The security assessment focused on identifying potential vulnerabilities in:

  • Anti-bot protection mechanisms
  • Transfer limitations and restrictions
  • Owner privileges and access controls
  • Compliance with ERC-20 standards
  • Gas optimization
  • Potential attack vectors
  • Transaction fee mechanisms

2 Medium Risk IssuesPotential reentrancy and access control issues
1 Low Risk IssueMinor timestamp dependency issue

The identified medium-risk issues were addressed by the development team before the contract deployment.

Recommendations & Conclusion

The HashKode security team found the HKShield token contract to be well-structured with robust security measures. The anti-bot protection mechanisms have been implemented effectively.

Our recommendations included:

  • Implementing the Checks-Effects-Interactions pattern to prevent reentrancy
  • Adding a time lock for critical owner functions
  • Enhancing event emission for better transparency

All recommendations were implemented by the development team before the final deployment.

Final Security Score

(4/5) Very Good
