Analysis

What this file is

A public Foundry test from the DeFiHackLabs dataset for the PancakeBunny incident dated 2021-05-19. It reproduces the historical attack against archived chain state. The incident is years old and the affected systems were patched or shut down; we show the file verbatim under our code disclosure policy.

How to read it

The test sets up a fork, labels the relevant addresses, then walks through the steps the attacker used. Treat it as a historical case study for defenders, not as something to run against live contracts.

Fixes and defensive tests

  • Review privileged entry points
  • Limit what external coin can be pulled without intent checks
  • Pause or migrate when a class of bug is public
