ERC-20
| This document is better viewed at https://docs.openzeppelin.com/contracts/api/token/erc20 |
This set of interfaces, contracts, and utilities are all related to the ERC-20 Token Standard.
| For an overview of ERC-20 tokens and a walk through on how to create a token contract read our ERC-20 guide. |
There are a few core contracts that implement the behavior specified in the ERC-20 standard:
-
IERC20: the interface all ERC-20 implementations should conform to. -
IERC20Metadata: the extended ERC-20 interface including thename,symbolanddecimalsfunctions. -
ERC20: the implementation of the ERC-20 interface, including thename,symbolanddecimalsoptional extensions to the standard interface.
Additionally there are multiple custom extensions, including:
-
ERC20Permit: gasless approval of tokens (standardized as ERC-2612). -
ERC20Bridgeable: compatibility with crosschain bridges through ERC-7802. -
ERC20Burnable: destruction of own tokens. -
ERC20Capped: enforcement of a cap to the total supply when minting tokens. -
ERC20Crosschain: embeddedBridgeERC20Corebridge, making the token crosschain through the use of ERC-7786 gateways. -
ERC20Pausable: ability to pause token transfers. -
ERC20FlashMint: token level support for flash loans through the minting and burning of ephemeral tokens (standardized as ERC-3156). -
ERC20Votes: support for voting and vote delegation. See the governance guide for a minimal example (with the required overrides when combining ERC20 + ERC20Permit + ERC20Votes). -
ERC20Wrapper: wrapper to create an ERC-20 backed by another ERC-20, with deposit and withdraw methods. Useful in conjunction withERC20Votes. -
ERC20TemporaryApproval: support for approvals lasting for only one transaction, as defined in ERC-7674. -
ERC1363: support for calling the target of a transfer or approval, enabling code execution on the receiver within a single transaction. -
ERC4626: tokenized vault that manages shares (represented as ERC-20) that are backed by assets (another ERC-20).
Finally, there are some utilities to interact with ERC-20 contracts in various ways:
-
SafeERC20: a wrapper around the interface that eliminates the need to handle boolean return values.
Other utilities that support ERC-20 assets can be found in the codebase:
-
ERC-20 tokens can be timelocked (held for a beneficiary until a specified time) or vested (released following a given schedule) using a
VestingWallet.
This core set of contracts is designed to be unopinionated, allowing developers to access the internal functions in ERC-20 (such as _mint) and expose them as external functions in the way they prefer.

Core
IERC20
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/IERC20.sol";
Interface of the ERC-20 standard as defined in the ERC.
transfer(address to, uint256 value) → bool external
Moves a value amount of tokens from the caller’s account to to.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded.
Emits a transfer event.
allowance(address owner, address spender) → uint256 external
Returns the remaining number of tokens that spender will be
allowed to spend on behalf of owner through transferFrom. This is
zero by default.
This value changes when approve or transferFrom are called.
approve(address spender, uint256 value) → bool external
Sets a value amount of tokens as the allowance of spender over the
caller’s tokens.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded.
| Beware that changing an allowance with this method brings the risk that someone may use both the old and the new allowance by unfortunate transaction ordering. One possible solution to mitigate this race condition is to first reduce the spender’s allowance to 0 and set the desired value afterwards: https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/20#issuecomment-263524729 |
Emits an Approval event.
transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 value) → bool external
Moves a value amount of tokens from from to to using the
allowance mechanism. value is then deducted from the caller’s
allowance.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded.
Emits a transfer event.
Transfer(address indexed from, address indexed to, uint256 value) event
Emitted when value tokens are moved from one account (from) to
another (to).
Note that value may be zero.
Approval(address indexed owner, address indexed spender, uint256 value) event
Emitted when the allowance of a spender for an owner is set by
a call to approve. value is the new allowance.
IERC20Metadata
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/IERC20Metadata.sol";
Interface for the optional metadata functions from the ERC-20 standard.
ERC20
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/ERC20.sol";
Implementation of the IERC20 interface.
This implementation is agnostic to the way tokens are created. This means
that a supply mechanism has to be added in a derived contract using _mint.
| For a detailed writeup see our guide How to implement supply mechanisms. |
The default value of decimals is 18. To change this, you should override
this function so it returns a different value.
