Execution Logic Bypass describes a situation where the intended sequence of operations or rules within a smart contract or protocol is circumvented. This allows an actor to achieve an outcome not permitted by the system’s design. Such a bypass often exploits subtle vulnerabilities in the code, leading to unauthorized asset transfers, privilege escalation, or other unintended consequences. It directly undermines the reliability of automated agreements.
Context
Preventing execution logic bypasses is a primary concern in smart contract development and auditing. Security researchers continuously analyze protocols for such vulnerabilities, as their exploitation can result in significant financial losses and erode trust in decentralized applications. The focus remains on rigorous testing and formal verification methods to enhance code security.
