Serious bug found on XRP Ledger, no funds lost

A serious bug was discovered on the XRP Ledger, though it did not result in any actual damages, CoinDesk reported. The vulnerability, found in the signature verification logic of a proposed batch amendment, could have allowed an attacker to steal funds without a private key. The flaw was discovered and reported by the AI security tool Apex. No funds were compromised because the amendment was still in the validator voting phase and had not yet been activated on the mainnet.
