Common Solidity Vulnerabilities Checklist

Check these 8 vulnerabilities before deploying any smart contract. Free reference.

1. Reentrancy

  • Checks-Effects-Interactions pattern
  • ReentrancyGuard from OpenZeppelin
  • Avoid external calls before state changes

2. Overflow/Underflow

  • Use Solidity 0.8+ (built-in checks)
  • SafeMath for older versions

3. Access Control

  • Ownable or AccessControl (OpenZeppelin)
  • Never use tx.origin for auth

4. Flash Loan Attacks

  • Use TWAP oracles
  • Circuit breakers for price changes

5. Front-Running (MEV)

  • Commit-reveal schemes
  • Flashbots integration

6. Oracle Manipulation

  • Chainlink oracles only
  • Validate stale data

7. Denial of Service

  • No unbounded loops
  • Pull-over-push payments

8. Unsafe Delegatecall

  • Never delegatecall to untrusted addresses
  • EIP-1967 proxy storage
