Low Risk Issues - 19 instances over 6 Low risk Issues

L-01. Assert Violation.

The Solidity assert() function is meant to assert invariants. Properly functioning code should never reach a failing assert statement. A reachable assertion can mean one of two things:

1.A bug exists in the contract that allows it to enter an invalid state; 2.The assert statement is used incorrectly, e.g. to validate inputs.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L190

Recommended: Consider whether the condition checked in the assert() is actually an invariant. If not, replace the assert() statement with a require() statement.If the exception is indeed caused by unexpected behaviour of the code, fix the underlying bug(s) that allow the assertion to be violated.

L-02. Missing checks for address(0x0) when assigning values to address state variables.

Zero-address checks are a best practice for input validation of critical address parameters. While the codebase applies this to most cases, there are many places where this is missing in constructors and setters. Impact: Accidental use of zero-addresses may result in exceptions, burn fees/tokens, or force redeployment of contracts.

L-03. Several critical operations do not trigger events, which will make it difficult to review the correct behavior of the contracts once deployed.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/Vault.sol#L182-L193 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L277 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L287 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L295 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L307 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L336 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L360

L-04. Return values of transfer/transferfrom not checked

Not all implementations revert() when there’s a failure in transfer()/transferFrom(). The function signature has a boolean return value and they indicate errors that way instead. By not checking the return value, operations that should have marked as failed, may potentially go through

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L228 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L231 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L365

L-05. Redundant use of safeMath in StakingRewards.sol

From Solidity v0.8 onwards, all arithmetic operations come with implicit overflow and underflow checks. The contract uses pragma version 0.8.15 and yet SafeMath is imported.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L4

L-06. Setters should check the input value.

Add a non-zero address check to the function changeTreasury(), so it can revert if the newTreasury is a zero address.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/VaultFactory.sol#L308

Non-critical Issues - 78 instances over 14 Non-critical Issues

N-01. Public functions not called by the contract should be declared external instead

Contracts are allowed to override their parents functions and change the visibility from external to public. https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/latest/contracts.html#function-overriding

N-02. Constants should be defined rather than using magic numbers

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L299 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L266 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L311 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L177 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/oracles/PegOracle.sol#L68 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/oracles/PegOracle.sol#L70 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/oracles/PegOracle.sol#L73 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/oracles/PegOracle.sol#L78

N-03. Function Naming suggestions

Proper use of _ as a function name prefix A common pattern is to prefix internal and private function names with _.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/SemiFungibleVault.sol#L276 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/SemiFungibleVault.sol#L282

N-04. Open Todos

Code architecture, incentives, and error handling/reporting questions/issues should be resolved before deployment

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L196

N-05. Proper use of get as a function name prefix

Clear function names can increase readability. Follow a standard convertion function names such as using get for getter (view/pure) functions.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/SemiFungibleVault.sol#L137 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/SemiFungibleVault.sol#L237 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/SemiFungibleVault.sol#L251 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L244 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L430 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L143 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L147 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L155 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/oracles/PegOracle.sol#L46

N-06. Redundant cast

The type of the return variable is the same as the type to which the variable is being cast

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/Controller.sol#L317-L319 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/VaultFactory.sol#L178-L239 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/rewards/RewardsFactory.sol#L83-L138

N-07. Inconsistent use of named return variables

There is an inconsistent use of named return variables in the ArbitraryCallsProposal contract.

Some functions return named variables, others return explicit values.

Following function return explicit value: https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/Vault.sol#L260-L267

Following function return return a named variable: https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/main/src/Vault.sol#L152-L174

Recommended: Consider adopting a consistent approach to return values throughout the codebase by removing all named return variables, explicitly declaring them as local variables, and adding the necessary return statements where appropriate. This would improve both the explicitness and readability of the code, and it may also help reduce regressions during future code refactors.

N-08. Use two-phase ownership transfers

Consider adding a two-phase transfer, where the current owner nominates the next owner, and the next owner has to call accept*() to become the new owner. This prevents passing the ownership to an account that is unable to use it.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L277 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L295 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/VaultFactory.sol#L295 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/VaultFactory.sol#L308 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/VaultFactory.sol#L366 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/VaultFactory.sol#L345

N-09. Override function arguments that are unused should have the variable name removed or commented out to avoid compiler warnings

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Vault.sol#L203 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L183

N-10. Constant redefined elsewhere

Consider defining in only one contract so that values cannot become out of sync when only one location is updated. A cheap way to store constants in a single location is to create an internal constant in a library. If the variable is a local cache of another contract's value, consider making the cache variable internal or private, which will require external users to query the contract with the source of truth, so that callers don't get out of sync.

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L12 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L13 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L15 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L16

N-11. Event indexing

Events should use indexed fields

https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/Controller.sol#L49 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L51 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L55 https://github.com/code-423n4/2022-09-y2k-finance/blob/2175c044af98509261e4147edeb48e1036773771/src/rewards/StakingRewards.sol#L56
