Security Considerations

When building on Uniswap v4, security should be a primary consideration. This section covers emergency response resources and security best practices specific to v4 implementations.

Emergency Response​

SEAL 911 Emergency Hotline​

If you encounter a security incident (exploit, vulnerability, or other urgent security matter) while working with Uniswap v4, the SEAL 911 Emergency Hotline provides immediate access to security experts.

Emergency Contact: https://t.me/seal_911_bot

SEAL 911 is a community-operated Telegram bot that connects you directly with vetted security responders who can provide immediate assistance during security incidents.

How It Works​

  • Send a message through the bot during a security emergency
  • Automatic alert routing to a vetted group of white hat security professionals
  • Immediate response from trusted security experts in the space

Additional Resources​

note

SEAL 911 is a third-party service operated by the Security Alliance. Exercise appropriate judgment when sharing sensitive information during emergency situations.

v4-Specific Security Considerations​

Hook Security​

When developing custom hooks for v4, ensure proper validation and access controls. Malicious or poorly implemented hooks can compromise pool security.

Flash Accounting​

v4's flash accounting system requires careful implementation to prevent exploitation. Always ensure proper settlement of deltas.

Pool Manager Interactions​

Direct interactions with the PoolManager require thorough understanding of the locking mechanism and callback patterns.

Bug Bounty Program​

For non-emergency security issues, report vulnerabilities through Uniswap's official bug bounty program.
