XRP Ledger's Latest Update Targets a Potential Token Exploit
A new XRP Ledger (
@XRP) $XRP amendment has closed a potential weakness in its token issuance system.
The flaw involved delegated accounts permitted to burn tokens but not issue them. Under certain conditions, a zero-balance burn-only payment could trigger unauthorized issuance.
Called fixCleanup3_4_0, the amendment strengthens token issuance permissions and fixes issues affecting automated market makers.
It also improves liquidity withdrawals, token clawbacks and asset calculations within Single Asset Vaults.
The update also addresses invalid AMM auction bids and improves liquidity pool operations.
