• 1.highCDPVault._clampLag nets the lag against AGGREGATE start figures, so cancelling another borrower's warm principal (cash, bite or cover) and drawing the same amount in one transaction transfers its warmsrc/CDPVault.sol:894

          laggedDebt = totalDebt < startDebt ? totalDebt : startDebt;
          laggedSecured = securedCollateral < startSecured ? securedCollateral : startSecured;

  Q1, breaking the newest fix (8756817, 'the lag netted per transaction'). _clampLag now sets laggedDebt = min(totalDebt, startDebt) and laggedSecured = min(securedCollateral, startSecured), where start* is the lagged figure the transaction FIRST found (_lagAtStart, transient).

  The record is of the aggregate, not of the position whose capital moved, so any transaction in which totalDebt and securedCollateral end where they began leaves the lag untouched whoever's capital left and whoever's arrived. Before 8756817 the step-by-step clamp dropped laggedDebt to 0 at the cancellation and the attacker's redraw warmed from zero over BACKING_WARMUP, which is exactly what closed D1 (launch audit 2026-10-05, vault panel, medium). The fix reopens it.

  Call sequence (a contract, one transaction): cash(D, 0, HONEST) against any position inside the redeemable band (CR < mat + gap = 220%), paying only the redemption fee (0.5% to 5%) and receiving the candidate's collateral at backing less the fee; then lock(C); then draw(D).

  Inside the cash, _reduceDebt -> _resecure -> _clampLag records startDebt = D (warm) and startSecured; the cancellation lowers both to about 0; the draw raises totalDebt back to D and _clampLag sets laggedDebt = min(D, startDebt) = D and laggedSecured = min(C, startSecured). The same swap works through bite (paid the 20% bonus to do it) and through cover (the Treasury's imdUSD pays, nothing for the caller).

  Next transaction: backedDebt() = min(totalDebt, debtAtTxStart, laggedNow) - bad = D, earnLine() = reserve + 25% of D, earn mints; a third transaction wipes and frees. The whole round trip also fits in ONE transaction: ParameterizedVault._debtChanged records the total BEFORE the first change, i.e. the honest D the cash cancels, so _debtAtTransactionStart() = D and the finding-4d30331c cap passes too (cash, lock, draw, earn, wipe, free in one call).

  The redemption half is lifted the same way: _backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and min(prior, lagDebt), both left where they were, so the attacker's fresh collateral reads as warm backing for a reserve redemption at par in the next transaction.

  Who loses: every imdUSD holder (work-minted supply with nothing behind it once the attacker unwinds: in the proof totalEarned 250e18 against totalDebt 0.33e18 and backing 0.0013e18), and for the redemption half the remaining holders.

  Cost: the 5% redemption fee on D when done through cash (less in smaller tranches as the base decays), the bonus is EARNED through bite, nothing through cover. Reachable with the constants as committed once governance has applied a wage (48-hour proposal; the compute channel is the lag's stated purpose); at WAGE_WAD 0 earn is refused (WorkMintingOff) and only the redemption half is reachable.

  NatSpec the code does not have: lines 884-890 ('capital that leaves and comes back inside one transaction ... leaves the lag where it was' is true, but so does DIFFERENT capital), lines 302-304 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting'), ParameterizedVault 241-244 ('the ratio term is only ever backed by positions that existed before the caller arrived').

  Smallest fix: net per POSITION, not per transaction.

  In _reduceDebt / _resecure record, transiently keyed by the position (a transient mapping slot derived from the owner), the amount by which THAT position's own decrease lowered laggedDebt and laggedSecured in this transaction; on the SAME position's later increase within the transaction restore min(increase, its own recorded decrease) to the lagged figure (bounded by the live figure); clamp every other change step by step as before (laggedDebt = min(laggedDebt, totalDebt) after each change).

  Then the attacker's draw restores nothing (its own decrease was zero) and a borrower's own wipe-and-redraw still nets. Merged from audit_permissions 351ba7cc.

  test/scratch/NettingTransfersWarmth.t.sol (attached as proof; both tests fail on this code).

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal MockIMD at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 x Chainlink ETH/USD 2000e8 etched at CHAINLINK_ETH_USD), NHI 0.85 (mat 170, gap 50), wage 0.01 applied through Parameters.proposeWage + TIMELOCK + applyPending; TreasuryFactory etched at TREASURY_FACTORY.

