A script to audit your wallet for potential vulnerability due to interactions with insecure contract
Let's create a Crypto Auditor script that audits a user's cryptocurrency wallet for security vulnerabilities and best practices. We'll build this script step-by-step, and I'll provide you with the full source code.
Step 1: Choose a JavaScript library for interacting with the blockchain
For this script, we'll use the Web3.js library, which provides a JavaScript interface to the Ethereum blockchain. We'll use Web3.js to interact with the Ethereum blockchain and retrieve data about the user's wallet.
Step 2: Set up the project structure
Create a new folder for your project, and create the following files:
index.js
: This will be the main script file.config.js
: This will contain configuration settings for the script.wallet.js
: This will contain the wallet auditor logic.
Step 3: Install required dependencies
Run the following command in your terminal to install the required dependencies:
npm install web3
Step 4: Create the config.js
file
In the config.js
file, add the following code:
module.exports = {
// Ethereum node URL
ethereumNodeUrl: 'https://mainnet.infura.io/v3/YOUR_PROJECT_ID',
// Wallet address to audit
walletAddress: '0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc454e4438f44e',
// List of security vulnerabilities to check for
securityVulnerabilities: [
'insufficient-liquidity',
'unverified-contracts',
'unsecured-ERC20-tokens',
],
};
Replace YOUR_PROJECT_ID
with your actual Infura project ID.
Step 5: Create the wallet.js
file
In the wallet.js
file, add the following code:
const Web3 = require('web3');
const config = require('./config');
class WalletAuditor {
constructor(walletAddress) {
this.walletAddress = walletAddress;
this.web3 = new Web3(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider(config.ethereumNodeUrl));
}
async getWalletBalance() {
const balance = await this.web3.eth.getBalance(this.walletAddress);
return balance;
}
async getWalletTransactions() {
const transactions = await this.web3.eth.getTransactionCount(this.walletAddress);
return transactions;
}
async checkForInsufficientLiquidity() {
const balance = await this.getWalletBalance();
if (balance < 0.1) {
return {
vulnerability: 'insufficient-liquidity',
severity: 'high',
description: ' Wallet balance is low',
};
}
return null;
}
async checkForUnverifiedContracts() {
const transactions = await this.getWalletTransactions();
const unverifiedContracts = [];
for (const transaction of transactions) {
const contractAddress = transaction.to;
const contractCode = await this.web3.eth.getCode(contractAddress);
if (!contractCode) {
unverifiedContracts.push(contractAddress);
}
}
if (unverifiedContracts.length > 0) {
return {
vulnerability: 'unverified-contracts',
severity: 'medium',
description: `Unverified contracts found: ${unverifiedContracts.join(', ')}`,
};
}
return null;
}
async checkForUnsecuredERC20Tokens() {
const transactions = await this.getWalletTransactions();
const unsecuredTokens = [];
for (const transaction of transactions) {
const tokenAddress = transaction.to;
const tokenContract = await this.web3.eth.getContractAt(tokenAddress);
if (!tokenContract) {
unsecuredTokens.push(tokenAddress);
}
}
if (unsecuredTokens.length > 0) {
return {
vulnerability: 'unsecured-ERC20-tokens',
severity: 'low',
description: `Unsecured ERC20 tokens found: ${unsecuredTokens.join(', ')}`,
};
}
return null;
}
async auditWallet() {
const vulnerabilities = [];
for (const vulnerability of config.securityVulnerabilities) {
switch (vulnerability) {
case 'insufficient-liquidity':
const liquidityVulnerability = await this.checkForInsufficientLiquidity();
if (liquidityVulnerability) {
vulnerabilities.push(liquidityVulnerability);
}
break;
case 'unverified-contracts':
const unverifiedContractsVulnerability = await this.checkForUnverifiedContracts();
if (unverifiedContractsVulnerability) {
vulnerabilities.push(unverifiedContractsVulnerability);
}
break;
case 'unsecured-ERC20-tokens':
const unsecuredTokensVulnerability = await this.checkForUnsecuredERC20Tokens();
if (unsecuredTokensVulnerability) {
vulnerabilities.push(unsecuredTokensVulnerability);
}
break;
default:
console.log(`Unknown vulnerability: ${vulnerability}`);
}
}
return vulnerabilities;
}
}
module.exports = WalletAuditor;
This script defines a WalletAuditor
class that checks for three security vulnerabilities:
- Insufficient liquidity: The wallet balance is low.
- Unverified contracts: The wallet has interacted with unverified contracts.
- Unsecured ERC20 tokens: The wallet has unsecured ERC20 tokens.
Step 6: Create the index.js
file
In the index.js
file, add the following code:
const WalletAuditor = require('./wallet');
const walletAddress = config.walletAddress;
const walletAuditor = new WalletAuditor(walletAddress);
async function main() {
const vulnerabilities = await walletAuditor.auditWallet();
console.log('Vulnerabilities:');
for (const vulnerability of vulnerabilities) {
console.log(` ${vulnerability.vulnerability}: ${vulnerability.description} (Severity: ${vulnerability.severity})`);
}
}
main();
This script creates a new instance of the WalletAuditor
class and calls the auditWallet
method to check for security vulnerabilities. The results are then logged to the console.
