Description

#Summary:

A vulnerability has been identified in the Shardeum Core interface where attackers can manipulate URLs in displayed links by altering the ip parameter in the following endpoint:

`http://localhost:3000/log?ip=example.com&port=3000`

This vulnerability can still lead to phishing attacks by misleading users into clicking external links that they believe to be part of the Shardeum interface.