  HONEST locks 2,000 IMD, draws 1,000 imdUSD (200%, inside the redeemable band) and transfers the 1,000 imdUSD to the attacker contract, which holds 1,800 IMD and 1,000 rights from MockWorkOracle.grantRights; three days pass: laggedNow() debt == 1,000e18, earnLine() == 250e18.

  Test 1: attacker.swap(1000e18, HONEST, 1800e18, 1000e18) = cash + lock + draw in ONE transaction.

  Afterwards HONEST's debt is under 1 imdUSD (fee residue) and the attacker's principal is 1,000e18, zero seconds old.

  Next transaction: EXPECTED laggedNow() debt about 0.33e18 (the residue), earnLine() under 1e18, attacker.earn(250e18) reverts WorkCeilingReached, totalEarned 0.

  ACTUAL (logged): laggedDebt 1000000000000000000000, earnLine 250000000000000000000, earn(250e18) succeeds ('next call did not revert as expected').

  Test 2: attacker.roundTrip(...) = cash, lock, draw, earn(250e18), wipe(debtOf), free(1800e18) in ONE transaction.

  EXPECTED: the earn reverts WorkCeilingReached inside the call.

  ACTUAL: the call succeeds; totalEarned() == 250e18 with the attacker's debt 0 and collateral withdrawn, totalDebt about 0.33e18, supply about 250.33e18.

• 2.mediumcover's recorded-bad-debt sweep (8756817) takes a re-collateralised borrower's WHOLE collateral for any caller-chosen `amount`, as little as one wei of debt, crediting nothing and skipping mark, gracesrc/CDPVault.sol:558

                      || (recorded != 0 && Math.mulDiv(position.collateral, price, 1e18) < recorded);

  Q3. The new second clause of sweepable sweeps, on a position with _recordedBadDebt != 0, any collateral worth less than that record at the fresh price: position.collateral is zeroed, all of it goes to the Treasury (gem.safeTransfer(payer, dust)), and the position's debt then falls only by amount, which is required to be nonzero and at most the debt, burned from the Treasury's imdUSD.

  Nothing credits the swept value against the debt it stood behind, and the branch does not require amount to retire anything like it. _recordedBadDebt is written to debtOf at drain and to min(previous, debtOf) at repayment; adding collateral never lowers it, and the totalBadDebt NatSpec (286-291) says a drained borrower who re-collateralises and keeps a healthy loan open is an accepted state.

  So every once-drained borrower carries the exposure for the life of the loan: whenever the market puts its collateral below the old record (about a 45% fall from a 200% re-lock, or simply re-locking in two tranches), anyone's cover(owner, 1) strips it.

  Every other underwater position gets bark, the NHI grace (six hours at NHI >= 0.85) and a bite that seizes exactly 1.2x the debt it repays and retires that debt; this path seizes everything, retires one wei, and the borrower still owes the whole record.

  The caller gains nothing directly (the collateral lands in the surplus account), so this is griefing or a mis-sized honest cover, but the operator's own keeper calls cover to retire realized bad debt in the ordinary course and will trigger it. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance.

  It also contradicts the function NatSpec at 531-532 ('Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)'): $262 of collateral against a $291.7 record is reachable by a bite of 218 imdUSD.

  Smallest fix: in the sweep branch credit the swept value before burning amount: cancel min(debt, mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18)) of the position's debt through _reduceDebt (fees first; record, totalBadDebt and totalDebt move together) so the sweep is a repayment in kind at price, and only then burn amount from the Treasury; or require amount >= min(mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18), debtOf(owner)) so a sweep is a one-for-one liquidation the surplus funds; or drop the recorded-bad-debt clause and keep the NatSpec's rule.

  Reword 531-532 either way. Merged from audit_economics 05796c11, audit_math 9282f397 and audit_flow 96f4d5b6 (the same clause, one as a two-tranche re-lock losing the first tranche).

  whole finding

  test/scratch/Proof_05796c11d426.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85 (mat 170, lull 6 h).

  BORROWER locks 1,700 and draws 1,000 (exactly mat); KEEPER locks 20,000 and draws 5,000.

  Price to $0.50; bark(BORROWER); +6 h; KEEPER bites floor(1,700 x 0.5 / 1.2) = 708.33 imdUSD: collateral 0, recorded bad debt R = 291.7e18.

  Price back to $1; the Treasury holds 10 imdUSD.

  BORROWER re-locks 2R = 583.4 IMD (CR about 200%, healthy); cover(BORROWER, 1) reverts NoRealizedBadDebt as intended.

