counterscarp-engine 5.0.4

Smart contract security auditing platform with Pro features

Counterscarp™ Security Engine

Production-ready smart contract security platform — 21 integrated analyzers, configurable rules, and professional audit reports.

One command. Zero false positives. Client-ready deliverables.

Installation

pip install counterscarp-engine

For optional extras:

pip install "counterscarp-engine[web]"          # Web interface
pip install "counterscarp-engine[pdf]"          # PDF report export
pip install "counterscarp-engine[ai,advanced]"  # RAG + LLM analysis
pip install "counterscarp-engine[web,pdf,ai,advanced]"  # Full install

PDF Report Generation (Pro/Enterprise)

PDF export requires the optional pdf extra:

pip install "counterscarp-engine[pdf]"

This installs xhtml2pdf for converting HTML audit reports to branded, print-ready PDFs with custom logos.

See QUICKSTART.md for Docker setup, optional external tools (Slither, Aderyn, Medusa), and full installation details.

Quick Scan

# Scan a contracts directory and generate a report
counterscarp-engine --target ./contracts --report

# Use a pre-built execution profile
counterscarp-engine --target ./contracts --config counterscarp-pr.toml      # fast PR check
counterscarp-engine --target ./contracts --config counterscarp-audit.toml   # full audit
counterscarp-engine --target ./contracts --config counterscarp-bounty.toml  # bug bounty

counterscarp --gui  # Launch local web interface

Docker (report persistence)

docker run --rm \
  -v /path/to/contracts:/scan \
  -v /path/to/reports:/output \
  counterscarp-engine:5.0.3 \
  --target /scan --output-dir /output --report

Mount a host directory to /output and pass --output-dir /output so reports survive --rm container teardown. See QUICKSTART.md for full Docker setup.

Interface Modes

CLI (Headless)

counterscarp --target ./contracts

Headless mode designed for CI/CD pipelines and automation. Supports all scan profiles (PR, Audit, Bounty, Solana). Outputs JSON, Markdown, and SARIF for direct pipeline integration. No GUI dependencies required.

Desktop GUI

counterscarp --gui

Launches a local Tkinter desktop interface. Provides 12 analyzer toggles for granular scan configuration, a file browser for contract selection, and real-time result streaming. Fully offline — no network connection required.

Cloud App

app.counterscarp.io — multi-user web application with account system. Browser-based interface supporting scan upload, interactive results, and report downloads (HTML/PDF/SARIF/Markdown). Includes attack graph visualization and Stripe-integrated billing.

Solana/Anchor Security Analysis

Coverage (v5.0.3)

35 Rust/Anchor security patterns across 7 categories:

Category	Rules	Examples
Account Validation	8	Missing signer/owner checks, unvalidated PDA seeds, missing discriminator checks
CPI Security	4	Arbitrary CPI, missing CPI authority, unverified program accounts
Arithmetic & Logic	5	Unchecked arithmetic, integer overflow, unsafe casting, precision loss
State Management	6	Uninitialized accounts, reinitialization, missing rent exemption, stale data
Access Control	4	Missing access control, hardcoded authority, weak authority checks
Token Security	4	Missing token account validation, unchecked balances, unvalidated token program
General Validation	4	Unconstrained system program, missing clock validation, duplicate mutable accounts

Additional Capabilities

• cargo-audit integration for Cargo.toml dependency CVEs
• Anchor IDL validation for security constraint verification

Approach

Static regex-based pattern matching against Rust source files. Scans all .rs files, excluding the /target directory.

Known Limitations

• Single-file analysis — no cross-contract taint tracking across Rust modules
• Regex-based — no data-flow or symbolic execution analysis
• Anchor-focused — raw Solana SDK (non-Anchor) coverage is lighter
• No CPI tracing — cross-program invocation paths are not traced across program boundaries

Roadmap (v5.x)

• Cross-file CPI tracing
• Expanded raw Solana SDK patterns
• Integration with Anchor's built-in verification tools

Security & Privacy (Data Sovereignty)

Counterscarp Engine is built for environments where source-code confidentiality is non-negotiable — bank compliance teams, Web3 audit firms, and air-gapped infrastructure.

• Zero code exfiltration — No source code, bytecode, or contract artifacts ever leave the host machine during a scan. All analysis is performed locally.
• Local-first AI inference — The AI Copilot defaults to local inference via Ollama when configured (counterscarp.toml → [ai] provider = "ollama"). If OpenAI is selected, only a one-paragraph natural-language summary of each finding is sent to the OpenAI API — never raw source code.
• Bundled threat intelligence — Vulnerability databases and protocol signatures ship with the package and are queried locally. Network access only occurs if you explicitly run counterscarp --update-signatures. For fully air-gapped environments, use counterscarp --update-from-file <path> to import pre-downloaded signature packs.
• No telemetry — The CLI contains zero usage telemetry, analytics callbacks, tracking pixels, or phone-home behavior. Period.
• API security hardening — The web API enforces rate limiting (10 req/min on license validation, 5 req/min on deactivation, 30 req/min on webhooks), Pydantic input validation on all request fields, mandatory Stripe webhook signature verification, admin endpoint authentication, CORS restricted to known origins, and a dedicated counterscarp.security logger for all auth and validation events.
