proof · a Foundry test that fails on this code and passes once it is fixed3.lowSigned FOK/IOC time-in-force is enforced only on the taker leg; the same order in the maker slot is partially filled or stays livecontracts/src/Exchange.sol:53
if (taker.timeInForce == 2) require(filled[h] == taker.size, "FOK incomplete");
Merged from audit_flow, audit_permissions and audit_economics. timeInForce is part of the signed EIP-712 Order, but the maker/taker role is not signed: the operator chooses the slot. _check validates both legs identically, but the post-match loop (lines 50-56) reads only matches[i].taker. So a fill-or-kill (2) order in the maker slot can be partially filled, and an immediate-or-cancel (3) maker order is not cancelled and can be filled again in a later transaction.
The post-only (4) rule is correctly taker-only. Severity is low because only the trusted operator chooses the slots, and the signer's price limit still holds.
Fix: apply the FOK (filled == size) and IOC (cancel) rules to matches[i].maker as well, and keep the post-only revert for the taker only.
4.lowFill notional amount*price/1e6 floors without a minimum: small fills move tokens for zero collateral and zero fee, and in the mint path the taker can pay above its signed limitcontracts/src/Exchange.sol:65
uint256 av = m.amount * a.price / 1e6; uint256 bv; uint8 kind;
Merged from audit_math and audit_economics. av = m.amount * a.price / 1e6 rounds down, and nothing requires av > 0 or amount to sit on a grid that makes the product exact.
Same-token path: a seller delivers outcome tokens and receives floor(amount*price/1e6), which can be 0, and both fees floor to 0.
Mint path: bv = amount - av = ceil(amount*(1e6 - a.price)/1e6), which can exceed amount*b.price/1e6, so the taker pays more than its signed price. Only the trusted operator picks amount, and the loss is at most 1 unit (1e-6 tUSDC) per fill without compounding, hence low.
Fix: require(m.amount % 100 == 0) (prices are multiples of 10_000, so the notional is then exact), or require av > 0 and round toward the party whose limit would otherwise be violated.
Same-token: a holds YES; a signs sell YES @10000 (fee 100 bps), b signs buy YES @10000; operator matches amount=99.
Expected: seller receives about 0.99 units, or a revert.
Actual: USDC balances of a, b and feeRecipient are unchanged, and b receives 99 YES.
Mint: a buys YES @600000, b buys NO @400000, amount=1.
Expected: b pays at most floor(0.4)=0.
Actual: a pays 0, b pays 1.
Reproduced in scratch tests testZeroNotionalFill and testMintTakerPaysAboveLimit (both pass, confirming the behaviour).
5.lowNo resolution path if the reporter never reports: the guardian cannot start one, and one-sided positions stay locked forevercontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:30
require(msg.sender == reporter && reports[id].finalizeAt == 0, "Reporter or duplicate");
Merged from audit_permissions (info) and audit_economics (medium). Every resolution starts with report(), which only the immutable reporter can call. overrideReport requires an existing report (finalizeAt != 0), and there is no timeout fallback.
If the reporter key is lost or the service stops, finalize reverts 'Not final' and redeemPositions reverts 'Unresolved' forever. isTradable is false after end, so holders of only one side, the normal result of exchange trading, cannot exit; only complete-set holders can mergePositions. The reporter is a designed trusted role, so this is a missing-liveness-fallback issue rather than a bypass, rated low.
Fix that keeps the design: let the guardian file the first report (or an invalid one) once block.timestamp >= end + grace and reports[id].finalizeAt == 0, or allow a permissionless invalid resolution after a long timeout.
State: early market M (end 200000); a split 10e6 (mask 1).
No report is filed.
At t=300000: isTradable(M) == false; guardian overrideReport(M, 0, 0, true) reverts 'Outside dispute window'; finalize(M) reverts 'Not final'; a redeemPositions(M,[1]) reverts 'Unresolved'.
Expected: some actor can resolve or invalidate after a grace period.
Reproduced in scratch test testNoReportNoResolution.
6.infoTrust assumption: each guardian override restarts the dispute clock, so the guardian can postpone finalization indefinitelycontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41
reports[id] = Report(distance, dataHash, uint64(block.timestamp + disputeSeconds), invalid, false);
Merged from audit_flow, audit_permissions and audit_economics. _report always stores finalizeAt = now + disputeSeconds, and overrideReport only requires now < finalizeAt. Repeated overrides, even with identical values, push finalization out without bound. Meanwhile trading is closed and redeemPositions reverts 'Unresolved'.
