Update (rsETH): A legacy function in the RSETHPool contract previously allowed the BRIDGER_ROLE (assigned to an EOA) to send all funds in the contract to itself and bridge the asset to L1. This resulted in a significant risk for users and the Aave DAO, as a malicious takeover of the wallet with that role could have rendered rsETH undercollateralized.

Following our communication with the Kelp DAO team, they have successfully addressed the identified concern by deploying a contract upgrade (transaction link) which deprecated the vulnerable function. We appreciate their swift response and commitment to protocol security.
