token::withdraw function failed to validate that max_fee was nonnegative. By setting max_fee = -quantity, the attacker reduced the total account debit to zero while retaining the full withdrawal amount.

Because the configured withdrawal fee was zero, the fee check did not reject the transaction. The resulting withdrawal logs triggered real payouts from the bridge on Solana and Ethereum.
