Trezor Discovered Hidden Hardware Implantation, Possibly Designed to Steal Mnemonics
2026-11-14 00:32:33
According to CoinMeta, Trezor reports that hidden hardware implants were found in three Safe wallets sold by Cryptobilis, which are capable of stealing mnemonic phrases. These implants copy phrases from the wallet screens and send them to attackers over mobile networks. Fortunately, none of the three wallet owners have reported any loss of funds so far. Firmware update 2.13.1 has prevented the identified implants from functioning, but it cannot recover the already stolen mnemonic phrases. Trezor recommends that users who purchased Trezor through Cryptobilis since March should: 1. Transfer their funds to a new wallet and use new mnemonic phrases; 2. Not set up any unused wallets from Cryptobilis and never enter the existing mnemonic phrases; 3. Retain their devices and contact Trezor support for a replacement; 4. Never share their mnemonic phrases, as Trezor will never request them. The investigation is still ongoing.
