Vyper < 0.3.4: External contract call
Vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the ethereum virtual machine. In versions prior to 0.3.4 when a calling an external contract with no return value, the contract address (including side effects) could be evaluated twice. This may result in incorrect outcomes for contracts. This issue has been addressed in v0.3.4.
Vyper v0.3.1 and earlier: Dirty bytes
Vyper is a Pythonic Smart Contract Language for the Ethereum Virtual Machine. In version 0.3.1 and prior, bytestrings can have dirty bytes in them, resulting in the word-for-word comparisons giving incorrect results. Even without dirty nonzero bytes, two bytestrings can compare to equal if one ends with `"\x00"` because there is no comparison of the length. A patch is available and expected to be part of the 0.3.2 release. There are currently no known workarounds.
Vyper v0.3.0 and earlier: Unvalidated .returns_int128()
Vyper is a pythonic Smart Contract Language for the ethereum virtual machine. In affected versions, the return of `.returns_int128()` is not validated to fall within the bounds of `int128`. This issue can result in a misinterpretation of the integer value and lead to incorrect behavior. As of v0.3.0, `.returns_int128()` is validated in simple expressions, but not complex expressions. Users are advised to upgrade. There is no known workaround for this issue.
Vyper 0.3.2 and prior: Potential buffer overrun issue
Vyper is a pythonic Smart Contract Language for the ethereum virtual machine. Versions of vyper prior to 0.3.2 suffer from a potential buffer overrun. Importing a function from a JSON interface which returns `bytes` generates bytecode which does not clamp bytes length, potentially resulting in a buffer overrun. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.
