Solana-based decentralized exchange Raydium announced on Wednesday that an exploit targeting its legacy AMM V3 program resulted in the loss of approximately $1.34 million in assets. The attacker drained assets from inactive liquidity pools, including RAY-SOL, USDC-RAY, and SRM-RAY pairs, with early estimates indicating around 150,000 RAY, 5,600 SOL, and nearly 900,000 USDC were taken.
Raydium assured that all losses would be compensated by its treasury. The protocol clarified that the exploit affected an automated market maker program phased out in 2021 and no longer accessible through Raydium's interface. Consequently, current users were not impacted, and the DEX's SDK and DAPP do not support interactions with these legacy pools.
