Objectives

⭐ Define the process of the internal security audit following all the best practices in the domain

⭐ Present the results of our audit

Summary

Audit Process

The audit is an in-depth analysis of a particular piece of source code covering security and logical issues using static and manual analysis methods. The document aims to the results of findings: vulnerabilities, severity/difficulty, potential exploit scenarios, and recommended fixes. It also provides subjective insights into code quality, documentation, and testing.

This section aims to present key points of how the audit was executed.

1. Specification analysis

Understanding in depth the purpose of the project, the architecture, and the features of every contract is the key entry to a successful audit.

• Checklist:

2. Static analysis

• Slither
• Other tools to consider

<aside> ⚠️ Disclaimer - Be mindful of issues that automated tools cannot easily find:

• Lack of privacy: everyone else can see your transactions while they're queued in the pool
• Front running transactions
• Cryptographic operations
• Risky interactions with external DeFi components

All these issues will be covered in the manual review presented in the next section
