A security concern has emerged around IPOR following analysis from on-chain monitoring systems. The issue centers on a smart contract delegation mechanism implemented through EIP-7702, where an EOA account operated by the project team has delegated control to an underlying contract. According to the alert, this delegated contract carries a vulnerability that could potentially enable unauthorized external actions.

This type of vulnerability warrants attention from users and liquidity providers interacting with the protocol. EIP-7702, while enabling more sophisticated account abstraction patterns, requires careful implementation to avoid unintended access vectors. The specific risk vector in this case appears to stem from improper permission boundaries in the delegated contract logic.

Projects leveraging advanced Ethereum standards should conduct thorough security audits before deployment, particularly when implementing delegation patterns that grant external execution capabilities. This incident underscores the importance of multi-layer security reviews in DeFi infrastructure.

Oh no, IPOR has caused trouble again? EIP-7702 is basically a permissions management issue, the team was just lazy.

Damn, is it delegation again? These project teams really need to brush up on their knowledge.

Once again, there's an issue with the delegation mechanism. EIP-7702 really needs to be used with caution...

Is IPOR having issues again? The EIP-7702 stuff is indeed prone to problems; if delegation permissions aren't handled properly, that's a big issue... Now we have to wait for a security patch again.

Is IPOR having issues again? EIP-7702 looks pretty risky, I don't even understand the permission boundaries... --- Another project that claims "we value security" but didn't pass the audit, I really can't hold it anymore. --- Delegation is indeed a risky operation that can easily backfire, no wonder I didn't touch it from the start. --- Wait, is this another permission issue? How exactly are DeFi security audits conducted... --- Contract vulnerabilities can still be played like this? Hurry up and withdraw your funds, everyone. --- How many times have I said it, new standards mean new risks, yet some people still fall into the trap. --- This round of IPOR is really uncertain... --- EIP-7702 looks advanced, but in reality, it's just opening a backdoor for hackers, right? --- Now it's all good, let's see who will run away first.

ngl, this EIP-7702 delegation thing is giving me flashbacks to like three different exploits my students got rekt on... permission boundaries r genuinely the sneakiest attack surface nobody talks about enough tbh
