October Security Roundup:
177 vulnerabilities found across Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, Monad, and other major chains.
• 43 of them were critical or high severity.
• 10 critical, 33 high severity, 45 medium severity.
With 43 high-to-critical vulnerabilities in a single month, the cost of skipping security review far exceeds the audit fee. One exploit can end a project overnight.
Each chain has unique security considerations. What's safe on Ethereum might be vulnerable on Solana. Teams building cross-chain need chain-specific expertise, not generic smart contract knowledge.
If you're building in Web3, security audits should be in your budget before marketing is.
Security isn't overhead. It's the product.
