Solana Security (Sealevel)

Scope

Use this skill for:

  • Solana program auditing (Anchor/native)
  • Solana account model pitfalls
  • Solana-focused fuzzing / tooling / security references

Key Concepts

  • Account model (mutable accounts, ownership, rent/exempt)
  • Program Derived Addresses (PDA) and seeds
  • Cross-Program Invocation (CPI) security
  • Signer vs authority checks
  • Serialization, discriminators, and account layout assumptions

Common Bug Classes

  • Missing signer/authority validation
  • Incorrect PDA derivation or seed collisions
  • CPI to untrusted programs
  • Account confusion (wrong account passed, mismatched owner)
  • Arithmetic / precision issues in token math

Tooling

  • Anchor framework and security patterns
  • Fuzzers / harnesses (e.g., Trident)
  • Program analyzers and disassemblers

Where to Add Links in README

  • Solana SDKs/tools: Development → SDK / Development → Tools
  • Solana audit checklists: Security
  • Solana learning guides: Blockchain Guide

Rules

  • Use English descriptions
  • Avoid duplicates across categories