We have followed general OpenZeppelin Contracts guidelines: functions revert
instead returning false on failure. This behavior is nonetheless
conventional and does not conflict with the expectations of ERC-20
applications.
constructor(string name_, string symbol_) internal
Both values are immutable: they can only be set once during construction.
decimals() → uint8 public
Returns the number of decimals used to get its user representation.
For example, if decimals equals 2, a balance of 505 tokens should
be displayed to a user as 5.05 (505 / 10 ** 2).
Tokens usually opt for a value of 18, imitating the relationship between Ether and Wei. This is the default value returned by this function, unless it’s overridden.
This information is only used for display purposes: it in
no way affects any of the arithmetic of the contract, including
IERC20.balanceOf and IERC20.transfer.
|
transfer(address to, uint256 value) → bool public
See IERC20.transfer.
Requirements:
-
tocannot be the zero address. -
the caller must have a balance of at least
value.
allowance(address owner, address spender) → uint256 public
Returns the remaining number of tokens that spender will be
allowed to spend on behalf of owner through transferFrom. This is
zero by default.
This value changes when approve or transferFrom are called.
approve(address spender, uint256 value) → bool public
See IERC20.approve.
If value is the maximum uint256, the allowance is not updated on
transferFrom. This is semantically equivalent to an infinite approval.
|
Requirements:
-
spendercannot be the zero address.
transferFrom(address from, address to, uint256 value) → bool public
See IERC20.transferFrom.
Skips emitting an Approval event indicating an allowance update. This is not
required by the ERC. See _approve.
Does not update the allowance if the current allowance
is the maximum uint256.
|
Requirements:
-
fromandtocannot be the zero address. -
frommust have a balance of at leastvalue. -
the caller must have allowance for
from's tokens of at leastvalue.
_transfer(address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
Moves a value amount of tokens from from to to.
This internal function is equivalent to transfer, and can be used to
e.g. implement automatic token fees, slashing mechanisms, etc.
Emits a transfer event.
This function is not virtual, _update should be overridden instead.
|
_update(address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
Transfers a value amount of tokens from from to to, or alternatively mints (or burns) if from
(or to) is the zero address. All customizations to transfers, mints, and burns should be done by overriding
this function.
Emits a transfer event.
_mint(address account, uint256 value) internal
Creates a value amount of tokens and assigns them to account, by transferring it from address(0).
Relies on the _update mechanism
Emits a transfer event with from set to the zero address.
This function is not virtual, _update should be overridden instead.
|
_burn(address account, uint256 value) internal
Destroys a value amount of tokens from account, lowering the total supply.
Relies on the _update mechanism.
Emits a transfer event with to set to the zero address.
This function is not virtual, _update should be overridden instead
|
_approve(address owner, address spender, uint256 value) internal
Sets value as the allowance of spender over the `owner’s tokens.
This internal function is equivalent to approve, and can be used to
e.g. set automatic allowances for certain subsystems, etc.
Emits an Approval event.
Requirements:
-
ownercannot be the zero address. -
spendercannot be the zero address.
Overrides to this logic should be done to the variant with an additional bool emitEvent argument.
_approve(address owner, address spender, uint256 value, bool emitEvent) internal
By default (when calling _approve) the flag is set to true. On the other hand, approval changes made by
_spendAllowance during the transferFrom operation sets the flag to false. This saves gas by not emitting any
Approval event during transferFrom operations.
Anyone who wishes to continue emitting Approval events on the transferFrom operation can force the flag to
true using the following override:
function _approve(address owner, address spender, uint256 value, bool) internal virtual override {
super._approve(owner, spender, value, true);
}
Requirements are the same as _approve.
_spendAllowance(address owner, address spender, uint256 value) internal
Updates owner’s allowance for `spender based on spent value.
Does not update the allowance value in case of infinite allowance. Revert if not enough allowance is available.
Does not emit an Approval event.
Extensions
IERC20Permit
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/IERC20Permit.sol";
Interface of the ERC-20 Permit extension allowing approvals to be made via signatures, as defined in ERC-2612.
Adds the permit method, which can be used to change an account’s ERC-20 allowance (see IERC20.allowance) by
presenting a message signed by the account. By not relying on IERC20.approve, the token holder account doesn’t
need to send a transaction, and thus is not required to hold Ether at all.