  Price to $0.45: collateral worth 262.5 < R.

  STRANGER calls cover(BORROWER, 1).

  EXPECTED: refused (a bite could reach it at 1.2x), or collateral leaves only against debt retired at no worse than the bite formula.

  ACTUAL: positions(BORROWER).collateral == 0, 583.4 IMD ($262.5) in the Treasury, debtOf(BORROWER) fell by exactly 1 wei: assertion '262527369863013698100 > 2'.

  Second variant (audit_math, same clause, read and consistent with the proof): price back to $1, BORROWER lock(160e18) as the first tranche of a rebuild worth $160 < the $166.7 record; cover(BORROWER, 1) moves all 160 IMD to the Treasury for 1 wei of debt.

• 3.mediumCDPVault._backingPerUnit: imdUSD burned earlier in the same transaction is not added back to the supply (or to the prior debt), so a same-call wipe / cash / draw by a borrower in the 170-200% band is src/CDPVault.sol:708

          uint256 supply = stablecoin.totalSupply();

  Q1/Q6/Q7. The transient tallies net out capital that ARRIVES inside a transaction (SECURED_THIS_TX_SLOT, MINTED_THIS_TX_SLOT), and since 8756817 _clampLag leaves the lag where it was when debt leaves and returns inside one transaction. Nothing nets out imdUSD BURNED inside the transaction: _backingPerUnit divides by the live stablecoin.totalSupply(), and _securedCollateralValue caps at mat x the live totalDebt less this transaction's mints.

  A borrower whose collateral ratio is in [170%, 200%) has a secured term equal to its whole collateral (min(collateral, 2 x principal / price) binds on the collateral), so it can repay up to principal - collateral x price / 2 (15% of its principal at 170%) WITHOUT its term moving: the numerator holds while the denominator falls by the repayment. In the same call it redeems at that inflated figure, then draws the repayment back.

  Debt, supply and every position end where they began; the redeemer was paid above the honest pro-rata figure; and because _clampLag restores laggedDebt to the transaction's starting level on the redraw, the churn costs nothing afterwards (before 8756817 it left the lag depressed for a day).

  The boost is supply / (supply - repaid), up to about 7% in the regime where it applies (backing below par, which needs underwater debt of at least about 1.4x the churner's), a transfer from every other imdUSD holder to the redeemer, repeatable every transaction while the regime lasts, for gas plus briefly holding imdUSD equal to the repayment. Reachable with the constants as committed at any wage, no work supply needed.

  NatSpec the code does not have: lines 229-234 ('capital which exists only for the length of the call can neither inflate the backing the guard measures nor dilute the supply the fee is measured against') and the cash() comment at 651 ('Paying pro-rata instead is exactly neutral on backing by construction').

  Smallest fix: tally principal repaid in the transaction in a transient slot (BURNED_THIS_TX_SLOT, added in _payDebt, cover's burn and cash's burn, or in _reduceDebt for the principal part) and add it back to supply in _backingPerUnit and to prior in _securedCollateralValue (live and lagged), so a repayment counts only once it has outlived the transaction, symmetric with how a draw is excluded. The same slot fixes the _redemptionRate finding below. From audit_flow cbe35dcb.

  test/scratch/Proof_cbe35dcb7f1b.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85 (mat 170, candidates below 220%).

  A contract borrower locks 5,780 IMD and draws 1,000; OTHER locks 5,100, draws 3,000 and hands the borrower its 3,000 imdUSD.

  Price falls to $0.294: borrower at 170% (secured term = its whole 5,780), OTHER at 50%.

  Both touched at the new price and warmed three days: backingPerUnit() = 0.79968e18.

  EXPECTED: cash(500e18, 0, borrower) pays the same whether or not the borrower repays and redraws inside the same call, since debt and supply are identical before and after: 1,292.0 IMD.

  ACTUAL: cash alone pays 1292000000000000000000 raw; wipe(150e18) + cash(500e18, 0, borrower) + draw(150e18) in ONE transaction pays 1342083237164646386054 raw (+3.9%): inside the call supply fell 4,000 -> 3,850 while the collateral term held at 3,198, so backing read 3,198 / 3,850 = 0.8306 instead of 0.7997.

  Assertion: '1342083237164646386054 > 1292000000000000000000'.

  Afterwards backingPerUnit() for everyone else is 0.7144e18 instead of the pro-rata-neutral 0.7997e18.

