Wie es funktioniert

Attackers manipulate the price of an asset on a low-liquidity venue that feeds an oracle, then exploit the incorrect price on the target protocol. Time-weighted and decentralized oracles resist manipulation. Flash loans amplify the attack.

Warum es wichtig ist

Oracle manipulation undermines the integrity of lending, derivatives, and stablecoins. It is a central security concern in DeFi. Robust oracle design is critical to protocol safety.