Security Considerations
There are two important considerations concerning the use of permit. The first is that a valid permit signature
expresses an allowance, and it should not be assumed to convey additional meaning. In particular, it should not be
considered as an intention to spend the allowance in any specific way. The second is that because permits have
built-in replay protection and can be submitted by anyone, they can be frontrun. A protocol that uses permits should
take this into consideration and allow a permit call to fail. Combining these two aspects, a pattern that may be
generally recommended is:
function doThingWithPermit(..., uint256 value, uint256 deadline, uint8 v, bytes32 r, bytes32 s) public {
try token.permit(msg.sender, address(this), value, deadline, v, r, s) {} catch {}
doThing(..., value);
}
function doThing(..., uint256 value) public {
token.safeTransferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), value);
...
}
Observe that: 1) msg.sender is used as the owner, leaving no ambiguity as to the signer intent, and 2) the use of
try/catch allows the permit to fail and makes the code tolerant to frontrunning. (See also
SafeERC20.safeTransferFrom).
Additionally, note that smart contract wallets (such as Argent or Safe) are not able to produce permit signatures, so contracts should have entry points that don’t rely on permit.
permit(address owner, address spender, uint256 value, uint256 deadline, uint8 v, bytes32 r, bytes32 s) external
Sets value as the allowance of spender over owner's tokens,
given owner's signed approval.
The same issues IERC20.approve has related to transaction
ordering also applies here.
|
Emits an Approval event.
Requirements:
-
spendercannot be the zero address. -
deadlinemust be a timestamp in the future. -
v,randsmust be a validsecp256k1signature fromownerover the EIP712-formatted function arguments. -
the signature must use
owner's current nonce (seenonces).
For more information on the signature format, see the relevant EIP section.
| See Security Considerations above. |
ERC20Permit
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Permit.sol";
Implementation of the ERC-20 Permit extension allowing approvals to be made via signatures, as defined in ERC-2612.
Adds the permit method, which can be used to change an account’s ERC-20 allowance (see IERC20.allowance) by
presenting a message signed by the account. By not relying on , the token holder account doesn’t
need to send a transaction, and thus is not required to hold Ether at all.IERC20.approve
constructor(string name) internal
Initializes the EIP712 domain separator using the name parameter, and setting version to "1".
It’s a good idea to use the same name that is defined as the ERC-20 token name.
permit(address owner, address spender, uint256 value, uint256 deadline, uint8 v, bytes32 r, bytes32 s) public
Sets value as the allowance of spender over owner's tokens,
given owner's signed approval.
The same issues IERC20.approve has related to transaction
ordering also applies here.
|
Emits an Approval event.
Requirements:
-
spendercannot be the zero address. -
deadlinemust be a timestamp in the future. -
v,randsmust be a validsecp256k1signature fromownerover the EIP712-formatted function arguments. -
the signature must use
owner's current nonce (seenonces).
For more information on the signature format, see the relevant EIP section.
| See Security Considerations above. |
nonces(address owner) → uint256 public
Returns the current nonce for owner. This value must be
included whenever a signature is generated for permit.
Every successful call to permit increases owner's nonce by one. This
prevents a signature from being used multiple times.
ERC20Bridgeable
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/draft-ERC20Bridgeable.sol";
ERC20 extension that implements the standard token interface according to ERC-7802.
supportsInterface(bytes4 interfaceId) → bool public
Returns true if this contract implements the interface defined by
interfaceId. See the corresponding
ERC section
to learn more about how these ids are created.
This function call must use less than 30 000 gas.
crosschainMint(address to, uint256 value) public
See IERC7802.CrosschainMint. Emits a IERC7802.CrosschainMint event.
crosschainBurn(address from, uint256 value) public
See IERC7802.CrosschainBurn. Emits a IERC7802.CrosschainBurn event.
_checkTokenBridge(address caller) internal
Checks if the caller is a trusted token bridge. MUST revert otherwise.
Developers should implement this function using an access control mechanism that allows
customizing the list of allowed senders. Consider using AccessControl or AccessManaged.
ERC20Burnable
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Burnable.sol";
Extension of ERC20 that allows token holders to destroy both their own
tokens and those that they have an allowance for, in a way that can be
recognized off-chain (via event analysis).
burnFrom(address account, uint256 value) public
Destroys a value amount of tokens from account, deducting from
the caller’s allowance.
See ERC20._burn and ERC20.allowance.
Requirements:
-
the caller must have allowance for
accounts's tokens of at leastvalue.
