    @huangji6693-max

    Hi maintainers! I have prepared and submitted a comprehensive Smart Contract Security Best Practices Guide (docs/SECURITY_BEST_PRACTICES.md) addressing all requirements for this issue in PR: #1058

    Highlights:

    • Threat Model & Security Concerns: Covers actor trust boundaries, authorization, reentrancy, integer precision/rounding conservation, replay protection, oracle staleness/slippage, and Soroban ledger resource/TTL bounds.
    • Vulnerability Catalog (V-01 – V-08): Concrete vulnerable vs. safe Soroban Rust code patterns mapped to security_audit.rs on-chain checks.
    • Checklists & Incident Response Runbook: Pre-development, code review, and pre-deployment checklists plus a 5-phase incident response playbook leveraging emergency_pause.rs, audit_logging.rs, and contract_upgrade.rs.
