SlowMist has reported that UniLend Finance lost $197,600 in a redeem process hack that exposed a vulnerability in it. With that, they had a chance to control the shares and artificially lift the value of the collaterals used as security.

Users are encouraged to be on the lookout for future announcements from UniLend concerning the remediation effort.