ERC20Capped
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Capped.sol";
Extension of ERC20 that adds a cap to the supply of tokens.
constructor(uint256 cap_) internal
Sets the value of the cap. This value is immutable, it can only be
set once during construction.
_update(address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
Transfers a value amount of tokens from from to to, or alternatively mints (or burns) if from
(or to) is the zero address. All customizations to transfers, mints, and burns should be done by overriding
this function.
Emits a transfer event.
ERC20Crosschain
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Crosschain.sol";
Extension of ERC20 that makes it natively cross-chain using the ERC-7786 based BridgeERC20Core.
This extension makes the token compatible with counterparts on other chains, which can be:
* ERC20Crosschain instances,
* ERC20 instances that are bridged using BridgeERC20,
* ERC20Bridgeable instances that are bridged using BridgeERC7802.
It is mostly equivalent to inheriting from both ERC20Bridgeable and BridgeERC7802, and configuring them such
that:
* token (on the BridgeERC7802 side) is address(this),
* _checkTokenBridge (on the ERC20Bridgeable side) is implemented such that it only accepts self-calls.
ERC20Pausable
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Pausable.sol";
ERC-20 token with pausable token transfers, minting and burning.
Useful for scenarios such as preventing trades until the end of an evaluation period, or having an emergency switch for freezing all token transfers in the event of a large bug.
This contract does not include public pause and unpause functions. In
addition to inheriting this contract, you must define both functions, invoking the
Pausable._pause and Pausable._unpause internal functions, with appropriate
access control, e.g. using AccessControl or Ownable. Not doing so will
make the contract pause mechanism of the contract unreachable, and thus unusable.
|
_update(address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
See ERC20._update.
Requirements:
-
the contract must not be paused.
ERC20Votes
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Votes.sol";
Extension of ERC-20 to support Compound-like voting and delegation. This version is more generic than Compound’s, and supports token supply up to 2208 - 1, while COMP is limited to 296 - 1.
| This contract does not provide interface compatibility with Compound’s COMP token. |
This extension keeps a history (checkpoints) of each account’s vote power. Vote power can be delegated either
by calling the Votes.delegate function directly, or by providing a signature to be used with Votes.delegateBySig. Voting
power can be queried through the public accessors Votes.getVotes and Votes.getPastVotes.
By default, token balance does not account for voting power. This makes transfers cheaper. The downside is that it requires users to delegate to themselves in order to activate checkpoints and have their voting power tracked.
_maxSupply() → uint256 internal
Maximum token supply. Defaults to type(uint208).max (2208 - 1).
This maximum is enforced in _update. It limits the total supply of the token, which is otherwise a uint256,
so that checkpoints can be stored in the Trace208 structure used by Votes. Increasing this value will not
remove the underlying limitation, and will cause _update to fail because of a math overflow in
Votes._transferVotingUnits. An override could be used to further restrict the total supply (to a lower value) if
additional logic requires it. When resolving override conflicts on this function, the minimum should be
returned.
_update(address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
Move voting power when tokens are transferred.
Emits a IVotes.DelegateVotesChanged event.
_getVotingUnits(address account) → uint256 internal
Returns the voting units of an account.
Overriding this function may compromise the internal vote accounting.
ERC20Votes assumes tokens map to voting units 1:1 and this is not easy to change.
|
ERC20Wrapper
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20Wrapper.sol";
Extension of the ERC-20 token contract to support token wrapping.
Users can deposit and withdraw "underlying tokens" and receive a matching number of "wrapped tokens". This is useful
in conjunction with other modules. For example, combining this wrapping mechanism with ERC20Votes will allow the
wrapping of an existing "basic" ERC-20 into a governance token.
Any mechanism in which the underlying token changes the balanceOf of an account without an explicit transfer
may desynchronize this contract’s supply and its underlying balance. Please exercise caution when wrapping tokens that
may undercollateralize the wrapper (i.e. wrapper’s total supply is higher than its underlying balance). See _recover
for recovering value accrued to the wrapper.
|
underlying() → contract IERC20 public
Returns the address of the underlying ERC-20 token that is being wrapped.
depositFor(address account, uint256 value) → bool public
Allow a user to deposit underlying tokens and mint the corresponding number of wrapped tokens.
withdrawTo(address account, uint256 value) → bool public
Allow a user to burn a number of wrapped tokens and withdraw the corresponding number of underlying tokens.
