A few days ago we published the Contribution Smart Contract code for peer review. Backes Security and Research Technologies today released their security audit:

We are glad to report that besides the items that were identified — and that we worked through with them during the review period — no outstanding issues have been found and all concerns were addressed adequately.

Bug Bounty Reward

Smart contract security audits like this one, significantly reduce the risks of the smart contracts issues but they can not warrant bug-free code. Our Bug bounty program remains open with a reward of US$5'000 for discovery and responsible disclosure of issues that represent a tangible security threat for the contributions. Importantly, such bug reports need to classify as actually executable under a realistic attack scenario. Eligible bugs are:

  • Security threats: incorrect ETH/NET allocation
  • DoS: incorrect execution of the contracts through malicious actor (stuck in invalid, irrecoverable state)
  • Logical errors: issues in the contract that lead to significant deviation from specified intention and terms