This is a power of the designed guardian role and is documented as a trust assumption. If a bound is wanted: keep the original finalizeAt on override, extend it at most once, or cap it at max(original, m.end + disputeSeconds).
disputeSeconds=10; at t=200000 the reporter reports M (finalizeAt 200010).
The guardian calls overrideReport(M, 900, 0, false) every 9 s, 50 times; finalizeAt becomes 200460 and finalize(M) still reverts 'Not final' at t=200459.
Reproduced in scratch test testGuardianExtendsIndefinitely.
7.infouint64 cast of block.timestamp + disputeSeconds truncates; a delay of 2**64 or more wraps finalizeAt (zero dispute window or never finalizable)contracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41
reports[id] = Report(distance, dataHash, uint64(block.timestamp + disputeSeconds), invalid, false);
disputeSeconds is a uint256 bounded only by >= 1 (line 18). The stored finalizeAt is uint64(block.timestamp + disputeSeconds), which truncates silently, while the event emits the untruncated value. A delay of 2**64 makes finalizeAt equal the report time, so finalize succeeds in the same block.
A delay of 2**64 - ts gives 0, which leaves the report re-fileable and makes finalize unreachable. This is reachable only through an absurd deployment argument; the audit_math specialist reports the live Sepolia oracle uses 300, which I did not re-check. So it is hardening, not low.
Fix: bound delay in the constructor (e.g. <= 365 days) or use SafeCast.toUint64.
Deploy DistanceOracle(ctf, reporter, guardian, 2**64); at t=100000 createMarket(M, 99999, 200000, 1000, true, []); report(M, 1001, 0, false).
Expected finalizeAt = 100000 + 2**64.
Actual: reports(M).finalizeAt == 100000, and finalize(M) succeeds in the same block with payout(M,0)=1.
Reproduced in scratch test testFinalizeAtWrap.
8.infoPer-mask floor division in redeemPositions strands dust in locked[market] after invalid or multi-outcome resolutioncontracts/src/ConditionalTokens.sol:84
_burn(msg.sender, id, amount); value += amount * num / c.denominator;
Merged from audit_math and audit_economics. Each mask's value amount*num/denominator is floored separately, so a complete set split across masks redeems for less than par when denominator > 1. Up to (masks-1) units stay in locked[market] with no tokens left to claim them. mergePositions, which has no resolved guard, still returns par for the same tokens.
Collateral is never over-paid, so this is conservation-safe and dust-sized.
Fix: sum the numerators over all masks before one division, i.e. value = sum(amount_j*num_j)/denominator.
createMarket(id, 99999, 200000, 0, false, [500,1000]) (3 outcomes); a splitPosition(id, 1, 10e6), holding masks 1 and 6.
At t=200001 report(id, 0, 0, true); at t=200011 finalize -> payouts [1,1,1], denominator 3. a redeemPositions(id, [1,6]).
Expected claimable 10_000_000.
Actual 9_999_999, and locked[id] == 1 permanently.
Reproduced in scratch test testRedeemDustStranded.
9.infoTrust assumption: the unsigned maker/taker role lets the operator decide which crossing order gets the price improvementcontracts/src/Exchange.sol:73
bv = m.amount - av;
The execution price is always the maker leg's price (av = amount*a.price/1e6), and in the mint/merge path the taker gets the whole surplus (bv = amount - av). The operator assigns the maker and taker slots freely, so it decides who pays their full limit and who gets the spread. This is within the stated operator-matching design and is documented as a trust boundary, not a bypass.
Fix if wanted: tie role to a signed field, or split the surplus deterministically.
a signs buy YES @600000, b signs buy NO @600000 (fee 100 bps each).
Match{maker=a, taker=b, amount=1e6}: a pays 600000+6000, b pays 400000+4000.
Swapping the slots reverses who pays 600000.

The review is complete. The findings file holds four substantiated findings, three with Foundry proofs that fail on the current code and pass under a minimal fix.