• 4.medium_redemptionRate nets supply MINTED this transaction out of the fee base but not supply BURNED, so a dominant borrower's wipe / cash / draw pins the redemption fee at the 5% cap for a tenth of the honesrc/CDPVault.sol:831

          uint256 prior = supply > minted ? supply - minted : 0;

  Q6, the fee base. The increase a burn adds to redemptionBaseRate is amount / prior / divisor with prior = totalSupply() - (principal and work minted this transaction). A burn earlier in the same transaction lowers totalSupply() and is not added back, so prior is the post-burn supply, not 'the supply that existed before this transaction' as the NatSpec at 819 states.

  A borrower holding share s of the supply as its own debt wipes it (burning its imdUSD), redeems a small amount against the shrunken supply, and draws the principal back, in one transaction: the base rate is set as if the burn were 1/(1-s) times larger.

  Reaching the 4.5% cap honestly costs a burn of 9% of supply at the 5% fee (0.45% of supply lost to the fee); with s = 90% it costs 0.9% of supply at the same fee, ten times less, and the pinned base decays with a twelve-hour half-life, so the pump is repeated twice a day. The redemption can be reserve-funded (freshCancelled == 0, so the base stands whole) or against any seasoned third-party position; the borrower's own position is unchanged afterwards.

  Victims: every later redeemer pays up to 500 bps instead of 50 for the next half-life or two, and the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) the cash() comment promises sits at 0.95 on demand, which blunts the arbitrage that defends the peg; a candidate borrower can use it to deter redemptions against itself.

  Reachable with the constants as committed (divisor 2, wage 0), no governance; needs a borrower whose debt is a large share of supply (LINE is $1M at launch, so one large position suffices).

  Smallest fix: track burns in a transient slot (BURNED_THIS_TX_SLOT, added in _payDebt, cover's burn and cash's burn) and measure prior = supply + burned - minted, mirroring the existing minted netting; the same slot serves the _backingPerUnit finding above. From audit_math 8dd9e22f.

  whole finding

  test/scratch/Proof_8dd9e22f56eb.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

  ParameterizedVault at $1, launch constants (divisor 2, wage 0).

  A contract borrower locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives the borrower 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded; supply 1,000, redemptionBaseRate 0, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) quotes 95 (floor 50 + 9/1000/2 = 45 bps).

  The borrower calls wipe(900e18), cash(9e18, 0, address(0)), draw(900e18) in one transaction.

  EXPECTED: redemptionBaseRate == 0.0045e18 (45 bps, the increase for a 9-of-1,000 burn).

  ACTUAL: 0.045e18, the cap: assertion '45000000000000000 > 4500000000000001'; redemptionFeeBps(0) reads 500 for everyone; the borrower's position is 2,000 / 900 again and the pump cost 0.45 imdUSD of fee.

• 5.mediumThe per-transaction netting of _clampLag lives in transient storage, so a borrower's wipe in one transaction and draw in the next (same block) still clamps laggedDebt and laggedSecured at once: with wsrc/CDPVault.sol:905

              tstore(slot, add(current, 1))

  Q1, second half: the gap the 8756817 fix for the final panel's medium leaves open, reported because the question asks what it costs and blocks. _lagAtStart records the transaction's starting lagged figures in transient storage, which the EVM clears at the end of each transaction, so 'a decrease that lasted' (NatSpec 889-890) includes a decrease that lasted zero seconds: the same sender's wipe(debtOf) as transaction N and draw(same) as transaction N+1 of one block (consecutive nonces from one key, or a bundle) clamp laggedDebt and laggedSecured to the post-wipe level, and transaction N+1 records that clamped level as ITS start, so the redraw warms from there over about a day (exponentially longer under activity, 297-302).

  Nothing elapses between the two: no stability fee, no price exposure, no attestation purchase, and the borrower already holds the imdUSD it drew.

  Effect with work-minted supply E outstanding (wage nonzero, the state the lag exists for): a borrower holding share s of the debt D leaves the lagged backing at (reserve + 1.7(1-s)D) / ((1-s)D + E); for the sole borrower with no reserve that is 0, so cash reverts ZeroAmount for every redeemer, a redeemer with minGemOut set is refused, and earnLine() falls with it (262.5 -> 12.5 in audit_economics' run); recovery is 0.24 after one quiet hour, par after a quiet day, and the churn is repeatable every block.

