Prior known-ignored disclosure

Evidence summary #

No evidence that Ethena has received a disclosed vulnerability report and ignored it prior to an exploit. No smart contract exploits have occurred, making this criterion not applicable by construction (no post-mortem exists that could document a prior-ignored disclosure). No public forum posts or researcher disclosures claiming an ignored report were found in available OSINT. The Apr 2026 bridge suspension was triggered by a third-party exploit (Kelp DAO) — not an Ethena-specific ignored disclosure.

Methodology #