What was reviewed. All five contracts under
contracts/srcand the test suite, through the Execution Trace, Periphery and First Principles passes. The project builds and its 13 tests pass. No repository file was changed. The only new files are the findings JSON and three proof tests under the scratch directory.Findings, ranked:
- High. Guardian cannot correct a false early report (
contracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:40). The override path reuses the reporter's "Too early" gate, so before the window ends the guardian can only submit another YES with a higher distance. Lowering the distance to NO or marking the report invalid reverts. With a dispute period shorter than the remaining window, a wrong early YES finalizes with no recourse and every NO holder loses their stake. Proof: two tests, both revert "Too early" today. - Medium. Exchange mint path is dead on every fresh market (
contracts/src/Exchange.sol:64). The exchange resolves market and mask from a position registry that is only written by a prior split or refine. Right after market creation the registry is empty, so the first complementary match reverts "Market closed". The repository tests hide this by splitting in setUp. Proof: one test. - Low. FOK and IOC policies only enforced on the taker slot (
contracts/src/Exchange.sol:53). The same signed order placed as maker is partially filled or stays live after its fill. Proof: two tests. - Info, trust assumption. Each guardian override restarts the dispute clock (
contracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41), so finalization can be deferred without bound while trading and redemption stay blocked.
Verification. Each proof was run against the pristine code and failed for the stated reason. I then applied minimal fixes in a throwaway copy outside the repository. All proofs passed there and the original 13 tests still passed.
Coverage notes. Collateral conservation across split, merge, refine, complete-set merge and redeem checked out, as did the complement-mask check, EIP-712 hashing and the reentrancy surface. Rounding dust in redemption was left to the math pass and is not reported. The proof tests use the inline hevm cheatcode interface the repository's own tests use, since forge-std is not vendored and I could not add it to configuration.

overrideReport reuses _report, which unconditionally stores finalizeAt = block.timestamp + disputeSeconds. overrideReport only requires block.timestamp < reports[id].finalizeAt and !finalized, so a guardian who calls it again shortly before each deadline pushes finalizeAt forward by disputeSeconds every time, with no cap on the number of overrides and no absolute deadline relative to m.end.
While a report is pending, isTradable is false (line 46) and ConditionalTokens stays unresolved, so holders cannot trade or redeem; only mergePositions of complete sets returns collateral. This is a power of a designed, immutable trusted role and is reported as a trust assumption rather than a defect.
If a bound is wanted without changing the role, the override could keep the original finalizeAt (or extend it at most once), or cap finalizeAt at max(original, m.end + disputeSeconds).

The review is complete.
.imd-findings.jsonholds four substantiated findings, two with Foundry proofs. No contract or configuration file was changed; the only additions are the scratch tests undercontracts/test/scratch/.Scope covered. All five contracts in
contracts/srcand the existing suite, with the Math Precision, Boundary and Numerical Gap passes applied first to every division, cast, comparison and external call site. The existing suite passes (13 tests, including the fuzz and invariant runs). I also read the live Sepolia oracle, which reports a 300-second dispute window.Findings, by severity:
- Medium, DistanceOracle line 40. The guardian cannot dispute an early binary report in any way that matters. The shared "Too early" guard forces an override before the window end to also be an early YES report, so marking it invalid or lowering the distance reverts. With a 300-second dispute window and 24-hour markets, the window lapses long before noon and anyone can finalize the wrong outcome. Proof test fails on this code with "Too early" and passes when overrides bypass that guard.
- Low, DistanceOracle line 41. The dispute deadline is stored through an unchecked uint64 cast. A delay of 264 wraps the deadline to the report timestamp, so finalize succeeds in the same block. A delay of 264 minus the timestamp wraps it to zero, leaving the market tradable and never finalizable. Deployment-argument only. Proof test included.
- Low, Exchange line 65. Fill notional floors to zero for fills under 100 units. A 99-unit fill at price 0.01 moves 99 position units to the buyer for zero collateral and zero fee. In the mint path a 1-unit fill makes the taker pay 1 unit for a position it priced at 0.4, above its signed limit. Operator-chosen amount, at most one unit per fill.
- Info, ConditionalTokens line 84. Per-mask floor division on invalid or multi-outcome resolutions strands dust in the market's locked balance permanently, while merging the same complete set after resolution returns par.
Verified clean. Collateral conservation across split, merge, refine, the adapter conversion and the exchange mint and merge paths; the locked accounting cannot underflow; bucket and threshold boundaries are consistent with the strict-exceed rule; fee and notional overflow is unreachable with the 990_000 price cap.
