The SantaToken.sol contract uses an external library called Solmate ( which seems to be the legit Solmate library) but the Forge remappings points to a hacked version of Solmate library instead.
by using this hacked library, the obvious attacker 0x815F577F1c1bcE213c012f166744937C889DAF17 (probably the creator and deployer of SantaToken) is basically bypassing the allowance system in the transferFrom method.
Pretty high. They can steal any amount of tokens from anyone
they hid the hacked library by using Forge remappings system so in the SantaToken.sol everything seems ok.
Some sneaky elf has changed this library to a corrupted one where his wallet address skips all the approval checks for SantaToken! Shenanigans here - https://github.com/PatrickAlphaC/solmate-bad/blob/c3877e5571461c61293503f45fc00959fff4ebba/src/tokens/ERC20.sol#L88
