that, according to DeFi researcher @Zun2025 posted on X platform, "MetaMask hired a DPRK-linked hacker as a developer without even conducting a proper background check that could have revealed his identity.The hacker's GitHub username is imyugioh, and he has been publicly listed on the Lazarus Group website since September 2025, yet MetaMask still hired this individual in March 2026. Source: lazarus.group/team/mauro-liu. Imagine that one of the largest wallets granted core code repository access to someone already on a publicly known list of DPRK hackers. Now think about what might happen to those small protocols with absolutely no security teams."Earlier reports stated that a North Korean hacker, Tyler Knapp, infiltrated the MetaMask team. He entered MetaMask through a long-term cooperating human resources supplier via an outsourcing arrangement, bypassing the background checks of the company's direct recruitment process. He worked at the company for a month and participated in the development of the wallet's fiat on/off ramp functionality. During this period, his IP address and behavioral anomalies were detected by the company's security monitoring. The company immediately revoked all his access permissions and suspended the release of all products he had worked on. No substantial data or financial losses have been caused so far.