Notes outside the assigned area, not filed. Time-in-force policies are only enforced on the taker side, so an operator can rest an IOC or FOK order as maker. Merge functions lack the resolved guard that split has, which is harmless in value terms and is folded into the info finding.
Limitation. The scratch tests need forge-std, which this repository does not vendor. I ran them with a remapping to a copy cloned outside the repo, so the repository's own
npm testwould not compile them while they remain in place.ran onclaude · claude-fable-5-1 · 30 turns · 9m 39s · 450 in · 41.3K out · 960.5K cachedsubmissione19727a45ba26fdca9384fc28b9abcfef69259dc13a0af282602e3e8b00a1fd5device06d00e98fbdd1ee97e8c3710d97defe7b3457202a4e63b2d4b7223613745b23dstarted from249ed720737450d88bb1d7da239ff061094700e9bundlenoneGuardian cannot invalidate or correct an early binary report before the market window ends; the dispute window lapses and the wrong outcome finalizescontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:40

The review is complete. The findings file is in place at the repository root with seven entries, and no tracked file was changed.
Scope covered. All five contracts in
contracts/srcand the existing test suite, under the Economic Security, Invariant and Flow Gap guides first, then the remaining passes as my own. I traced collateral conservation across split, merge, refine, mergeCompleteSet, redeem and the NegRiskAdapter conversion, and the core accounting holds: payouts never exceedlocked, the adapter's identity is exact, and the exchange math is bounded to sub-unit dust. The real defects are in the oracle's dispute flow and in operator-side policy enforcement.Findings written (every one reproduced in
contracts/test/scratch/Leads.t.sol, which passes 8 of 8 against the current code):- Medium, guardian cannot correct a wrong early report. The override reuses the early-report timing rule, so before the window ends the guardian can only replace an "exceeded" report with another "exceeded" value. A wrong early report finalizes to YES after the dispute period, and NO holders get nothing. The only workaround is thousands of chained overrides. Proof test attached; it fails today with "Too early" and I confirmed it passes under the proposed fix.
- Medium, no fallback if the reporter never reports. Override requires a pending report and there is no post-end grace path, so a lost reporter key locks every one-sided position forever.
- Low, FOK and IOC only enforced on the taker leg. A fill-or-kill order placed as maker is partially filled. Proof attached, fails today.
- Low, zero-notional fills. Fill amounts below 1e6 divided by price truncate to zero collateral and zero fee. Operator-only and dust-sized. Proof attached, fails today.
- Info, redemption dust stranded in
lockedafter invalid resolutions. - Info, trust assumptions for the operator (chooses which leg keeps the crossing surplus) and for the oracle roles (override restarts the clock, trading stays open until the early report lands).
Test limitations. Slither was not run, per the adapter. The local run needed a forge-std remapping override because the project's auto-remapping points at the package root rather than its
srcdirectory.

Fill-or-kill and IOC are enforced only on the taker leg; a FOK order placed as maker is partially filledcontracts/src/Exchange.sol:53
timeInForce is part of the signed order and is the signer's instruction, but matchOrders() only checks it for matches[i].taker. The operator decides which signed order is the maker and which is the taker of each Match. A FOK order (tif 2) used on the maker leg can be filled for any amount below its size and the remainder stays live; an IOC order (tif 3) on the maker leg is not cancelled after the batch and can be filled again later.
Only post-only (tif 4) is correctly maker-only. The operator is trusted, so this needs a buggy or misbehaving matching engine, but a signed FOK/IOC policy should be enforced by the contract regardless of leg.
Fix: in the post-loop, apply the FOK check to both matches[i].maker and matches[i].taker, and cancel IOC orders on both legs (post-only remains a taker-only rejection).
proof · a Foundry test the fix has to passExecution notional truncates to zero for small fills: tokens move for zero collateral and zero feecontracts/src/Exchange.sol:65
av = amount * price / 1e6 rounds down and there is no check that av > 0. Whenever amount * price < 1e6 (amount < 100 units at price 0.01, < 10 units at 0.10, 1 unit at any price below 1.00) the seller delivers outcome tokens and receives nothing, and both fee transfers (av * feeRateBps / 10_000) are also zero. The same truncation makes fees zero for any notional below 10_000 / feeRateBps units.
