</ul>
CertiK, a Web3 security firm, has issued a warning to iPhone users using the OKX crypto exchange app about a dangerous vulnerability. They advised the users to update to the latest app version immediately.
In an announcement on <a href="https://x.com/CertiK/status/1737110916699959433?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">X</a> (formerly Twitter), CertiK explained a critical issue that they found in the OKX iOS app.&nbsp;

The problem could lead to the loss of data and crypto assets. They stress the importance of updating the app for safety.
Immediately after the announcement, OKX team spun into action to fix the issue and provide an update.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
 Thanks <a href="https://twitter.com/CertiK?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Certik</a> for the note.
 We've completed the relevant upgrade &amp; this is no longer an issue. We have verified that this did not impact any customer assets.
 The fix has been deployed to iOS version 6.45.0 &amp; we recommend you update the app asap. <a href="https://t.co/5HfOnATPeu" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/5HfOnATPeu</a>

This warning is crucial as it comes at a time when there’s a rise in the loss of crypto assets due to hacks. In just one quarter of 2023, around $686 million was lost in crypto hacks.
CertiK has been actively issuing warnings about crypto security. They recently warned against some Telegram bot tokens, which seemed to be part of a scam.&nbsp;
Their analysis suggests over 40% of these telegram tokens might be involved in exit scams (rug pull), where creators disappear with investors’ funds.
