Abstract

Smart contracts often deal with transferring considerable amount of assets. Therefore, it is also crucial to pay attention on the security in order to prevent attacks about stealing and tampering the assets. This paper will study security issues in Ethereum about some universal security vulnerabilities in smart contracts.