The operator chooses
amount, so this is only reachable through the trusted matcher and each fill moves at most 1e-6 USDC of value, which is why it is low. It still breaks the invariant that a filled maker receives at least its limit price, and lets a batch of dust fills consume a maker'sfilledquota without paying.Fix: require(av > 0) in _match (or require amount to be a multiple of 100 so price * amount is exact), and round fees up or require them non-zero when feeRateBps > 0.
State: a holds YES 10e6; a signs sell at price 10_000 (0.01), b signs buy at 10_000.
Operator submits Match amount = 99.
Actual: av = 99 * 10_000 / 1e6 = 0; b receives 99 YES units, a's and b's USDC balances and feeRecipient's balance are unchanged; filled[hash(a)] = 99.
Expected: either the match reverts or b pays at least 1 unit.

proof · a Foundry test the fix has to passPer-mask floor rounding in redeemPositions strands dust in locked[] after invalid or multi-outcome resolutioncontracts/src/ConditionalTokens.sol:84
When the denominator is greater than 1 (any 'invalid' resolution, where denominator = outcomes) each mask's payout is floored separately. Up to outcomes-1 units per mask per redeem are never paid to anyone; they remain in collateral and in locked[market] with no tokens left to claim them.
Collateral is never over-paid (the sum of floors is <= locked, which I checked for split, merge, refine, mergeCompleteSet and redeem), so this is conservation-safe and dust-sized; it only means locked[market] does not return to 0 and the contract accumulates unrecoverable units.
Fix if desired: compute value once over the summed numerator (sum(amount_j * num_j) / denominator) so a single redeem loses at most 1 unit, or merge complementary pairs via mergePositions (which is exact) before redeeming.
State: 3-bucket market id; a splits mask 1 for 1e6 then refines mask 6 into masks 2 and 4; reporter reports invalid after end; finalize -> payouts [1,1,1], denominator 3. a.redeemPositions(id,[1,2,4]): each mask pays 1e6/3 = 333333; claimable = 999999, locked[id] = 1 with every token burned.

Submitting the same two orders with the labels swapped makes b pay 600000 and a pay 400000.

Trust assumptions: each guardian override restarts the dispute clock, and trading stays open between a threshold crossing and the reporter's transactioncontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41
Two privileged-role properties to document, not bypasses. (1) overrideReport() writes a fresh finalizeAt = now + disputeSeconds, so the guardian can postpone finalization indefinitely by overriding again just before each window closes; there is no cap on the number of overrides or a hard deadline.
(2) For
earlybinary markets the outcome becomes publicly observable on Squeekchain telemetry before the reporter's report() lands; isTradable() stays true until that transaction, so informed orders can be matched against resting orders in that interval. Both are consistent with the README's v1 trust model (trusted reporter, guardian override, operator matching) and depend on the reporter being fast and the guardian being honest.

Audit complete. The findings file is written, validated against the tree, and holds four findings. The source tree is untouched; only
contracts/test/scratch/(proof tests and patched copies, not kept) and.imd-findings.jsonwere created.What I reviewed. All five contracts under
contracts/srcplus the test file, with the Access Control, Trust Gap and Asymmetry passes applied first, and the entry-point inventory from the Trail of Bits guide as the base. I also read the live Sepolia deployment's role addresses and dispute delay to ground the trust story. The toolchain ran: the existing 13 tests pass, and I installed OpenZeppelin and forge-std into the gitignored node_modules for compilation.Findings, ranked:
- High, with proof. The guardian cannot correct a wrong early report.
overrideReportis correctly guardian-gated, but it routes through the same_reportprecondition as the reporter, so before the market ends the guardian may only replace an early YES with another above-line distance. Lowering the distance or flagging the report invalid reverts with "Too early". The deployed dispute window is 300 seconds on 24-hour markets, andfinalizeis permissionless, so a mistaken early report is irreversible and NO holders lose everything. The README promises exactly the power that is missing. The proof test fails on current code and passes with a one-flag fix I verified on a patched copy. - Low, with proof. Fill-or-kill and immediate-or-cancel are enforced only on the taker slot, and the maker/taker role is not part of the signed order. The operator can partially fill an FOK order and leave an IOC order resting. Operator-only trigger, bounded by the signer's limit price.
- Info. Each guardian override restarts the dispute window with no cap, so the guardian can postpone finalization indefinitely. Documented as a privileged power.
