Coinspect has disclosed a wallet vulnerability called Ill Bloom, and the uncomfortable part is where the weakness lives.
The exposed path is recovery-phrase generation, separate from blockchain consensus or a phishing approval request.
The problem sits at the moment certain software wallets generated recovery phrases. If the randomness behind that process was weak, the resulting phrase may be far easier to guess than it was supposed to be.
That can turn an old wallet into a live risk years later.
Today we are publishing the first Ill Bloom findings: affected-address checker + on-chain analysis to help users identify exposed addresses and protect their assets.
