For those unfamiliar with this incident, we advise referring to our earlier reports (1, 2).
Ledger recommends that users who executed transactions on December 14, 2023, via compromised decentralized applications, should cancel all previously authorized transactions. This action is suggested to further reduce the repercussions of the harmful software.
Additionally, it has been specified that starting from June next year, users will no longer have the capability to execute blind signatures with Ledger devices.