- Info. No fallback if the reporter goes silent, and all roles are immutable with a single-use
setOracle. One-sided holders have no exit, and fixing the high finding requires redeploying all three core contracts.
What I checked and found sound. Role gating on every state-changing entry point, the one-time oracle setup, signature recovery and replay protection, nonce and cancel paths, collateral conservation across split, merge, refine, redeem and the NegRiskAdapter conversion, the confused-deputy surface of the Exchange's approvals, and pause behaviour (pausing blocks matching only, never user exits). No permission bypass exists for an unprivileged actor. Math, economics and control-flow passes were lighter than the assigned permissions area, and a clean pass is not proof of absence.

Documented as a privileged-power risk, not a bypass: overrideReport (guardian only, inside the window) writes a fresh Report with finalizeAt = block.timestamp + disputeSeconds. There is no cap on the number of overrides or on total elapsed dispute time, and the override may carry identical values.
A guardian can therefore keep a settled-looking market from ever finalizing, and with it keep winners from redeeming (redeemPositions requires resolved) while isTradable is already false, so the exchange is also closed for that market. Holders of complete sets can still exit via mergePositions; one-sided holders cannot.
Minimal fix if the team wants to bound the role: cap the number of overrides (e.g. one) or stop extending finalizeAt when the override does not change the outcome; otherwise record this as an accepted guardian power.
State: market M ended; reporter.report(M, d, h, false) at t -> finalizeAt = t+300.
Steps: at t+299 guardian.overrideReport(M, d, h, false) -> finalizeAt = t+599; at t+598 again -> t+898; repeat every 299 s.
Expected (by the README's 'dispute period'): a bounded period after which payouts are set.
Actual: finalize(M) reverts 'Not final' for as long as the guardian keeps calling; redeemPositions(M, ...) reverts 'Unresolved' for every holder.
Trust assumption: no fallback if the reporter is silent, and all roles are immutable (oracle one-shot in ConditionalTokens)contracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:30
- High, with proof. The guardian cannot correct a wrong early report.
Audit judgeAgent #199found 1 high, 1 medium, 3 low, 4 info
I've written 9 findings to
.imd-findings.json: 1 high, 1 medium, 3 low and 4 info. The 19 specialist reports became 9 findings after merging duplicates; the one item I dropped is explained below. I didn't change any source files. The scratch tests and the dependencies I installed to run them are removed again.How I checked them: I ran the four specialist proof files on the current code. All four fail for the reason their finding gives. I then applied each proposed fix to a temporary copy of the source: all four proofs passed and the existing 13 tests still passed, and the source is back to its original state. For every lower-severity finding I wrote a scratch Foundry test that shows the behaviour on the current code, and all of them reproduced.
Severity Finding Location Merged from high The guardian can't correct or invalidate a wrong early report. Its override goes through the reporter's "Too early" check, so before the market ends it can only replace an over-the-line report with another one. The dispute window closes first, anyone can then finalize, and NO holders lose their whole stake. DistanceOracle.sol:404 specialists (flow, math, permissions, economics) medium On every newly created market, the first trade through the exchange (minting a YES/NO pair from two opposing buys) reverts with "Market closed". The exchange only recognises a token after someone has split or refined it directly. Markets are untradeable until then, but no funds are lost. Exchange.sol:64flow low Fill-or-kill and immediate-or-cancel settings are only enforced when the order is in the taker slot. In the maker slot the same order can be partly filled, or stay live after its fill. Exchange.sol:533 specialists low The trade value rounds down with no minimum. Small fills move tokens for zero payment and zero fee, and when minting a pair the taker can pay 1 unit above its signed price. Exchange.sol:65math, economics low If the reporter never reports, nobody else can start resolution. Holders of only one side are locked out for good. DistanceOracle.sol:30permissions (info), economics (medium) info Each guardian override restarts the dispute clock, so the guardian can delay finalization indefinitely. Recorded as a trust assumption about that role. DistanceOracle.sol:413 specialists info The dispute deadline is stored as a uint64and silently truncates. A dispute delay of 2**64 seconds or more removes the dispute window or blocks finalization. Only reachable through a deliberately absurd deployment setting.DistanceOracle.sol:41math info Redemption rounds each position down separately, so a few units of dust are permanently stuck after an invalid or multi-outcome resolution. ConditionalTokens.sol:84math, economics info The operator decides which order is maker and which is taker, so it decides who gets the price improvement when orders cross. Recorded as a trust assumption. Exchange.sol:73economics Severity changes:
- Guardian override: two specialists rated it medium and two rated it high. I kept high because the wrong outcome becomes final and permanent.
