If it's a library normally you'd share a security patch with important customers privately, if they're otherwise going to lose $300 million. I thought this was the service's own repo though.

Smart Contracts always have their source openly available on the chain, so it’s not that easy

But that's also the executable form of it - just patch it first, and then people can't hack it when they see fixes land in the +1 release somewhere else.

I could be wrong but I believe only the compiled machine code is on-chain, you don't have to publish the source

this just happens to be a project that does
