LNbits Issues Emergency Patch After Reported Bitcoin Wallet Thefts

The remediation guidance matters as much as the patch itself: telling operators to rotate credentials signals that exposed keys may already be compromised, not merely that a bug exists. This shifts the burden onto self-hosted LNbits operators, whose security posture varies widely and who may lag on upgrades. The open question is how many deployments remain on vulnerable versions, and whether the reported thefts trace to a single flaw or to operator misconfiguration.
