在编写智能合约的时候需要注意的一个主要的安全特性:防止溢出和下溢。为了防止这些情况,OpenZeppelin建立了一个叫做SafeMath的库(library),默认情况下可以防止这些问题。
什么是溢出(overflow)
假设我们有一个uint8, 只能存储8 bit数据。这意味着我们能存储的最大数字就是二进制11111111(或者说十进制的2^8-1 =255).
来看看下面的代码。最后 number 将会是什么值?
在这个例子中,我们导致了溢出---虽然我们加了1,但是number出乎意料地等于0了。
下溢(underflow)也类似,如果你从一个等于0的uint8减去1, 它将变成255 (因为uint是无符号的,其不能等于负数)。
分析 SafeMath源码
1.加法,仅限内部调用,返回 uint256
require(c>=a && c>=b); //验证结果: 两个正数相加,和一定大于每个加数
2.减法,仅限内部调用,返回 uint256
require(b <= a) 因为返回值需要是 正数,所以此处判断 b必须小于等于a
3.乘法,仅限内部调用,返回 uint256
uint256 c = a * b; 容易溢出,比如 a=2,b=2^255 乘积 2^256 刚好溢出。结果取后面的256位(全为0),导致 c=0。
所以使用 (a == 0 || c / a == b),验证结果的一致性。
4.除法,仅限内部调用,返回 uint256
require(b > 0), 确保被除数不能为0
require(a == b * c + a % b);防止溢出,验证结果的一致性
总结:
不要直接使用简单的 "+-*/" ,尽量使用 library SafeMath 中的函数,避免整数溢出的隐患。