ERC20FlashMint
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC20FlashMint.sol";
Implementation of the ERC-3156 Flash loans extension, as defined in ERC-3156.
Adds the flashLoan method, which provides flash loan support at the token
level. By default there is no fee, but this can be changed by overriding flashFee.
When this extension is used along with the ERC20Capped or ERC20Votes extensions,
maxFlashLoan will not correctly reflect the maximum that can be flash minted. We recommend
overriding maxFlashLoan so that it correctly reflects the supply cap.
|
maxFlashLoan(address token) → uint256 public
Returns the maximum amount of tokens available for loan.
flashFee(address token, uint256 value) → uint256 public
Returns the fee applied when doing flash loans. This function calls
the _flashFee function which returns the fee applied when doing flash
loans.
_flashFee(address token, uint256 value) → uint256 internal
Returns the fee applied when doing flash loans. By default this implementation has 0 fees. This function can be overloaded to make the flash loan mechanism deflationary.
_flashFeeReceiver() → address internal
Returns the receiver address of the flash fee. By default this implementation returns the address(0) which means the fee amount will be burnt. This function can be overloaded to change the fee receiver.
flashLoan(contract IERC3156FlashBorrower receiver, address token, uint256 value, bytes data) → bool public
Performs a flash loan. New tokens are minted and sent to the
receiver, who is required to implement the IERC3156FlashBorrower
interface. By the end of the flash loan, the receiver is expected to own
value + fee tokens and have them approved back to the token contract itself so
they can be burned.
ERC3156ExceededMaxLoan(uint256 maxLoan) error
The requested loan exceeds the max loan value for token.
ERC3156InvalidReceiver(address receiver) error
The receiver of a flashloan is not a valid IERC3156FlashBorrower.onFlashLoan implementer.
ERC20TemporaryApproval
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/draft-ERC20TemporaryApproval.sol";
Extension of ERC20 that adds support for temporary allowances following ERC-7674.
| This is a draft contract. The corresponding ERC is still subject to changes. |
Available since v5.1.
allowance(address owner, address spender) → uint256 public
allowance override that includes the temporary allowance when looking up the current allowance. If
adding up the persistent and the temporary allowances result in an overflow, type(uint256).max is returned.
_temporaryAllowance(address owner, address spender) → uint256 internal
Internal getter for the current temporary allowance that spender has over owner tokens.
temporaryApprove(address spender, uint256 value) → bool public
Alternative to approve that sets a value amount of tokens as the temporary allowance of spender over
the caller’s tokens.
Returns a boolean value indicating whether the operation succeeded.
Requirements:
- spender cannot be the zero address.
Does NOT emit an Approval event.
_temporaryApprove(address owner, address spender, uint256 value) internal
Sets value as the temporary allowance of spender over the `owner’s tokens.
This internal function is equivalent to temporaryApprove, and can be used to e.g. set automatic allowances
for certain subsystems, etc.
Requirements:
- owner cannot be the zero address.
- spender cannot be the zero address.
Does NOT emit an Approval event.
_spendAllowance(address owner, address spender, uint256 value) internal
_spendAllowance override that consumes the temporary allowance (if any) before eventually falling back
to consuming the persistent allowance.
NOTE: This function skips calling super._spendAllowance if the temporary allowance
is enough to cover the spending.
ERC1363
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC1363.sol";
Extension of ERC20 tokens that adds support for code execution after transfers and approvals
on recipient contracts. Calls after transfers are enabled through the ERC1363.transferAndCall and
ERC1363.transferFromAndCall methods while calls after approvals can be made with ERC1363.approveAndCall
Available since v5.1.
supportsInterface(bytes4 interfaceId) → bool public
Returns true if this contract implements the interface defined by
interfaceId. See the corresponding
ERC section
to learn more about how these ids are created.
This function call must use less than 30 000 gas.
transferAndCall(address to, uint256 value) → bool public
Moves a value amount of tokens from the caller’s account to to
and then calls IERC1363Receiver.onTransferReceived on to. Returns a flag that indicates
if the call succeeded.
Requirements:
-
The target has code (i.e. is a contract).
-
The target
tomust implement theIERC1363Receiverinterface. -
The target must return the
IERC1363Receiver.onTransferReceivedselector to accept the transfer. -
The internal
transfermust succeed (returnedtrue).
transferAndCall(address to, uint256 value, bytes data) → bool public
Variant of transferAndCall that accepts an additional data parameter with
no specified format.
transferFromAndCall(address from, address to, uint256 value) → bool public
Moves a value amount of tokens from from to to using the allowance mechanism
and then calls IERC1363Receiver.onTransferReceived on to. Returns a flag that indicates
if the call succeeded.
