On March 10, BlockSec monitoring systems detected a suspicious transaction targeting the MT-WBNB liquidity pool on Binance Smart Chain (BSC), resulting in an estimated loss of roughly $242,000. The exploit stemmed from a flaw in the protocol’s buyer restriction mechanism: Under deflationary mode, normal buy operations would revert, but the router and trading pair were whitelisted—allowing the attacker to bypass restrictions by executing router swaps and liquidity removals to acquire MT tokens from the pair. The attacker then sold MT to accumulate a "pendingBurnAmount," called the `distributeFees()` function to directly burn MT from the liquidity pair (artificially inflating MT’s price), and finally swapped MT back to WBNB to lock in profits. Additionally, a recommended rule permitting transfers of the first 0.2 MT bypassed the buyer restriction, further enabling the attacker to execute the exploit.
