Unprotected initialize functions can front-run by MEV or by an Attacker

Lines of code Vulnerability details Vulnerability Detail It should be avoided that the implementation of proxy contracts can be initialized by third parties. This can be the case if the initialize function is unprotected. Since the implementation contract is not meant to be used directly without ...

Swaps affect LP token mint/burn during liquidity addition/removal

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact The LP token removal/addition forces a recalculation of the bonding curve, and the utility of the curve. The utility curve in proteus looks like the graph below, where the point A represents a certain composition of the pool. If we try to remove add/remo...

No deadline check when swapping tokens in swapGivenInputAmount() and swapGivenOutputAmount

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact Missing deadline checks allow pending transactions to be maliciously executed in the future. Without deadline parameters, as a consequence, users can have their operations executed at unexpected times, when the market conditions are unfavorable. Proof of...

Missing slippage protection in _swap()

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact Without slippage, If the price of the tokens changes significantly during the swap, it could result in a large slippage, causing users to lose a significant amount of funds. An attacker can watch the mempool and then using flash bots execute a sandwich...

Use of slot0 to get sqrtPriceLimitX96 can lead to price manipulation

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact The contracts functions have used UniswapV3.slot0 to get the value of sqrtPriceX96 which it use to perform the swap, however the sqrtPriceX96 gotten from Uniswap.slot0 is the most recent data point and can be manipulated easily via MEV bots & Flashloans...

Some functions in TokenisableRange contracts does not allow user to deadline.

Deposit transaction is prone to being front-run by bad actors.

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact It is possible for an attacker to front-run a user's deposit transaction while transferring fewer amount of assets than the user and minting an equivalent amount of shares as the user could have. Proof of Concept The scenario described below is for the...

SWAP TRADES COULD BE EXECUTED AT A LATER POINT IN TIME BY THE MINERS, IF deadline == 0

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact The Swapper.swapExactInput external function, has the deadline parameter to control the execution time of the swap transaction. If the block.timestamp has elapsed the deadline given the transaction will revert as per the implementation in the...

LACK OF deadline CHECK COULD PROMPT DELAYED EXECUTION OF swap OPERATION

Lines of code Vulnerability details Impact The RewardHandler.sellRewards function is used by governance and trusted sellers to sell reward tokens for collateral tokens. This function ensures that none of the collateral should be decreased after the swap by checking their respective balances befor...

Vulnerable to MEV exploitation due to lack of slippage protection

Lines of code Vulnerability details Proof of Concept Function to decrease and increase liquidity are passing amount0Min and amount1Min as zero. This will result in MEV bots sandwiching transactions to extract value from it. In the worst case it will actually return zero or a very small value in...
