TLDR

An attacker reused 74 signatures from failed transactions to drain nine GalaChain wallets, CryptoSlate reports. Some signatures were 55 days old; the tokens taken included about 2 billion GALA. The outlet says the flaw shows how signatures that remain public and replayable after failed transactions can let attackers turn old user approvals into fresh withdrawals.
