NEAR Intents general manager Alex Shevchenko said the team has identified the person behind the security flaw that led to about $3.8 million in user losses on Thursday, Oct. 1. He gave the individual 48 hours to return the funds under a "responsible disclosure" framework and published three wallet addresses to receive Bitcoin, BNB, and Solana. Shevchenko said this was the attacker’s last chance to use that mechanism, adding that the window would close after 48 hours. Earlier on Thursday, NEAR Intents suspended related services after finding a vulnerability in how the Omni deposit and withdrawal infrastructure interacted with NEAR Intents smart contracts.

Shevchenko also published three separate wallet addresses for receiving Bitcoin, BNB, and Solana. He said: "You understand how responsible disclosure works better than most people — this is your last chance to use that mechanism. After 48 hours, that window will close."
On Thursday, NEAR Intents suspended the affected services after discovering "a vulnerability in the interaction between the Omni deposit and withdrawal infrastructure and the NEAR Intents smart contracts."