  At launch (wage 0, E = 0) the debt side cancels (supply <= fresh skips the lagged figure, or the lagged denominator is the other borrowers' own debt), but the collateral side still binds after a price fall that puts the collateral term in charge: a healthy surplus holder's free(x) then lock(x) in two transactions leaves laggedSecured at the lower level for a day, 1.00 -> 0.90 in the reproduction, and every redeemer is paid against it; a churner that is itself a candidate has its debt cancelled for less collateral per imdUSD.

  Cost: two transactions of gas, fresh agreeing feeds for the draw / free, and health at the redraw, which the position already had.

  Who loses: redeemers (closed or underpaid) and rights holders refused by the ceiling; the peg floor the cash() comment at 659-660 presents as min(1 - fee, backing) does not hold against the clamped figure actually paid. Reachable with the constants as committed for the collateral-side variant (stressed state); with a governed wage for the zero-backing variant.

  Smallest fix that keeps 'a decrease by someone else counts at once': the per-position record from the high finding above, kept in STORAGE for BACKING_WARMUP rather than in transient storage: record per position the lagged amounts its own decrease clamped (coolingDebt, coolingSecured, cooledAt); when the same position's principal or term rises again within BACKING_WARMUP of cooledAt, add min(increase, cooling) directly to laggedDebt / laggedSecured (bounded by the live figures) instead of routing it through _approach.

  Netting per block alone is not enough: the same two calls one block apart cost twelve seconds. Alternatively accept it and say so where the peg floor is claimed, and have the keeper (docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md) watch laggedSecured.

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85, wage 0.01 applied through Parameters after the 48 h timelock.

  BORROWER locks 2,000 IMD and draws 1,000 imdUSD; a day later WORKER earns 250 imdUSD (the ceiling) and hands 10 to the borrower for fees; a day later backingPerUnit() == 1e18, laggedNow() == (1,000e18, 2,000e18).

  BORROWER calls wipe(debtOf) [tx 1] then draw(1,000e18) [tx 2, same block].

  Position afterwards: 2,000 collateral, 1,000 principal; the churn cost under 0.3 imdUSD of fees.

  EXPECTED: backingPerUnit() == 1e18 and REDEEMER's cash(10e18, 0, BORROWER) pays about 9.91 IMD.

  ACTUAL: laggedDebt == 0, laggedSecured == 0, backingPerUnit() == 0 ('an adjacent-transaction round trip must not move backing: 0 != 1000000000000000000'), and cash reverts ZeroAmount().

  Launch-constant variant (audit_permissions, wage 0, read and consistent with the code): WORKER 2,000 / 1,000, OTHER 38,000 / 1,000, IMD to $0.05, both terms re-priced by lock(1), a day warm: backingPerUnit 1e18; OTHER sends free(3,990e18) then lock(3,990e18) as two transactions in one block: laggedSecured 36,010e18 + 2 against securedCollateral 40,000e18 + 2 and backingPerUnit 0.90025e18 for the next day.

  whole reproduction

• 6.low_resecure keeps a position's whole previous term through an ungated wipe while the price is unreadable, so a dead ETH/USD or share leg plus a repayment overstates securedCollateral (a term sized for tsrc/CDPVault.sol:865

              ? (position.debt == 0 ? 0 : Math.min(before, position.collateral))

  Q4, breaking the 8756817 fix (final panel, oracle, low).

  The fix keeps min(before, collateral) when _priceOrZero() reads 0 (ParameterizedVault: a reverting, non-positive or malformed Chainlink ETH/USD answer, or a share vault that stops answering convertToAssets; a merely stale answer still prices). lock keeping before is conservative (collateral only rose), but wipe is ungated too and lowers the principal while the term stays: the term is min(collateral, 2 x principal / price), bounded by PRINCIPAL as well as collateral, and a position with 2,000 collateral and 1,000 principal at $0.40 (term 2,000) that repays 999 during the outage keeps a term of 2,000 where a priced checkpoint gives min(2,000, 2 x 1.5 / 0.40) = about 7.4.

  The securedCollateral NatSpec at 250-251 no longer holds. The overstatement persists after the leg recovers: only that position's own lock/free/draw/wipe, or a redemption or bite against it, re-prices the term, and a healthy position with one wei of principal is refused by bite, cash-as-candidate and cover, so nobody else can force a checkpoint and the owner (who may also be the redeemer) has every reason not to.

  It feeds both the live and the lagged side of _backingPerUnit (securedCollateral never fell, so _clampLag had nothing to clamp).

