EMP [Empiricus] Token

Unable to find manual contract audit (e.g. Certik, PeckShield, Solidity...)

Empiricus.addLiquidity(uint256,uint256) (#1062-1075) sends eth to arbitrary user
Dangerous calls:
- uniswapV2Router.addLiquidityETH{value: ethAmount}(address(this),tokenAmount,0,0,owner(),block.timestamp) (#1067-1074)
Ensure that an arbitrary user cannot withdraw unauthorized funds.

Combination 1: Reentrancy vulnerabilities + Functions that send Ether to arbitraty destination. Usual for scams. May be justified by some complex mechanics (e.g. rebase, reflections). DYOR & manual audit are advised.

Empiricus.addLiquidity(uint256,uint256) (#1062-1075) ignores return value by uniswapV2Router.addLiquidityETH{value: ethAmount}(address(this),tokenAmount,0,0,owner(),block.timestamp) (#1067-1074)
Ensure that all the return values of the function calls are used.

- Ownable.owner() (#430-432) (function)
Rename the local variables that shadow another component.

Empiricus.setcharityWallet(address).newWallet (#1167) lacks a zero-check on :
- charityWallet = newWallet (#1168)
Check that the address is not zero.

Ownable.unlock() (#477-482) uses timestamp for comparisons
Dangerous comparisons:
- require(bool,string)(now > _lockTime,Contract is locked until 7 days) (#479)
Avoid relying on block.timestamp.

Address._functionCallWithValue(address,bytes,uint256,string) (#375-396) uses assembly

Do not use evm assembly.

SafeMath.mod(uint256,uint256,string) (#243-246) is never used and should be removed
Remove unused functions.

Additional information: link

Empiricus._previouscharityFee (#730) is set pre-construction with a non-constant function or state variable:
- _charityFee
Remove any initialization of state variables via non-constant state variables or function calls. If variables must be set upon contract deployment, locate initialization in the constructor instead.

Low level call in Address._functionCallWithValue(address,bytes,uint256,string) (#375-396):
- (success,returndata) = target.call{value: weiValue}(data) (#379)
Avoid low-level calls. Check the call success. If the call is meant for a contract, check for code existence

Variable Empiricus._charityFee (#728) is not in mixedCase
Follow the Solidity naming convention.

Variable Empiricus._getRValues(uint256,uint256,uint256,uint256).rTransferAmount (#918) is too similar to Empiricus._transferToExcluded(address,address,uint256).tTransferAmount (#1126)
Prevent variables from having similar names.

Empiricus.numTokensSellToAddToLiquidity (#738) should be constant
Add the constant attributes to state variables that never change.

Additional information: link

setSwapAndLiquifyEnabled(bool) should be declared external:
- Empiricus.setSwapAndLiquifyEnabled(bool) (#1196-1199)
Use the external attribute for functions never called from the contract.
