Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability is classified as Integer Overflow (CWE-190), which allows attackers to cause unexpected behavior through arithmetic overflow. Vyper is a pythonic Smart Contract Language for the ethereum virtual machine. In affected versions, the return of <iface>.returns_int128() is not validated to fall within the bounds of int128. This issue can result in a misinterpretation of the integer value and lead to incorrect behavior. As of v0.3.0, <iface>.returns_int128() is validated in simple expressions, but not complex expressions. Users are advised to upgrade. There is no known workaround for this issue. Affected products include: Vyperlang Vyper.

Attack Technique

Integer overflow occurs when an arithmetic operation produces a result that exceeds the maximum value a given integer type can store.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
