BridgeShield: Enhancing Security for Cross-chain Bridge Applications via Heterogeneous Graph Mining
- 构建统一异构图捕捉跨链全流程行为
- 在51个真实攻击事件上达92.58%准确率
- 适合区块链安全研究人员和开发团队
跨链桥在实现区块链互操作性中至关重要,但因设计缺陷和持有巨额价值,成为黑客攻击的主要目标。现有检测方法多聚焦单链行为,难以捕捉跨链语义。为此,我们采用异构图注意力网络,建模多类型实体与关系,提出BridgeShield框架,统一建模源链、离线协调与目标链。通过引入内部元路径注意力学习跨链路径细粒度依赖,以及外部元路径注意力突出判别性跨链模式,实现攻击行为精准识别。在51个真实跨链攻击事件上的实验表明,BridgeShield平均F1得分达92.58%,相比最先进基线提升24.39%。结果验证了该方法在保障跨链桥安全、增强多链生态韧性方面的有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Cross-chain bridges play a vital role in enabling blockchain interoperability. However, due to the inherent design flaws and the enormous value they hold, they have become prime targets for hacker attacks. Existing detection methods show progress yet remain limited, as they mainly address single-chain behaviors and fail to capture cross-chain semantics. To address this gap, we leverage heterogeneous graph attention networks, which are well-suited for modeling multi-typed entities and relations, to capture the complex execution semantics of cross-chain behaviors. We propose BridgeShield, a detection framework that jointly models the source chain, off-chain coordination, and destination chain within a unified heterogeneous graph representation. BridgeShield incorporates intra-meta-path attention to learn fine-grained dependencies within cross-chain paths and inter-meta-path attention to highlight discriminative cross-chain patterns, thereby enabling precise identification of attack behaviors. Extensive experiments on 51 real-world cross-chain attack events demonstrate that BridgeShield achieves an average F1-score of 92.58%, representing a 24.39% improvement over state-of-the-art baselines. These results validate the effectiveness of BridgeShield as a practical solution for securing cross-chain bridges and enhancing the resilience of multi-chain ecosystems.