Requirements:
-
The target has code (i.e. is a contract).
-
The target
tomust implement theIERC1363Receiverinterface. -
The target must return the
IERC1363Receiver.onTransferReceivedselector to accept the transfer. -
The internal
transferFrommust succeed (returnedtrue).
transferFromAndCall(address from, address to, uint256 value, bytes data) → bool public
Variant of transferFromAndCall that accepts an additional data parameter with
no specified format.
approveAndCall(address spender, uint256 value) → bool public
Sets a value amount of tokens as the allowance of spender over the
caller’s tokens and then calls IERC1363Spender.onApprovalReceived on spender.
Returns a flag that indicates if the call succeeded.
Requirements:
-
The target has code (i.e. is a contract).
-
The target
spendermust implement theIERC1363Spenderinterface. -
The target must return the
IERC1363Spender.onApprovalReceivedselector to accept the approval. -
The internal
approvemust succeed (returnedtrue).
approveAndCall(address spender, uint256 value, bytes data) → bool public

no specified format.
ERC1363TransferFailed(address receiver, uint256 value) error
Indicates a failure within the transfer part of a transferAndCall operation.
ERC1363TransferFromFailed(address sender, address receiver, uint256 value) error
Indicates a failure within the transferFrom part of a transferFromAndCall operation.
ERC1363ApproveFailed(address spender, uint256 value) error
Indicates a failure within the approve part of a approveAndCall operation.
ERC4626
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/extensions/ERC4626.sol";
Implementation of the ERC-4626 "Tokenized Vault Standard" as defined in ERC-4626.
This extension allows the minting and burning of "shares" (represented using the ERC-20 inheritance) in exchange for
underlying "assets" through standardized deposit, mint, redeem and burn workflows. This contract extends
the ERC-20 standard. Any additional extensions included along it would affect the "shares" token represented by this
contract and not the "assets" token which is an independent contract.
|
In empty (or nearly empty) ERC-4626 vaults, deposits are at high risk of being stolen through frontrunning with a "donation" to the vault that inflates the price of a share. This is variously known as a donation or inflation attack and is essentially a problem of slippage. Vault deployers can protect against this attack by making an initial deposit of a non-trivial amount of the asset, such that price manipulation becomes infeasible. Withdrawals may similarly be affected by slippage. Users can protect against this attack as well as unexpected slippage in general by verifying the amount received is as expected, using a wrapper that performs these checks such as ERC4626Router. Since v4.9, this implementation introduces configurable virtual assets and shares to help developers mitigate that risk.
The The drawback of this approach is that the virtual shares do capture (a very small) part of the value being accrued
to the vault. Also, if the vault experiences losses, the users try to exit the vault, the virtual shares and assets
will cause the first user to exit to experience reduced losses in detriment to the last users that will experience
bigger losses. Developers willing to revert back to the pre-v4.9 behavior just need to override the

When overriding this contract, some elements must be considered:
|
constructor(contract IERC20 asset_) internal
Set the underlying asset contract. This must be an ERC20-compatible contract (ERC-20 or ERC-777).
decimals() → uint8 public
Decimals are computed by adding the decimal offset on top of the underlying asset’s decimals. This "original" value is cached during construction of the vault contract. If this read operation fails (e.g., the asset has not been created yet), a default of 18 is used to represent the underlying asset’s decimals.
asset() → address public
Returns the address of the underlying token used for the Vault for accounting, depositing, and withdrawing.
-
MUST be an ERC-20 token contract.
-
MUST NOT revert.
totalAssets() → uint256 public
Returns the total amount of the underlying asset that is “managed” by Vault.
-
SHOULD include any compounding that occurs from yield.
-
MUST be inclusive of any fees that are charged against assets in the Vault.
-
MUST NOT revert.
convertToShares(uint256 assets) → uint256 public
Returns the amount of shares that the Vault would exchange for the amount of assets provided, in an ideal scenario where all the conditions are met.
-
MUST NOT be inclusive of any fees that are charged against assets in the Vault.
-
MUST NOT show any variations depending on the caller.
-
MUST NOT reflect slippage or other on-chain conditions, when performing the actual exchange.
