Governance Attack attacks on Ethereum

An attacker acquired a majority of TOP supply, then created, voted and executed an Aragon governance proposal in one transaction to mint ~10 billion tokens and drain 944 WETH from a Balancer V1 pool.

Attacker bought a nominal CGT stake, exploited a MakerDAO-fork flaw to amplify voting power, then minted 1B CGT (~$16M) on Curio Governance.

~$1.3M at risk from abandoned Swerve Finance, a dormant Curve fork whose low-participation governance let an attacker pass a proposal to seize funds.

Tornado Cash DAO was hijacked after an attacker selfdestructed a passed proposal and redeployed malicious code at the same address, seizing 1.2M votes vs ~70K.

An attacker exploited an Audius contract-initializer flaw to self-delegate 10 trillion AUDIO and pass a malicious proposal that drained $6M from the treasury.
