Metamask: Mismatch in WETH shown in Metamask wallet and shown by code
Non -compliance: Discovering Metamask portfolio failure to show the correct balance of WETH
In a recent blog post, users have begun to notice a discrepancy in the Metamask Wartes portfolio displays about WETH’s tokens balance. While the token contract was properly provided as 0xc778417e063141139FCE010982780140AA0cd5ab when performing, the actual balance shown in the portfolio was significantly different from what it should be.
Code: A look at the internal logic of Metamask
With a more appreciation of the code responsible for the processing of WETH transactions and displaying balances in the portfolio, a special discrepancy appeared. The contract for the Metamask contract is correct, but the balance received in the wallet does not match.
To further study this anomaly, we analyzed the code and identified a potential problem in the way Metamask copes with WETH balance updates. In essence, the problem lies within the way the portfolio interacts with the internal status of the marker contract.
Problem: Inconsistent contract interactions **
The event ‘WETHBALANCEPDATED’, broadcast by the Treaty of Markers upon successful transaction, contains crucial information that is misinterpreted in Metamask. Moreover, the event includes a timemark when the balance is updated, which must be synchronized with the local portfolio condition.
However, due to the disadvantage of the design at the code base, the time mark does not consistently reflected in all customers, including those related to Metamask. As a result, when Metamask updates the internal status of the Taxe contract, it does this outside the sequence with the local clock of the wallet, which leads to an inaccurate presentation of the balance.
The consequences received
This mismatch in WETH’s balance displays has several consequences:
- Incorrect display : The user sees a significantly different balance of WETH from what their portfolio reports.
- Potential security risks : With incorrect balances, users may inadvertently transfer or lose funds due to incorrectly aligned transactions.
SLIGHT OF THE PROBLEM
In order to solve this problem, Metamask must deal with its internal logic and ensure that all customers, including those related to the interface of the intelligent contract of Token Contract, accurately synchronize their local country. This includes updating the code base to properly handle the WETH balance updates and to ensure that Timestamp synchronization is applied to all customer applications.
Conclusion
The mismatch between WETH’s balance shown in Metamask portfolios and its actual chain value emphasizes a critical disadvantage in the internal logic of the portfolio. By understanding the root cause of this problem, we can work to resolve it to provide more accurate and reliable results for users.