-
MUST NOT revert.
| This calculation MAY NOT reflect the “per-user” price-per-share, and instead should reflect the “average-user’s” price-per-share, meaning what the average user should expect to see when exchanging to and from. |
convertToAssets(uint256 shares) → uint256 public

Utilities
SafeERC20
import "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC20/utils/SafeERC20.sol";
Wrappers around ERC-20 operations that throw on failure (when the token
contract returns false). Tokens that return no value (and instead revert or
throw on failure) are also supported, non-reverting calls are assumed to be
successful.
To use this library you can add a using SafeERC20 for IERC20; statement to your contract,
which allows you to call the safe operations as token.safeTransfer(…), etc.
safeTransfer(contract IERC20 token, address to, uint256 value) internal
Transfer value amount of token from the calling contract to to. If token returns no value,
non-reverting calls are assumed to be successful.
safeTransferFrom(contract IERC20 token, address from, address to, uint256 value) internal
Transfer value amount of token from from to to, spending the approval given by from to the
calling contract. If token returns no value, non-reverting calls are assumed to be successful.
trySafeTransfer(contract IERC20 token, address to, uint256 value) → bool internal
Variant of safeTransfer that returns a bool instead of reverting if the operation is not successful.
trySafeTransferFrom(contract IERC20 token, address from, address to, uint256 value) → bool internal
Variant of safeTransferFrom that returns a bool instead of reverting if the operation is not successful.
safeIncreaseAllowance(contract IERC20 token, address spender, uint256 value) internal
Increase the calling contract’s allowance toward spender by value. If token returns no value,
non-reverting calls are assumed to be successful.
If the token implements ERC-7674 (ERC-20 with temporary allowance), and if the "client"
smart contract uses ERC-7674 to set temporary allowances, then the "client" smart contract should avoid using
this function. Performing a safeIncreaseAllowance or safeDecreaseAllowance operation on a token contract
that has a non-zero temporary allowance (for that particular owner-spender) will result in unexpected behavior.
|
safeDecreaseAllowance(contract IERC20 token, address spender, uint256 requestedDecrease) internal
Decrease the calling contract’s allowance toward spender by requestedDecrease. If token returns no
value, non-reverting calls are assumed to be successful.
If the token implements ERC-7674 (ERC-20 with temporary allowance), and if the "client"
smart contract uses ERC-7674 to set temporary allowances, then the "client" smart contract should avoid using
this function. Performing a safeIncreaseAllowance or safeDecreaseAllowance operation on a token contract
that has a non-zero temporary allowance (for that particular owner-spender) will result in unexpected behavior.
|
forceApprove(contract IERC20 token, address spender, uint256 value) internal
Set the calling contract’s allowance toward spender to value. If token returns no value,
non-reverting calls are assumed to be successful. Meant to be used with tokens that require the approval
to be set to zero before setting it to a non-zero value, such as USDT.
| If the token implements ERC-7674, this function will not modify any temporary allowance. This function only sets the "standard" allowance. Any temporary allowance will remain active, in addition to the value being set here. |
transferAndCallRelaxed(contract IERC1363 token, address to, uint256 value, bytes data) internal
Performs an ERC1363 transferAndCall, with a fallback to the simple ERC20 transfer if the target has no
code. This can be used to implement an ERC721-like safe transfer that relies on ERC1363 checks when
targeting contracts.
Reverts if the returned value is other than true.
transferFromAndCallRelaxed(contract IERC1363 token, address from, address to, uint256 value, bytes data) internal
Performs an ERC1363 transferFromAndCall, with a fallback to the simple ERC20 transferFrom if the target
has no code. This can be used to implement an ERC721-like safe transfer that relies on ERC1363 checks when
targeting contracts.
Reverts if the returned value is other than true.
approveAndCallRelaxed(contract IERC1363 token, address to, uint256 value, bytes data) internal
Performs an ERC1363 approveAndCall, with a fallback to the simple ERC20 approve if the target has no
code. This can be used to implement an ERC721-like safe transfer that rely on ERC1363 checks when
targeting contracts.
When the recipient address (to) has no code (i.e. is an EOA), this function behaves as forceApprove.
Oppositely, when the recipient address (to) has code, this function only attempts to call ERC1363.approveAndCall
once without retrying, and relies on the returned value to be true.
|
Reverts if the returned value is other than true.
