Trust Wallet is also warning users not to engage with any messages

The vulnerability affects version 2.68 of the multi-chain, non-custodial wallet, which has close to one million users on the Chrome Web Store. Users are advised to switch to version 2.69 as soon as possible by installing the update from the official Chrome Web Store listing. Trust Wallet is also warning users not to engage with any messages unless they come from its official channels. The company clarified that mobile-only users and those using other browser extension versions are not affected. Meanwhile, blockchain security firm SlowMist revealed that version 2.68 contained malicious code capable of scanning all wallets stored in the extension and prompting a mnemonic phrase request for each one.
