In a report published on November 11, 2026, at 09:27 (UTC+8), Foresight News said Bitcoin Lightning wallet and payment platform LNbits had released security update 1.7.0. LNbits warned that the vulnerability affects all earlier versions and urged users to upgrade immediately.
Upgrading alone may not be enough. LNbits said users whose credentials have already been exposed should reset their wallet keys and change related credentials. It also advised migrating servers if a breach is suspected.
LNbits founder Ben Arc said the team was working to respond after users and the team suffered losses. One user reported that an attacker created a new account on their LNbits instance and stole approximately 0.023 BTC.
