Smart Contract Dependency Audit

overview

CORE INFRASTRUCTURE

Custom Smart Contract Development

Secure, audited smart contracts built for your specific business logic and compliance needs.

We architect and deploy production-grade smart contracts that form the immutable backbone of your Web3 application. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing OpenZeppelin libraries and rigorous internal audits before any third-party review.

From tokenomics to governance, we translate complex requirements into efficient, gas-optimized code.

Token Systems: Custom ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 contracts with minting, vesting, and multi-chain bridging logic.
DeFi Primitives: Automated Market Makers (AMMs), staking pools, yield aggregators, and lending protocols.
Enterprise Logic: Custom compliance modules, KYC/AML integration, and multi-signature treasury management.
Full Lifecycle Support: Development, deployment, verification on Etherscan, and ongoing upgrade management via transparent proxies.

COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY ASSESSMENT

What Our AI-Powered Dependency Audit Analyzes

Our automated audit engine performs a deep, multi-layered analysis of your smart contract's external dependencies, identifying risks that manual reviews often miss. We deliver a prioritized report with actionable fixes.

External Library & Import Analysis

Identifies all imported libraries (OpenZeppelin, Chainlink, etc.), maps their version history, and flags known vulnerabilities (CVEs) and deprecated functions that could compromise your main contract.

EXPLORE

Oracles & Price Feed Risks

Evaluates the security and decentralization of integrated oracles (Chainlink, Pyth). Checks for stale data thresholds, single points of failure, and insufficient heartbeat monitoring that could lead to manipulation.

EXPLORE

Bridge & Cross-Chain Dependencies

Audits interactions with cross-chain bridges and messaging layers (Wormhole, LayerZero). Analyzes for trust assumptions, replay attack surfaces, and insufficient validation of incoming messages.

EXPLORE

AMM & DEX Integration Risks

Scans integrations with decentralized exchanges (Uniswap V3, Curve) and AMM routers. Identifies slippage risks, unchecked return values, and improper handling of fee-on-transfer or rebasing tokens.

EXPLORE

Governance & DAO Tool Dependencies

Reviews dependencies on governance frameworks (Compound Governor, OZ Governance). Flags issues with proposal timing, quorum bypasses, and privilege escalation in attached timelocks or executors.

EXPLORE

Upgradeability & Proxy Patterns

Analyzes upgrade mechanisms (Transparent vs UUPS Proxies, Beacon patterns) for storage collision risks, initialization vulnerabilities, and admin privilege centralization that could lead to rug pulls.

RISK MITIGATION

Why Proactively Audit Dependencies

Third-party libraries are the leading cause of critical vulnerabilities in DeFi. Our proactive audit identifies and remediates risks before they become exploits, securing your protocol's foundation.

Prevent Supply Chain Attacks

We analyze imported libraries (OpenZeppelin, Solmate) for known vulnerabilities and malicious updates, preventing incidents like the Ledger Connect Kit exploit. Our process includes dependency pinning and integrity verification.

EXPLORE

Ensure Upgrade Path Safety

Audit proxy patterns (Transparent/UUPS) and inherited upgradeable contracts to prevent storage collisions and function clashing during migrations, ensuring seamless, secure future upgrades.

Optimize Gas & Performance

Identify inefficient inherited functions and bloated bytecode from dependencies. We recommend optimized alternatives, reducing deployment and transaction costs by up to 40% compared to standard implementations.

Validate Integration Logic

Test the interaction between your custom code and external libraries for edge cases and unintended behaviors, preventing integration failures that automated tools often miss.

Comprehensive Compliance Check

Verify license compatibility (MIT, GPL) and regulatory adherence of all dependencies, mitigating legal risks and ensuring your project meets standards for institutional adoption.

Receive Actionable Remediation

Get a prioritized report with specific code fixes, secure alternative libraries, and configuration changes. We provide direct patches or guided implementation support.

Choose the Right Audit Strategy

Manual Review vs. AI-Driven Dependency Audit

A detailed comparison of traditional manual security reviews versus our AI-augmented dependency analysis, highlighting efficiency, coverage, and cost-effectiveness for Web3 projects.

Audit Dimension	Traditional Manual Review	Chainscore AI-Driven Audit
Time to Complete	4-8 weeks	3-5 business days
Average Cost	$25K - $100K+	$5K - $20K
Dependency Coverage	Manual, limited to known libraries	Automated, scans all imports & nested dependencies
Vulnerability Detection	Known CVEs, logic flaws	Known CVEs + novel patterns, version drift, deprecated code
False Positive Rate	Low (human-verified)	AI-tuned <5%, with expert triage
Audit Report Depth	High-level findings & recommendations	Line-by-line analysis, exploit PoC, remediation code
Ongoing Monitoring	None (point-in-time)	Continuous monitoring for new threats & dependency updates
Integration	One-off engagement	CI/CD pipeline integration, GitHub/GitLab alerts
Team Required	3-5 senior auditors	Our platform + 1-2 expert reviewers
