Exact factors
  • Ownership NOT renounced — owner is a contract (governance/executor, not an EOA)
  • Mintable supply — no cap found, dilution unbounded
  • Proxy contract (upgradeable — admin can replace logic)
  • Complex proxy pattern (BEACON)
  • Top-10 concentration > 30% (70.9% total → 38.9% effective; 17.6% in EOAs, 53.3% in contracts — moderate)
  • Liquidity not locked, but no owner/deployer address holds LP — market-depth risk, not rug risk
  • LP top1 unlocked holder = 100.0% (independent LP — depth risk, pool = 98% of DEX liquidity)
  • LP top3 unlocked holders = 100.0% (independent LP — depth risk, pool = 98% of DEX liquidity)
  • 1 High finding(s) from audit
  • 1 Medium finding(s) from audit
  • 1 Low finding(s) from audit

Each factor is an on-chain fact recorded at the time of this analysis. The score is computed from them by a deterministic function, so the same contract returns the same score for anyone who runs the audit. How scores are computed

How holder types affect the score

Share held by contracts — treasury, vesting, bridge or staking — is discounted against share held by wallets when the score is computed: a contract cannot decide to sell the way an anonymous holder can, though it can still be drained or voted to sell. Effective concentration is the figure the risk score is actually calculated from.

Incomplete Audit Scope - Missing Implementation Code

The provided source code only includes the BridgeToken proxy contract, which delegates its logic to an implementation contract via a Beacon. The source code for the actual implementation contract (0x5537…d904) was not provided for review. This prevents a comprehensive security assessment of the core business logic, state management, and potential vulnerabilities such as reentrancy, access control flaws, or economic exploits within the token's functionality.H-01

Issue

The provided source code only includes the BridgeToken proxy contract, which delegates its logic to an implementation contract via a Beacon. The source code for the actual implementation contract () was not provided for review. This prevents a comprehensive security assessment of the core business logic, state management, and potential vulnerabilities such as reentrancy, access control flaws, or economic exploits within the token's functionality.

Fix

Provide the full source code for the implementation contract and the Beacon contract to enable a complete security audit of the entire system.

Centralized Upgrade Control via Beacon

The BridgeToken contract is a BeaconProxy, meaning its logic is entirely controlled by the implementation address set in an external Beacon contract. The administrative control over this Beacon contract determines who can upgrade the BridgeToken's logic. If the Beacon contract is controlled by a single entity or an inadequately secured address, it introduces a significant centralization risk, allowing unilateral changes to the token's behavior without community oversight.M-01

Issue

The BridgeToken contract is a BeaconProxy, meaning its logic is entirely controlled by the implementation address set in an external Beacon contract. The administrative control over this Beacon contract determines who can upgrade the BridgeToken's logic. If the Beacon contract is controlled by a single entity or an inadequately secured address, it introduces a significant centralization risk, allowing unilateral changes to the token's behavior without community oversight.

Fix

Implement robust access control mechanisms for the Beacon contract, such as a multi-signature wallet with a high threshold or a time-locked governance contract, to manage implementation upgrades. This decentralizes control and introduces a delay for critical changes.

Reliance on External Beacon Contract Security

The security and integrity of the BridgeToken system are directly dependent on the security of the external Beacon contract. Any vulnerability or compromise in the Beacon contract could directly impact all BeaconProxy instances, including BridgeToken, by allowing unauthorized or malicious upgrades to the implementation.L-01

Issue

The security and integrity of the BridgeToken system are directly dependent on the security of the external Beacon contract. Any vulnerability or compromise in the Beacon contract could directly impact all BeaconProxy instances, including BridgeToken, by allowing unauthorized or malicious upgrades to the implementation.

Fix

Conduct a thorough security audit of the Beacon contract itself, focusing on its access control, upgrade logic, and potential attack vectors. Ensure the Beacon contract is immutable or upgradeable only through secure, transparent, and decentralized governance processes.

Info

Standard OpenZeppelin BeaconProxy Usage

The BridgeToken contract correctly utilizes the BeaconProxy pattern from OpenZeppelin contracts. This pattern is a well-established and audited solution for upgradeable contracts, allowing multiple proxy instances to share the same implementation logic via a central Beacon contract. This approach saves gas and simplifies management for a set of identical upgradeable contracts.I-01

Issue

The BridgeToken contract correctly utilizes the BeaconProxy pattern from OpenZeppelin contracts. This pattern is a well-established and audited solution for upgradeable contracts, allowing multiple proxy instances to share the same implementation logic via a central Beacon contract. This approach saves gas and simplifies management for a set of identical upgradeable contracts.

Fix

Continue to follow best practices for upgradeable contracts, including careful management of storage slots in the implementation to prevent storage collisions and thorough testing of all upgrade paths.

Analysis

AI Copilotas of audit · Sep 4
Executive SummaryWhat the contract is and what the review found

This audit covers the BridgeToken proxy contract, which utilizes the OpenZeppelin BeaconProxy pattern. The core logic resides in an unprovided implementation contract (0x5537857664b0f9efe38c9f320f75fef23234d904), making this a partial audit. The primary risks identified relate to the centralized control over upgrades via the associated Beacon contract, whose governance and security mechanisms are unknown.

Technical6/10Medium risk

The BridgeToken contract is a minimal proxy leveraging OpenZeppelin's BeaconProxy (7.1 Architecture). This pattern delegates all calls to an implementation contract specified by a Beacon contract. The proxy contract itself is simple and correctly imports standard OpenZeppelin libraries, suggesting good code quality (7.2 Code Security). However, the actual business logic and state management reside in the implementation contract, which was not provided for review. Therefore, a comprehensive technical security assessment (including 7.3 Access Control) cannot be completed.

Governance3/10High risk

The economic model (7.4 Economic) and governance mechanisms (7.5 Governance) of the BridgeToken system are primarily determined by the implementation contract and the Beacon contract. Without access to the source code or details of these components, a full assessment is not possible. The centralized control over the Beacon contract, which dictates the implementation, represents a significant governance risk as a single entity can unilaterally change the token's logic.

Upgrades1/10High risk

The BridgeToken contract uses the BeaconProxy pattern, meaning its implementation can be upgraded by changing the address stored in the associated Beacon contract (7.7 Upgrades). This provides flexibility but introduces a high upgrade risk if the Beacon's administrative control is not robustly secured, for example, by a multi-signature wallet or a time-locked governance mechanism. The current audit cannot assess the security of the Beacon contract or its upgrade permissions, leaving a critical gap in the overall upgrade safety analysis.

Final RecommendationWhat to do about this score

To ensure the overall security of the BridgeToken system, it is crucial to conduct a full audit of the implementation contract and the Beacon contract.

Special attention should be paid to the access control mechanisms governing the Beacon's ability to update the implementation address. Implement robust security measures, such as multi-signature wallets or time-locks, for any administrative roles with upgrade privileges to mitigate centralized control risks.