- Missing reporter: rated medium and info by different specialists; I set low. It's a missing fallback for a role that is meant to be trusted, not a way around anyone's permissions.
- Deadline truncation: moved from low to info, since it needs a nonsensical deployment value. I didn't check the deployed contract's actual dispute delay (300 seconds according to the math specialist).
Dropped: the economics claim that people can trade on telemetry after the threshold is crossed but before the reporter's transaction lands. Nothing in the contracts can show that beyond
isTradablebeing true until a report exists.Proofs attached: the high finding carries the flow specialist's proof and the medium carries its fresh-market proof. Bo

proof · a Foundry test the fix has to passComplementary-mint match reverts 'Market closed' on every fresh market: positions(tokenId) is only written by a prior split or refinecontracts/src/Exchange.sol:64
proof · a Foundry test the fix has to passSigned FOK/IOC time-in-force is enforced only on the taker leg; the same order in the maker slot is partially filled or stays livecontracts/src/Exchange.sol:53
Merged from audit_flow, audit_permissions and audit_economics. timeInForce is part of the signed EIP-712 Order, but the maker/taker role is not signed: the operator chooses the slot. _check validates both legs identically, but the post-match loop (lines 50-56) reads only matches[i].taker. So a fill-or-kill (2) order in the maker slot can be partially filled, and an immediate-or-cancel (3) maker order is not cancelled and can be filled again in a later transaction.
The post-only (4) rule is correctly taker-only. Severity is low because only the trusted operator chooses the slots, and the signer's price limit still holds.
Fix: apply the FOK (filled == size) and IOC (cancel) rules to matches[i].maker as well, and keep the post-only revert for the taker only.
Fill notional amount*price/1e6 floors without a minimum: small fills move tokens for zero collateral and zero fee, and in the mint path the taker can pay above its signed limitcontracts/src/Exchange.sol:65
Merged from audit_math and audit_economics. av = m.amount * a.price / 1e6 rounds down, and nothing requires av > 0 or amount to sit on a grid that makes the product exact.
Same-token path: a seller delivers outcome tokens and receives floor(amount*price/1e6), which can be 0, and both fees floor to 0.
Mint path: bv = amount - av = ceil(amount*(1e6 - a.price)/1e6), which can exceed amount*b.price/1e6, so the taker pays more than its signed price. Only the trusted operator picks amount, and the loss is at most 1 unit (1e-6 tUSDC) per fill without compounding, hence low.
Fix: require(m.amount % 100 == 0) (prices are multiples of 10_000, so the notional is then exact), or require av > 0 and round toward the party whose limit would otherwise be violated.
Same-token: a holds YES; a signs sell YES @10000 (fee 100 bps), b signs buy YES @10000; operator matches amount=99.
Expected: seller receives about 0.99 units, or a revert.
Actual: USDC balances of a, b and feeRecipient are unchanged, and b receives 99 YES.
Mint: a buys YES @600000, b buys NO @400000, amount=1.
Expected: b pays at most floor(0.4)=0.
Actual: a pays 0, b pays 1.
Reproduced in scratch tests testZeroNotionalFill and testMintTakerPaysAboveLimit (both pass, confirming the behaviour).
No resolution path if the reporter never reports: the guardian cannot start one, and one-sided positions stay locked forevercontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:30
Merged from audit_permissions (info) and audit_economics (medium). Every resolution starts with report(), which only the immutable reporter can call. overrideReport requires an existing report (finalizeAt != 0), and there is no timeout fallback.
If the reporter key is lost or the service stops, finalize reverts 'Not final' and redeemPositions reverts 'Unresolved' forever. isTradable is false after end, so holders of only one side, the normal result of exchange trading, cannot exit; only complete-set holders can mergePositions. The reporter is a designed trusted role, so this is a missing-liveness-fallback issue rather than a bypass, rated low.
Fix that keeps the design: let the guardian file the first report (or an invalid one) once block.timestamp >= end + grace and reports[id].finalizeAt == 0, or allow a permissionless invalid resolution after a long timeout.
State: early market M (end 200000); a split 10e6 (mask 1).
No report is filed.
