A Dogecoin developer and contributor to Libdogecoin, Dogecoin’s simple C library of building blocks, who goes by the name “inevitable360” on Twitter, has also debunked the claims while urging users to upgrade their Dogecoin Core Wallet and node to version 1.14.6.
The misinformation stemmed from a tweet by a crypto-focused Twitter account Whalechart that “reports have emerged that hundreds of crypto networks, including Dogecoin, are vulnerable to serious Rab13s security flaws. This could impact billions of dollars worth of digital assets.”
On March 13, a security disclosure for Dogecoin Core was published by Halborn Security. The vulnerabilities highlighted by the security firm, including that of “Rab13s,” were fixed in version 1.14.6 last year. This fix was also confirmed by Halborn engineers.
