RE: Keys Defender -- Compromised ACTIVE private key successfully recovered !! [$ 28,000 account 💸]

So how exactly was they key exposed?

Was it accidentally included in the memo?

I don't imagine it was derived from the transaction signature or something like that.

Correct. Most of the times they get leaked in transfer memos, posts and comments. I found a couple in other types of operations too though (eg. account_update).
