Bitcoin Core patches vulnerability that could redirect funds

Original: Bitcoin Core’s new fix closes gap that could redirect funds without stealing keys

Bitcoin Core has released a fix addressing a security gap that could have allowed funds to be redirected without attackers ever obtaining users' private keys. The flaw did not involve key theft, making it notable because most reported crypto exploits rely on compromised keys. Developers say the patch closes the vulnerability, and security researchers are discussing its implications for wallet safety across the network.

Why now: A newly patched vulnerability in Bitcoin's core software raised fresh concerns about security of funds stored on the network.
