SolidityScan Remix Plugin

SolidityScan Remix plugin provides scanning capabilities for Solidity smart contracts. It allows you to scan a single .sol file, folder or an entire workspace and gives a security profile for your contract with a security score, vulnerability distribution according to criticality levels & highlights the lines of code containing the vulnerabilities.

Features

  • Scan any File or Folder: Allows you to scan any Solidity file or folder for vulnerabilities.
  • Scan Entire Workspace: Allows you to scan the all the solidity files in the existing workspace for a comprehensive security profile.
  • Vulnerability distribution: Displays all types of vulnerabilities detected in the file distributed according to criticality levels.
  • Detailed results: Shows descriptions & remediations for the detected vulnerabilities along with highlighting the piece of code where they are present.
  • Gas optimizations: Gives you possible ways of optimising your Solidity files for gas.

Please see the following example to get an understanding on how to use the extension.
