Due to the open-source nature of the blockchain ecosystem, it is common for
new blockchains to fork or partially reuse the code of classic blockchains. For
example, the popular Dogecoin, Litecoin, Binance BSC, and Polygon are all
variants of Bitcoin/Ethereum. These "forked" blockchains thus could encounter
similar vulnerabilities that are propagated from Bitcoin/Ethereum during
forking or subsequently commit fetching. In this paper, we conduct a systematic
study of detecting and investigating the propagated vulnerabilities in forked
blockchain projects. To facilitate …
