<p>The Reentrancy attack, probably the most famous Ethereum vulnerability, surprised everyone when discovered for the first time. It was first unveiled during a multimillion dollar heist which led to a hard fork of Ethereum. Reentrancy occurs when external contract calls are allowed to make new calls to the calling contract before the initial execution is complete. For a function, this means that the contract state may change in the middle of its execution as a result of a call to an untrusted contract or the use of a low level function with an external address.</p>
<p> Reentrancy is a vulnerability which allows an execution of a function before the previous execution of it is complete. Renatrancy is a concept in many programming languages which refers to a code that can be executed safely before the previous execution is complete. Basically this function can be executed parallelly without causing harm to the overall state ahcine of the program.
