Measuring CEX-DEX Extracted Value and Searcher Profitability: the Darkest of the MEV Dark Forest

This paper provides a comprehensive empirical analysis of the economics and dynamics behind arbitrages between centralized and decentralized exchanges CEX-DEX on Ethereum. We refine heuristics to identify arbitrage transactions from on-chain data and introduce a robust empirical framework to...

Insecurity through Obscurity: Veiled Vulnerabilities in Closed-Source Contracts

Most blockchains cannot hide the binary code of programs i.e., smart contracts running on them. To conceal proprietary business logic and to potentially deter attacks, many smart contracts are closed-source and employ layers of obfuscation. However, we demonstrate that such obfuscation can obscur...

CVE-2024-25731

The Elink Smart eSmartCam com.cn.dq.ipc application 2.1.5 for Android contains hardcoded AES encryption keys that can be extracted from a binary file. Thus, encryption can be defeated by an attacker who can observe packet data e.g., over Wi-Fi...

Using block.timestamp as the deadline/expiry invites MEV

Lines of code 307 Vulnerability details Passing block.timestamp as the expiry/deadline of an operation does not mean "require immediate execution" - it means "whatever block this transaction appears in, I'm comfortable with that block's timestamp". Providing this value means that a malicious mine...