At t=300000: isTradable(M) == false; guardian overrideReport(M, 0, 0, true) reverts 'Outside dispute window'; finalize(M) reverts 'Not final'; a redeemPositions(M,[1]) reverts 'Unresolved'.
Expected: some actor can resolve or invalidate after a grace period.
Reproduced in scratch test testNoReportNoResolution.
Trust assumption: each guardian override restarts the dispute clock, so the guardian can postpone finalization indefinitelycontracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41
Merged from audit_flow, audit_permissions and audit_economics. _report always stores finalizeAt = now + disputeSeconds, and overrideReport only requires now < finalizeAt. Repeated overrides, even with identical values, push finalization out without bound. Meanwhile trading is closed and redeemPositions reverts 'Unresolved'.
This is a power of the designed guardian role and is documented as a trust assumption. If a bound is wanted: keep the original finalizeAt on override, extend it at most once, or cap it at max(original, m.end + disputeSeconds).
disputeSeconds=10; at t=200000 the reporter reports M (finalizeAt 200010).
The guardian calls overrideReport(M, 900, 0, false) every 9 s, 50 times; finalizeAt becomes 200460 and finalize(M) still reverts 'Not final' at t=200459.
Reproduced in scratch test testGuardianExtendsIndefinitely.
uint64 cast of block.timestamp + disputeSeconds truncates; a delay of 2**64 or more wraps finalizeAt (zero dispute window or never finalizable)contracts/src/DistanceOracle.sol:41
disputeSeconds is a uint256 bounded only by >= 1 (line 18). The stored finalizeAt is uint64(block.timestamp + disputeSeconds), which truncates silently, while the event emits the untruncated value. A delay of 2**64 makes finalizeAt equal the report time, so finalize succeeds in the same block.
A delay of 2**64 - ts gives 0, which leaves the report re-fileable and makes finalize unreachable. This is reachable only through an absurd deployment argument; the audit_math specialist reports the live Sepolia oracle uses 300, which I did not re-check. So it is hardening, not low.
Fix: bound delay in the constructor (e.g. <= 365 days) or use SafeCast.toUint64.
Deploy DistanceOracle(ctf, reporter, guardian, 2**64); at t=100000 createMarket(M, 99999, 200000, 1000, true, []); report(M, 1001, 0, false).
Expected finalizeAt = 100000 + 2**64.
Actual: reports(M).finalizeAt == 100000, and finalize(M) succeeds in the same block with payout(M,0)=1.
Reproduced in scratch test testFinalizeAtWrap.
Per-mask floor division in redeemPositions strands dust in locked[market] after invalid or multi-outcome resolutioncontracts/src/ConditionalTokens.sol:84
Merged from audit_math and audit_economics. Each mask's value amount*num/denominator is floored separately, so a complete set split across masks redeems for less than par when denominator > 1. Up to (masks-1) units stay in locked[market] with no tokens left to claim them. mergePositions, which has no resolved guard, still returns par for the same tokens.
Collateral is never over-paid, so this is conservation-safe and dust-sized.
Fix: sum the numerators over all masks before one division, i.e. value = sum(amount_j*num_j)/denominator.
createMarket(id, 99999, 200000, 0, false, [500,1000]) (3 outcomes); a splitPosition(id, 1, 10e6), holding masks 1 and 6.
At t=200001 report(id, 0, 0, true); at t=200011 finalize -> payouts [1,1,1], denominator 3. a redeemPositions(id, [1,6]).
Expected claimable 10_000_000.
Actual 9_999_999, and locked[id] == 1 permanently.
Reproduced in scratch test testRedeemDustStranded.
Trust assumption: the unsigned maker/taker role lets the operator decide which crossing order gets the price improvementcontracts/src/Exchange.sol:73
The execution price is always the maker leg's price (av = amount*a.price/1e6), and in the mint/merge path the taker gets the whole surplus (bv = amount - av). The operator assigns the maker and taker slots freely, so it decides who pays their full limit and who gets the spread. This is within the stated operator-matching design and is documented as a trust boundary, not a bypass.
Fix if wanted: tie role to a signed field, or split the surplus deterministically.
a signs buy YES @600000, b signs buy NO @600000 (fee 100 bps each).
Match{maker=a, taker=b, amount=1e6}: a pays 600000+6000, b pays 400000+4000.
Swapping the slots reverses who pays 600000.
