/ About /

Lightning Cat is a deep learning-based smart contract vulnerability detection solution that uses three models—Optimized-CodeBERT, Optimized-LSTM, and Optimized-CNN—to identify security flaws in Solidity smart contracts. It leverages the CodeBERT pre-trained model for data preprocessing to capture syntax and semantic features of code, achieving an F1-score of 93.53% with the Optimized-CodeBERT model. The system is evaluated on the SolidiFI-benchmark dataset covering four common vulnerability types including reentrancy and integer overflow.

/ How it works /

Lightning Cat extracts vulnerable function code snippets, encodes them using CodeBERT embeddings, and trains three deep learning models (CodeBERT, LSTM, CNN) to classify smart contract vulnerabilities by type.

/ Who it's for /

blockchain developers and security auditors working with Solidity smart contracts
