Report ID: #31417
Report type: Smart Contract
Report severity: Insight
Target: https://github.com/alchemix-finance/alchemix-v2-dao/blob/main/src/RewardsDistributor.sol
Impacts:
- Contract fails to deliver promised returns, but doesn't lose value
When user tries to reinvest their claimed reward with _compound = true
in RewardsDistributor.claim(uint256 _tokenId, bool _compound)
, it will always revert when users _tokenId
is expired.
if (_compound) {
(uint256 wethAmount, uint256[] memory normalizedWeights) = amountToCompound(alcxAmount);
require(
msg.value >= wethAmount || WETH.balanceOf(msg.sender) >= wethAmount,
"insufficient balance to compound"
);
// Wrap eth if necessary
if (msg.value > 0) {
WETH.deposit{ value: wethAmount }();
} else IERC20(address(WETH)).safeTransferFrom(msg.sender, address(this), wethAmount);
_depositIntoBalancerPool(wethAmount, alcxAmount, normalizedWeights);
IVotingEscrow(votingEscrow).depositFor(_tokenId, IERC20(lockedToken).balanceOf(address(this))); //@audit
function depositFor(uint256 _tokenId, uint256 _value) external nonreentrant {
LockedBalance memory _locked = locked[_tokenId];
require(_value > 0); // dev: need non-zero value
require(_locked.amount > 0, "No existing lock found");
require(_locked.end > block.timestamp, "Cannot add to expired lock. Withdraw"); //@audit
As we can see, while performing depositFor()
from claim()
, its checking for require(_locked.end > block.timestamp, "Cannot add to expired lock. Withdraw");
. Which will revert user's claim tx with compounding when their veALCX token is expired.
Users compounding claim tx will always revert when their veALCX NFT token is expired. User should not allowed to call claim function with compounding once their veALCX token is expired.
Consider sending the claimed veALCX rewards to the owner of the veALCX if the veALCX's lock has already expired.
When executing code block of compounding, it should also check along with compounding check that whether veALCX NFT token is not expired as shown below.
function claim(uint256 _tokenId, bool _compound) external payable nonReentrant returns (uint256) {
// ...SNIP...
+ uint256 lockEnd = IVotingEscrow(votingEscrow).lockEnd(_tokenId);
+ if (_compound && lockEnd > block.timestamp) {
- if (_compound) {
// ...SNIP...
IVotingEscrow(votingEscrow).depositFor(_tokenId, IERC20(lockedToken).balanceOf(address(this)));
// ...SNIP...
} else {
// ...SNIP...
}
}

Note: For PoC to work, we need to move time beyond 60 days which is hardcoded in RewardsDistributor
contract as staleThreshold = 60 days
at https://github.com/alchemix-finance/alchemix-v2-dao/blob/f1007439ad3a32e412468c4c42f62f676822dc1f/src/RewardsDistributor.sol#L118. Since time has moved beyond 60 days but oracle(priceFeed) has not updated during this time interval, its reverting with Price stale
message. To mimic oracle update, we have updated updatedAt
field returns from latestRoundData()
to avoid Price stale
revert using foundry cheatcode - load
and store
.
Steps to Run using Foundry:
- Paste following foundry code in
src/test/Minter.t.sol
- Run using
FOUNDRY_PROFILE=default forge test --fork-url $FORK_URL --fork-block-number 17133822 --match-contract MinterTest --match-test testCompoundRewardFailureOnVeALCXExpired -vv
// Compound claiming should revert if users veALCX is expired
function testCompoundRewardFailureOnVeALCXExpired() public {
initializeVotingEscrow();
hevm.startPrank(admin);
// After no epoch has passed, amount claimable should be 0
assertEq(distributor.claimable(tokenId), 0, "amount claimable should be 0");
// Fast forward to new epoch
hevm.warp(newEpoch());
hevm.roll(block.number + 1);
voter.distribute();
// Accounts must provide proportional amount of WETH to deposit into the Balancer pool
weth.approve(address(distributor), type(uint256).max);
// Fast forward to MAXTIME to expire tokenId
uint expiry = veALCX.lockEnd(tokenId);
hevm.warp(expiry + 1 seconds);
hevm.roll(block.number + 1);
// Update priceFeed's `updatedAt` field
address aggregator = 0x64a119DCf78E7E3FcED89c429f6F47Bf0cd80250;
uint transmissionSlot = 44; //https://evm.storage/eth/19889196/0x64a119dcf78e7e3fced89c429f6f47bf0cd80250/s_transmissions#map
uint latestRoundId = 2608;
bytes32 loc = keccak256(abi.encode(latestRoundId, transmissionSlot));
bytes32 data = hevm.load(aggregator, loc);
data = data & 0x0000000000000000ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff;
data = data | bytes32(block.timestamp << 192);
hevm.store(aggregator, loc, data);
// Claim with compunding should revert
hevm.expectRevert("Cannot add to expired lock. Withdraw");
distributor.claim(tokenId, true);
hevm.stopPrank();
