Design Flaw Attack is when attackers exploit inherent vulnerabilities in a system's architecture to breach security or disrupt operations. These flaws often arise from oversights during the design phase, such as inadequate validation, poor encryption methods, or flawed logic. Attackers identify these weaknesses to gain unauthorized access, manipulate transactions, or cause system failures. In crypto/fiat exchanges, such attacks can lead to financial losses and reputational damage. Addressing design flaws early and conducting thorough security audits can help prevent such vulnerabilities from being exploited.
