Investigating Propagated Vulnerabilities from Ethereum to Layer-2 Blockchains

Explore a comprehensive conference talk that delves into the propagation of vulnerabilities from Ethereum to Layer-2 blockchain networks. Learn about the architectural relationships between Ethereum and its Layer-2 solutions, including BSC, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, and Base. Discover BlockScope, a novel tool designed for vulnerability detection, and understand its implementation across various blockchain networks. Examine 15 zero-day vulnerabilities discovered across BSC, Optimism, Base, and Mantle networks through detailed analysis and real-world examples. Presented by Dr. Daoyuan Wu, a Research Assistant Professor specializing in blockchain security, and Dr. Ning Liu, an Associate Professor focused on AI governance and digital security, this 52-minute presentation offers valuable insights into blockchain security vulnerabilities and introduces BlockScope as an open-source tool for the security community.
