Football.fun Penetration Testing

About Football.fun

Football.fun is an innovative Web3 prediction gaming platform that combines football fan engagement with blockchain technology. The platform enables users to participate in prediction games, collect digital player packs, and earn rewards through a gamified experience. Built with smart wallet infrastructure for seamless onboarding, Football.fun leverages account abstraction and gas sponsorship to provide a frictionless Web3 gaming experience for mainstream users.

Security Requirements

As a platform handling user funds, digital collectibles, and complex gaming mechanics, Football.fun required comprehensive security validation across their entire stack. The intersection of smart wallet technology, payment processing, and game logic presents unique attack surfaces that demand specialized testing approaches.

The engagement scope encompassed smart wallet infrastructure including account abstraction and gas sponsorship systems, payment processing flows, pack purchase and opening mechanics, referral systems, and external API integrations with third-party wallet and blockchain services.

Testing Methodology

FailSafe's security team conducted a comprehensive penetration testing engagement combining Web3-specific threat modeling with traditional application security testing:

Smart Wallet Security Assessment

Deep analysis of account abstraction implementation, paymaster configurations, and gas sponsorship mechanisms to identify potential fund drainage and abuse vectors.

Payment Flow Security

Assessment of payment processing logic, transaction signing mechanisms, and purchase validation to prevent financial manipulation and unauthorized transactions.

Game Logic & Economy Testing

Evaluation of pack opening mechanics, randomness generation, inventory management, and game state consistency to prevent exploitation and unfair advantages.

API & Infrastructure Security

Testing of authentication mechanisms, rate limiting, third-party API integrations, and infrastructure configurations to identify exposure risks and access control weaknesses.

Confidential Partnership

In accordance with Football.fun's security and business requirements, the detailed findings and specific vulnerabilities identified during this penetration testing engagement remain confidential. Our partnership focused on identifying and remediating security issues across multiple severity levels.

The engagement identified findings across multiple severity levels related to infrastructure security, transaction handling, and platform integrity. The Football.fun team demonstrated excellent responsiveness in addressing the identified vulnerabilities.

Partnership Impact

Through close collaboration with Football.fun's development team, FailSafe provided comprehensive security guidance that strengthened the platform's gaming infrastructure. The engagement covered:

Secure configuration of smart wallet infrastructure and paymaster systems to prevent gas sponsorship abuse and unauthorized fund access
Hardened payment processing flows with proper validation and signing mechanisms to prevent financial manipulation
Improved game state management and pack mechanics to ensure consistent user experience and prevent exploitation
Enhanced API security configurations and rate limiting to protect against abuse and denial-of-service scenarios
Strengthened referral system integrity with Sybil-resistant mechanisms to prevent fraudulent reward farming
