Huobi Token (HT) Smart Contract Security Audit Report

Are Your Funds Safe?

 

1. In scope

2. Findings

In total, 3 issues were reported including:

  • 1 medium severity issues.

  • 2 low severity issues.

2.1. Known vulnerabilities of ERC-20 token

Severity: low.

Description:

  • It is possible to double withdrawal attack. More details here
  • Lack of transaction handling mechanism issue. WARNING! This is a very common issue and it already caused millions of dollars losses for lots of token users! More details here.

Recommendation:

Add the following code to the transfer(_to address, ...) function:

require( _to != address(this) );

2.2. ERC20 Compliance: false instead of throw

Severity: medium.

Description:

From ERC-20 specification:

The function SHOULD throw if the _from account balance does not have enough tokens to spend.

But in this implementation it just returns false. This can lead to serious consequences. Because checking the return value of this function is rare.
For example, external contract may use this token contract as:

HTToken.transferFrom(recipient, this, value);
points[recipient] += value;

In this case recipient can get any value of points, but he may not have enough money and the code will succeed.

Code snippet:

  • transfer(), line 53
  • transferFrom(), line 63

Recommendation

The function SHOULD throw if the _from account balance does not have enough tokens to spend.

2.3. Zero address checking

Severity: low.

Description:

There is no zero address checking in functions transfer and transferFrom.

3. Conclusion

The audited smart contract has medium severity issue and can not be deployed. Reported issues must be fixed prior to the usage of this contract.
