DESCRIPTION
From February 27, 2023 to March 24, 2023, Catalabs engaged Veridise to review the security of their project: Catalyst. The review covered the on-chain contracts responsible for implementing the protocol logic and handling Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) packets. Veridise conducted the assessment over 12 person-weeks, with 3 engineers reviewing code over 4 weeks. The auditing strategy involved a tool-assisted analysis of the source code performed by Veridise engineers as well as extensive manual auditing.
Audit Report
SCOPE
The scope of this audit is limited to the evm/src folder of the source code provided by the Catalyst developers, which contains the smart contract implementation of the Catalyst. Specifically, the Veridise auditors audited the new file: evm/src/CatalystChainInterface.sol and verified that the changes to the Vault contracts either didn’t change the behavior of the protocol, or were safe changes to make. Methodology.
Veridise auditors reviewed the reports of previous audits for Catalyst, inspected the provided tests, and read the Catalyst documentation. They then began a manual audit of the code assisted by static analyzers. During the audit, the Veridise auditors regularly met with the Catalyst developers to ask questions about the code
