Trezor: Hardware Implants Found in 3 Safe 5 Devices

According to TechFlow, on Nov. 12, Trezor said its investigation found that 3 Safe 5 hardware wallets purchased through reseller CryptoBilis contained implants, and none of the three device owners lost funds. One device has been inspected in a laboratory, while the other two were identified based on photos provided by users.

The 3 devices were purchased between Aug. 20 and Sep. 23, 2026; Trezor said no implants were found in other inspected reseller devices or other models. The company released firmware 2.13.1 on Nov. 11 to prevent the discovered implants from capturing screen content, and said it had reduced its reseller network by about 80%.

Trezor advised CryptoBilis customers to still move funds to wallets created with new recovery phrases, because the firmware update cannot protect backups that had already been compromised.
