Incomplete Description of New Types of DeFi Attacks and Vulnerabilities #340

Description

@zethe7

In recent years, flash loan attacks, exploits using MEV (Miner/Maximal Extractable Value), DEX oracle manipulations, “sandwich” attacks, etc., have become popular.

Issue: Although many classic vulnerabilities (re-entrancy, integer overflow, frontrunning, etc.) are described in detail, newer DeFi attack types could be covered in more depth or placed in a dedicated section.

Suggestion: Expand the Known Attacks section or create a separate branch of the documentation that addresses current vulnerabilities related to DeFi protocols, flash loans, price manipulation, and oracles, as well as defense mechanisms (e.g., using TWAP oracles, Uniswap Oracle, oracle chains).
