Project: Cross Chain Money Market XRPL EVM

Industry: Web3

Service: Smart Contract Audit

Strobe Protocol is redefining DeFi for XRP holders, bridging the XRPL ecosystem with EVM-compatible environments using secure cross-chain communication via Axelar. The platform enables users to lend, borrow, and participate in vault-based yield strategies while preserving full composability across chains.

Key Audit Focus Areas

The audit covered mission-critical components of the protocol including:

Cross-Chain Messaging Integrity

Auditing Axelar-based GMP flows to ensure state consistency, prevent spoofing, and avoid fund desyncs.

Lending & Borrowing Logic

Reviewing all withdrawal, borrow, repay, and liquidation flows for security and accounting accuracy.

Oracle & Interest Rate System

Validating price feed integrity and interest rate curve enforcement to ensure proper risk management.

Edge-Case Defense

Testing DoS risks, state reentrancy, and gas-scaling impacts on core pool functions.

Key Findings and Resolutions

All vulnerabilities were remediated with appropriate mitigations

Notable findings and fixes include:

  • Cross-chain state handling safeguard to prevent ledger inconsistencies on failed token transfers
  • Oracle validation and staleness checks to avoid price manipulation or liquidation errors
  • Post-liquidation reserve accounting bug patched
  • ERC-20 decimals check added to avoid DoS on reserves

This collaboration reinforces the importance of security in DeFi. With Softstack’s audit complete, Strobe Protocol is now ready to enter production with improved resilience and cross-chain safety.
