Summary

Allbridge is a cross-chain bridging protocol founded in 2021 that operates Allbridge Classic and Allbridge Core, supporting stablecoin transfers across more than 20 blockchains. The protocol has suffered three separate security incidents since its launch: a $573K flash loan exploit on BNB Chain in April 2023, a $1.65M flash loan attack on its Solana deployment in July 2026, and a $191K CCTP router exploit on Base in August 2026 involving forged Circle attestation messages. The recurrence of similar vulnerability classes across deployments — and the failure to apply 2023 remediations to all active chains — raises systemic concerns about the protocol's security review and deployment practices.
