Meet @retrimentum from @upshot_cards From selling World of Warcraft Gold, to building prediction markets on Base in the form of digital trading cards This is his story ↓

Printr is the only launchpad on ETH. Let that sink in.

BREAKING: Printr CEO drops alpha a $PRINT community presale and airdrop will be happening "We're about to make some huge announcements in the coming days, so I guess I could share some alpha here. We will be planning to do a community sale so that all of our supporters and believers can be part of the journey. We're going to be raising some money and letting the community participate before we TGE so people can invest in the future PRINT token." "And yes, we will definitely be doing an airdrop. I know nobody believes anyone anymore because everyone said there's an airdrop and nobody did it. So I won't promise you guys anything. Just watch our actions."

We spent months listening to the trenches. Then we rebuilt everything. Introducing Printr V2: Proof of Belief. 🧵

Great time speaking at @summit_defi during @EFDevcon in Argentina🇦🇷! Some comments said the talk went at a rapid pace with overwhelming information on fuzzing technology. Here's the a recap of my talk: --------------------------------------------------- Part A: Understanding of Exploits & Challenges of Smart Contract Fuzzing --------------------------------------------------- Key Insights and Core Concepts: Value Extraction Exploit: At its core, exploits in DeFi are characterized by two-step optimization process: 1. Sequence generation: Deciding which state-changing smart contract functions to invoke and in what order. 2. Parameter mutation: Continuously optimizing input parameters for these functions to trigger vulnerabilities. - Fuzzing and State Change: The goal is to modify the state via sequences and parameters that lead to an exploit. - Feasibility of fuzzing: Dimensionality Reduction. Real-world examples of loop-based exploits and various types of reducible actions in practice. Challenges of Smart Contracts Fuzzing in Testcase generations: - State Explosion: The combinatorial explosion of possible function sequences and states. - Multi-contract dependencies: Protocols often span multiple smart contracts interacting with one another. - Proxy contracts and storage separation: Logic and data stored across different contracts complicate state tracking. - External Calls: Protocols may invoke external contracts, adding layers of complexity and uncertainty. Current Approach for Testcase generations: - Sequence-based approach: Pseudo-random sequence mutation with Read-After-Write (RAW) relationship construction by leveraging SLOAD and SSTORE opcode. - Custom Invariants/Property-based testing/specifications: Auditors with expert knowledge can specify testcases with deep understanding of the program under test (PUT). - Snapshot-based approach: Exploring interesting states and mutating based on chosen corpus Challenges of Smart Contracts Fuzzing in Input Parameters generations: - Common specific ABI-specific input types: String and address types are uniquely defined. - Dynamic input types: dynamic array type and dynamic tuple...etc. - Complex input types: Dynamic tuples, arrays, and compressed calldata increase fuzzing difficulty. Current Approach for Input parameter generations: - LibAFL with Havoc Strategy assisted with abi-type mutation: (bitflip, RandMutator, …etc) - Coverage-based feedback mechanism: Code-coverage metrics, distance-metrics. - Optimization algorithms: Leveraging algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization, Stochastic gradient descent, Genetic algorithms and learning-based methods. Fuzzing Jargon and Framework: - Argument Initialization: Setting initial input values for fuzz testing. - Sequence Generation: Creating sequences of contract calls to test. - Mutation: Modifying input parameters for subsequent fuzzing iterations. - Feedback Mechanism: Metrics like code coverage or distance to branch conditions that guide mutations. - Oracle: In the fuzzing context, defines what constitutes a failure or exploit (not to be confused with price oracles). - Scheduling: The energy allocation in the fuzzing process. --------------------------------------------------- Part B: Proposed Solution - Three-Layer Fuzzing Framework --------------------------------------------------- 1. Language Model (LM)-Guided Fuzzing - Use LLMs for static and dynamic analysis to guide fuzzing intelligently. Four key components: - Taint Analysis: Tracking data flow to identify relevant inputs. - External Call Trace Analysis: Understanding call hierarchies and dependencies. - Compressed Data Generation: Generating complex calldata inputs. - Dynamic Runtime Information: Observing runtime behavior to guide mutation. Example: Using an LLM to identify vulnerable code lines and map them to control flow graph (CFG) basic blocks to target fuzzing efforts. - LLM aids in linking caller and callee functions, understanding which input parameters affect nested calls—crucial for mutating the correct parameters in complex functions like batchSwap. 2. State-Based Fuzzing Approach - CFG-guided fuzzing with three phases: --- Identify the basic block corresponding to a vulnerable branch. --- Analyze opcode-level conditions (e.g., JUMPI, comparison opcodes) to discover which storage or arguments influence branch decisions. --- Use distance metrics on storage and arguments to guide input mutation. - Maintain a state pool: A repository of interesting blockchain states encountered during fuzzing, enabling reuse and combination to increase coverage. - Introduce state diversity: Combine states from different execution paths to explore more scenarios. 3. GPU-Accelerated EVM Execution - Transform smart contract bytecode into GPU-parallelizable code to massively speed up fuzzing. - Enables running multiple fuzzing instances concurrently, enhancing exploration of the state space. --------------------------------------------------- This recap is intentionally concise — the full talk goes much deeper. Watch it here if you want the unfiltered version: youtube.com/watch?v=DidSdyN1…. I'm genuinely curious: → Which of the three layers (LLM-guided, state-pool CFG, or GPU acceleration) excites you most? → Have you already hit one of the fuzzing pain points I described in production? → Which of the open-ended questions the talk implicitly raises do you believe will shape the next 1-3 years of smart contract fuzzing? → Or any topics in AI / Security :]!
