TRON DAO has successfully completed a thorough security evaluation of its Java-Tron client, conducted by ChainSecurity, a blockchain security firm.
The assessment examined crucial elements like the TRON Virtual Machine (TVM), consensus protocols, and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) communications to identify potential vulnerabilities affecting network performance. Notable concerns included transaction processing, block creation, and consensus activities.
Among the findings was a flaw related to PBFT messages that risked memory overload, which could lead to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks.
To mitigate this, the team implemented a system to process these messages only upon activation, preventing memory issues. Additionally, the team addressed the potential for attackers to censor valid fork blocks by introducing code updates to filter out invalid blocks, enhancing overall network stability.
Another issue involved the unnecessary processing of blocks lacking witness signatures, which wasted resources. Now, these unsigned blocks are promptly discarded to improve efficiency.
ChainSecurity’s founding partner commended TRON’s commitment to security, and TRON representatives emphasized the evaluation’s importance in fostering trust and resilience in the blockchain ecosystem. This proactive approach underscores TRON’s dedication to protecting user assets and ensuring a secure platform.
