The XRP Ledger fixed a vulnerability that could have allowed attackers to create and spend as much as 18 trillion XRP without proper funding, threatening the network’s fixed 100 billion XRP supply. The vulnerability dated to 2015 and created a risk that unauthorized XRP could enter circulation and be used in transactions. An emergency software fix was released Sept. 25.
