Abstract:

In this paper, we present a comprehensive approach for efficient vulnerability detection in Ethereum smart contracts using a multimodal deep learning (DL) approach. Our proposed approach combines two levels of features in smart contracts, including source code, bytecode, and utilizes BERT and Bi-LSTM models to extract and analyze the features. The last layer of our multimodal approach is a fully connected layer that predicts the vulnerability in Ethereum smart contracts. We address the limitations of existing deep learning-based vulnerability detection methods for smart contracts, which often rely on a single type of feature or model, resulting in limited accuracy and effectiveness. The experimental results show that our proposed approach achieves superior results compared to existing state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating the effectiveness and potential of multimodal DL approaches in smart contract vulnerability detection.

The students extend their gratitude to Thầy Phạm Văn Hậu, Head of the Information Security Department, Thầy Phan Thế Duy, Deputy Head of the Information Security Lab, and other faculty members for their dedicated guidance and feedback during the research and publication process of this international scientific paper.

The IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM) is one of the longest-standing and largest telecommunications conferences, with a history of over 60 years, mostly held in the United States. It is one of the flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society, focusing on promoting innovation in nearly all aspects of telecommunications. GLOBECOM is in the Scopus-indexed conference list, ranked as "B" according to the CORE conference ranking. Each year, approximately 3,000 research papers from experts worldwide are submitted to the conference, with around 35% of them being accepted for presentation. These carefully reviewed and critically evaluated ideas and proposals are chosen for the conference program, including technical papers, tutorials, workshops, and industry sessions. These presentation sessions, keynote speeches, and report topics are specially designed to promote advances in technology, systems, and infrastructure that are continuing to change the world and provide users with access to a range of high-speed, smooth, and cost-effective global communications services with the advent of 6G technologies.

The IEEE GLOBECOM 2023 conference will be held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, from December 4th to December 8th, 2023, with the theme "Intelligent Communications for Shared Prosperity." This leading conference of the IEEE Communications Society will feature a high-quality technical program comprising 13 deep-dive symposia and a variety of tutorials and workshops. The conference will also include an engaging industry program, with keynote speeches and roundtable discussions by renowned leaders in research, industry, and government, as well as business and industry forums and product exhibitions by providers.
