CVE-2025-57247
📋 TL;DR
The BATBToken smart contract contains critical access control vulnerabilities in whitelist management functions. Any user can bypass transfer restrictions and manipulate special address settings, allowing unauthorized privilege escalation and disruption of tokenomics mechanisms. All users interacting with this smart contract are affected.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required
This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.
Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

- Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete compromise of tokenomics: attackers can disable all transfer restrictions, manipulate dividend distributions, and potentially drain funds by adding themselves to whitelists.
Likely Case
Unauthorized users bypass cold time transfer restrictions, enabling premature token transfers and disrupting the intended token distribution schedule.
If Mitigated
Proper access control would restrict these functions to contract owner only, maintaining intended tokenomics and preventing unauthorized modifications.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires only calling the vulnerable functions with appropriate parameters, which can be done via any Ethereum/BSC wallet or interaction tool.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Not applicable - smart contracts are immutable once deployed
Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/RikkaLzw/CVE/blob/main/CVE_BATB-TOKEN.md
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Deploy a new, fixed version of the smart contract with proper access control modifiers. 2. Migrate all token holders to the new contract. 3. Announce the migration to all users. 4. Consider the old contract deprecated and warn users against using it.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Contract monitoring and alerting
allMonitor the vulnerable contract for suspicious calls to setColdWhiteList() and setSpecialAddress() functions
Use blockchain explorers or monitoring tools to track contract interactions
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Warn all users to stop interacting with the vulnerable contract address immediately
- Implement off-chain validation to reject transactions involving the vulnerable contract
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Inspect the contract code at the given address and verify that setColdWhiteList() and setSpecialAddress() functions lack access control modifiers like onlyOwnerCheck Version:
Not applicable - check contract address instead: 0xfbf1388408670c02f0dbbb74251d8ded1d63b7a2Verify Fix Applied:
Check that a new contract has been deployed with proper access control and that the old contract is no longer in active use📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual calls to setColdWhiteList() or setSpecialAddress() from non-owner addresses
- Multiple whitelist modifications in short timeframes
Network Indicators:
- Increased transaction volume to the vulnerable contract
- Unusual patterns in contract function calls
SIEM Query:
Not applicable - use blockchain monitoring tools instead of traditional SIEM
