This may be a fatal blow to NEO, but I have not seen any dramatic fluctuations in NEO on the market. NEO has also fallen sharply due to the decline in bitcoin. I think this kind of vulnerability can be avoided, it will not affect the price of NEO. Only Bitcoin affects NEO.

It's specifically related to use of RPC. Here's something to be safe of before a patch (as mentioned by yubioh).
1. Upgrade to the latest NEO-CLI client;
2. Try not to use RPC function, and manually change the address of “BindAddress” to “127.0.0.1”;
3. If RPC must be called for necessity, try changing the port number of RPC, leveraging the https-based port of JSON-PRC, or putting up a firewall.
