Linea said some validators supporting its Yield Boost vault are exiting for security reasons following the MetaMask Staking incident. The project said vault funds and control remain unaffected, but net staking yield used for ecosystem incentives will temporarily decline while the validators are withdrawn and replaced. The team said it is closely monitoring the situation.
The update follows an earlier statement from MetaMask on Oct. 1. At the time, MetaMask said it was responding to a security incident affecting part of its infrastructure. The company also said it was coordinating with customers, partners, and security advisers, and was proactively exiting affected validators involved in non-custodial staking operations.
