    System Overview

    TREX is an infrastructure to manage ERC20-based permissioned tokens by means of a decentralized validator. It is based on 4 pillars:

    • ONCHAINID →: external on-chain identity management system.

    • Validation Certificates: referred to as claims. These are ERC734 and ERC735 based certificates, emitted by trusted third parties and signed on-chain. Each of them is linked to a single ONCHAINID.

    • Compliance Rules: set of rules for a particular token, according to the issuer’s requirements and any additional feature. These are checked and managed by a transfer manager role.

    • Eligibility Verification System (EVS): validator that filters the P2P transactions of permissioned tokens, according to the claims each peer holds and the compliance rules of the tokens. These rules are linked to the identities of transaction receivers and the global distribution of tokens at a certain time.

    Privileged roles

    • The owner and the agent roles have huge control over the contract’s properties, including pausing, unpausing, minting, burning, forced transfers, adding/removing agents/compliances, changing the implementation, and so on.

    Executive Summary

    Documentation quality

    The total Documentation quality score is 8 out of 10.

    • White paper is provided.

    • Functional requirements are clearly defined.

    • Technical description is provided, but not for all contracts (i.e. TREXFactory and proxy approach).

    • NatSpec implementation in Smart Contracts.

    Code quality

    The total Code quality score is 9 out of 10.

    • The code duplicates commonly known contracts instead of reusing them (ERC20).

    • The development environment is configured.

    Test coverage

    Code coverage of the project is 83.64% (branch coverage).

    • Deployment and basic user interactions are covered with tests.

    • Negative cases coverage is present.

    • Interactions by several users are not tested thoroughly.

    Security score

    Upon auditing, the code was found to contain 2 critical, 4 high, 4 medium, and 12 low severity issues. Out of these, 18 issues have been addressed and resolved, leading to a Security score of 10 out of 10.

    All identified issues are detailed in the “Findings” section of this report.

    Summary

    The comprehensive audit of the customer's smart contract yields an overall score of 9. This score reflects the combined evaluation of documentation, code quality, test coverage, and security aspects of the project.

    Risks

    The repository contains out-of-scope contracts, the secureness and reliability of which could not be verified by the current audit.

    Identify vulnerabilities in your smart contracts.

    Appendix 1. Severity Definitions

    When auditing smart contracts, Hacken is using a risk-based approach that considers Likelihood, Impact, Exploitability and Complexity metrics to evaluate findings and score severities.

    Reference on how risk scoring is done is available through the repository in our Github organization:

    Severity

    Description

    Critical
    Critical vulnerabilities are usually straightforward to exploit and can lead to the loss of user funds or contract state manipulation.

    High
    High vulnerabilities are usually harder to exploit, requiring specific conditions, or have a more limited scope, but can still lead to the loss of user funds or contract state manipulation.

    Medium
    Medium vulnerabilities are usually limited to state manipulations and, in most cases, cannot lead to asset loss. Contradictions and requirements violations. Major deviations from best practices are also in this category.

    Low
    Major deviations from best practices or major Gas inefficiency. These issues will not have a significant impact on code execution, do not affect security score but can affect code quality score.
