A Code Logic Flaw is an error in the programming instructions of a smart contract or blockchain application that causes it to operate incorrectly. This defect is not a syntax error but rather a fault in the algorithm or intended behavior, leading to unintended outcomes. Such flaws can be exploited by malicious actors to manipulate system functions, drain funds, or disrupt protocol operations.
