Vulnerability details

Description

If the SmartAccount implementation contract is not initialized, it can be destroyed using the following attack scenario:

• Initialize the SmartAccount implementation contract using the init function.

• Execute a transaction that contains a single delegatecall to a contract that executes the selfdestruct opcode on any incoming call, such as:

  contract Destructor {
  fallback() external {
  selfdestruct(payable(0));
  }
  }

The destruction of the implementation contract would result in the freezing of all functionality of the wallets that point to such an implementation. It would also be impossible to change the implementation address, as the Singleton functionality and the entire contract would be destroyed, leaving only the functionality from the Proxy contract accessible.

---

In the deploy script there is the following logic:

const SmartWallet = await ethers.getContractFactory("SmartAccount");
const baseImpl = await SmartWallet.deploy();
await baseImpl.deployed();
console.log("base wallet impl deployed at: ", baseImpl.address);

So, in the deploy script there is no enforce that the SmartAccount contract implementation was initialized.

The same situation in scw-contracts/scripts/wallet-factory.deploy.ts script.

---

Please note, that in case only the possibility of initialization of the SmartAccount implementation will be banned it will be possible to use this attack. This is so because in such a case owner variable will be equal to zero and it will be easy to pass a check inside of checkSignatures function using the fact that for incorrect input parameters ecrecover returns a zero address.

Impact

Complete freezing of all functionality of all wallets (including complete funds freezing).

Recommended Mitigation Steps

Add to the deploy script initialization of the SmartAccount implementation, or add to the SmartAccount contract the following constructor that will prevent implementation contract from the initialization:

// Constructor ensures that this implementation contract can not be initialized
constructor() public {
    owner = address(1);
}
