Vulnerability details

Impact

Oracle contract has 2 functions - viewPrice & getPrice - to get the price through the Chainlink price feed in DOLA. Both functions check the decimals of the feedDecimals answer by calling feed.decimals() and calculate the price by 36 - feedDecimals - tokenDecimals;. DOLA has 18 decimals, hence it can be seen that the feedDecimals is considered not to be higher than 18. If any tokens with decimals higher than 18 are decided to be added to the system and accepted as collateral tokens, both viewPrice & getPrice functions will revert.

Proof of Concept

For viewPrice;

    function viewPrice(address token, uint collateralFactorBps) external view returns (uint) {
        if(fixedPrices[token] > 0) return fixedPrices[token];
        if(feeds[token].feed != IChainlinkFeed(address(0))) {
            // get price from feed
            uint price = feeds[token].feed.latestAnswer();
            require(price > 0, "Invalid feed price");
            // normalize price
            uint8 feedDecimals = feeds[token].feed.decimals();
            uint8 tokenDecimals = feeds[token].tokenDecimals;
            uint8 decimals = 36 - feedDecimals - tokenDecimals; // @audit-info - The function would revert when feedDecimals GT 18
            uint normalizedPrice = price * (10 ** decimals);
            uint day = block.timestamp / 1 days;
            // get today's low
            uint todaysLow = dailyLows[token][day];
            // get yesterday's low
            uint yesterdaysLow = dailyLows[token][day - 1];
            // calculate new borrowing power based on collateral factor
            uint newBorrowingPower = normalizedPrice * collateralFactorBps / 10000;
            uint twoDayLow = todaysLow > yesterdaysLow && yesterdaysLow > 0 ? yesterdaysLow : todaysLow;
            if(twoDayLow > 0 && newBorrowingPower > twoDayLow) {
                uint dampenedPrice = twoDayLow * 10000 / collateralFactorBps;
                return dampenedPrice < normalizedPrice ? dampenedPrice: normalizedPrice;
            }
            return normalizedPrice;


        }
        revert("Price not found");

Recommended Mitigation Steps

The team can consider this point if any tokens having more than 18 decimals is decided to be added.

Vulnerability details

Impact

Oracle contract has 2 functions - viewPrice & getPrice - to get the price through the Chainlink price feed. However, the received data is not validated/checked for freshness and round completeness. This might cause the price to be stale and it can lead to the wrong return value.

Proof of Concept

    function viewPrice(address token, uint collateralFactorBps) external view returns (uint) {
        if(fixedPrices[token] > 0) return fixedPrices[token];
        if(feeds[token].feed != IChainlinkFeed(address(0))) {
            // get price from feed
            uint price = feeds[token].feed.latestAnswer();
            require(price > 0, "Invalid feed price");
            // normalize price
            uint8 feedDecimals = feeds[token].feed.decimals();
            uint8 tokenDecimals = feeds[token].tokenDecimals;
            uint8 decimals = 36 - feedDecimals - tokenDecimals;
            uint normalizedPrice = price * (10 ** decimals);
            uint day = block.timestamp / 1 days;
            // get today's low
            uint todaysLow = dailyLows[token][day];
            // get yesterday's low
            uint yesterdaysLow = dailyLows[token][day - 1];
            // calculate new borrowing power based on collateral factor
            uint newBorrowingPower = normalizedPrice * collateralFactorBps / 10000;
            uint twoDayLow = todaysLow > yesterdaysLow && yesterdaysLow > 0 ? yesterdaysLow : todaysLow;
            if(twoDayLow > 0 && newBorrowingPower > twoDayLow) {
                uint dampenedPrice = twoDayLow * 10000 / collateralFactorBps;
                return dampenedPrice < normalizedPrice ? dampenedPrice: normalizedPrice;

Recommended Mitigation Steps

The data feed can be validated as follows;

function viewPrice(address token, uint collateralFactorBps) external view returns (uint) {
  if(fixedPrices[token] > 0) return fixedPrices[token];

  (uint80 roundID, int256 answer, , uint256 timestamp, uint80 answeredInRound) = oracle.latestRoundData();
   
      require(answer > 0, "invalid_oracle_answer");
      require(answeredInRound >= roundID, "ChainLink: Stale price");
      require(timestamp > 0, "ChainLink: Round not complete");

         ...
