'First' Ethereum Decompiler Launches With JP Morgan Quorum Integration
The ethereum virtual machine (EVM) now has what appears to be its first ever decompiler designed to revert smart contracts into source code.
Announced onstage today by the founder of cybersecurity startup Comae Technologies at the DefCon hacker conference in Las Vegas, the open-source EVM decompiler was designed to make it easier to identify bugs in ethereum smart contracts.
Coming at a time when a string of ethereum hacks have exposed the difficulty of writing secure smart contract code, the decompiler, called Porosity, promises to let developers revert difficult to understand EVM bytecode back to its original state.
Porosity developer and Comae founder, Matt Suiche, told CoinDesk:
"The initial problem I was trying to solve by writing a decompiler is to be able to have the actual source code, without having access to the actual source code by reverse engineering."
Also announced today, Porosity is now integrated with JP Morgan's open-source Quorum blockchain created for enterprise-grade solutions, and it will now be available on the bank's Github page.Tested with the help of some of JP Morgan's own engineers, Porosity and Quorum are expected to be packaged together to help run real-time smart contract security checks. The bundle, integrated directly into the Go-language ethereum implementation geth "out of the box," incorporates security and patching processes for private networks with formal governance models.JP Morgan blockchain lead Amber Baldet described to CoinDesk what she believes is the significance of the technology, stating:
"Porosity is the first decompiler that generates human-readable Solidity syntax smart contracts from Ethereum Virtual Machine bytecode"
