About Valiant

Valiant is building a next-generation launchpad platform on Fogo, designed to provide projects with secure, efficient, and transparent token launch mechanisms. Their platform leverages Fogo's high-performance infrastructure to deliver seamless token launches with robust security guarantees and fair distribution mechanisms.

Security Requirements

As Valiant prepared to launch their launchpad platform, ensuring the security and reliability of their smart contract infrastructure was paramount. The team engaged FailSafe to conduct a comprehensive security audit focused on their Fogo smart contracts responsible for token launches, vesting mechanisms, and fund management.

The audit scope encompassed critical security considerations including token distribution logic, vesting schedules, administrative controls, fund handling, and protection against common launchpad vulnerabilities such as front-running and unfair allocation.

Audit Methodology

FailSafe's security team conducted a multi-layered audit approach tailored to Fogo's architecture and Valiant's specific launchpad requirements:

Threat Modeling

Identified critical assets, enumerated potential threats, and assessed vulnerabilities specific to launchpad and token distribution models.

Manual Code Review

Line-by-line analysis of business logic, access controls, token distribution mechanisms, and Fogo-specific security considerations.

Architecture Analysis

Evaluated trust assumptions, fund flow patterns, and the interaction between various smart contract components.

Edge Case Testing

Rigorous testing for extreme inputs, operational scenarios, and potential attack vectors including front-running, reentrancy, and allocation manipulation.

Confidential Partnership

In accordance with Valiant's security and business requirements, the detailed findings and specific vulnerabilities identified during this audit remain confidential. Our partnership focused on addressing critical security considerations across multiple severity levels, with the development team implementing fixes and documented acknowledgments for all identified issues.

The audit process included comprehensive validation of fixes, multiple rounds of review, and collaborative remediation support to ensure the platform met production security standards.

Partnership Impact

Through close collaboration with Valiant's development team, FailSafe provided comprehensive security guidance that strengthened the platform's security posture. The engagement covered:

  • Security architecture review and recommendations for Fogo smart contract design patterns
  • Identification and remediation of security vulnerabilities in token distribution and fund handling logic
  • Documentation improvements and operational security guidance
  • Best practices for launchpad security and fair token distribution
