The hack only impacted the WLEO contract itself - allowing the hacker to mint an unlimited amount of WLEOs.
An initial audit of the attack revealed that the WLEO minting transactions (the operations on the ETH blockchain that printed WLEOs) were signed with the actual private key used for the WLEO contract.

Oh boy! I guess I have a question. A weird one!! :D
Haha, I dunno, but after all these 'interesting' hacking events. I can't help that some funny and wild thoughts comes and penetrate deeply inside my convoluted brain.
So, here I go to throw a daring question in the air to see who catch it. };)
Couldn't I or anyone else for that matter, just create a (broken on purpose) Uniswap Wxxx smart contract on the ETH blockchain with whatever token I have invented. Then fund and fill the Uniswap liquidity pool with as many of my own Wxxx shitcoins over there. And regardless of whether new investors contributed to expanding the Uniswap liquidity pool of my own xxx token, since I am actually in possession and obviously I know the private key used for the Wxxx contract and also the private keys of my @wrapped-xxx account?
Couldn't it be I, me and myself the one who could easily try to mint & print an unlimited amount of Wxxxs signing these with the actual private key I used for the Wxxx contract looking to obtain some economic or financial benefit from the whole experience as quick as possible?
If this is possible, then it seems to me that the flaw somewhat would have to be found in the Uniswap platform or on the ETH blockchain itself.
Oh yeah, excuse me if I'm just lucubrating and musing pure nonsense here. I really don't understand much about these matters. But if someone finds out that any of this is viable. You better never forget that I was the one who launched the wild idea and I would be interested in partnering with you on the launch of your brandnew wrapped shitcoin on time. So don't forget to let me know in time.
Because otherwise you won't live long to tell about it. };)