  It is hidden while the aggregate cap mat x prior binds and matters exactly when honest backing is below par (a price fall after the outage): the reserve-funded part of cash then pays at par instead of at backing (the position-funded part is stopped by RedemptionWorsensRatio), so the Treasury's reserve is overpaid by (par - honest backing) on every unit redeemed, at the remaining holders' expense. The work ceiling is unaffected (earnLine reads debt, not securedCollateral).

  Preconditions are exogenous (a revert-dead leg, not reachable by an unprivileged actor; then a fall; then a reserve), hence low; but it is the mirror image of the underpayment the fix removed, and it lasts indefinitely where the underpayment lasted a day.

  The _secured NatSpec at 844 ('an unpriced feed counts the position for nothing') describes the behaviour the fix removed, and 863 ('the next priced checkpoint of the position corrects it') omits that only the owner can produce one.

  Smallest fix: when price == 0 and the principal fell, scale the kept term by the principal ratio: pass the previous principal from _reduceDebt and use min(before, collateral, mulDiv(before, position.debt, oldDebt)); the bound 2 x principal / price is linear in principal, so this is exact when the bound was binding and only tightens when the collateral was; lock / lockIMD may keep before as they do.

  Then reword 844 and 863. audit_economics validated that with this patch the Cover, LaggedBacking, BadDebtSweep, MarkerBadDebt, Redemption, RedemptionEconomics and Liquidation suites stay green except test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_aDeadLegNeitherZeroesTheSecuredTermNorTheLag, which pins the term as kept to the wei and would assert the scaled figure instead.

  whole finding

  test/scratch/DeadLegWipe.t.sol, written for this review (fails on this code; no proof slot left).

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1 (Chainlink ETH/USD etched at 2000e8), NHI 0.85, the Treasury holding 50 IMD.

  A locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; B locks 2,000, draws 1,000 and hands the imdUSD to REDEEMER.

  Price to $0.40; A and B each lock(1) to re-price their terms; four quiet days: securedCollateral == 4,000e18 + 2, backingPerUnit() == 0.81e18. vm.mockCallRevert on CHAINLINK_ETH_USD latestRoundData: REDEEMER's cash(20e18, 0, B) reverts StaleFeed as designed; A calls wipe(999e18), ungated.

  Mock cleared.

  EXPECTED: the unpriced figure never exceeds the next priced one: A's term min(2,000, 2 x 1.5 / 0.40) = about 7.4, securedCollateral about 2,007e18, backingPerUnit about 0.82e18.

  ACTUAL (logged): securedCollateral kept 4000000000000000000002, backingPerUnit kept 1000000000000000000; after A's lock(1) re-prices it: securedCollateral 2007432876712328765001, backingPerUnit 821751555085508501 ('the unpriced figure must not exceed the next priced one: 1000000000000000000 > 821751555085508501').

  A reserve-funded cash(20e18, 0, B) before the touch pays 49250000000000000000 IMD (par less the fee) against 40471264087961293650 once re-priced: 8.78 IMD of the Treasury's reserve overpaid per 20 imdUSD.

• 7.infoNatSpec and comments that claim properties the committed code does not have after 8756817: _clampLag 'a decrease that lasted', backedDebt 'positions that existed before the caller arrived', _redemptiosrc/CDPVault.sol:890

      /// one transaction and returns in another still re-warms: a decrease that lasted is a decrease.

  Each is the documentation half of a finding above; reword to the behaviour the code has, or fix the code and keep the text. (1) 884-890, _clampLag: 'capital that leaves and comes back inside one transaction ... leaves the lag where it was' is also true of DIFFERENT capital (high finding), and 'a decrease that lasted is a decrease' treats a wipe and a redraw in adjacent transactions of one block, lasting zero seconds, as lasting (medium finding).

  (2) 302-304 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting') and ParameterizedVault.sol 241-244 ('the ratio term is only ever backed by positions that existed before the caller arrived'): the swap mints work against zero-second debt in the same transaction. (3) 819, _redemptionRate: 'the burned fraction of the supply that existed before this transaction': supply burned in the transaction is not added back.

  (4) 229-234, the transient tallies: 'capital which exists only for the length of the call can neither inflate the backing the guard measures nor dilute the supply the fee is measured against': a same-call repayment does both. (5) 531-532, cover: 'Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)': the recorded-bad-debt clause at 558 sweeps bite-reachable collateral.

• 8.infoPosition struct NatSpec is garbled after 8756817: the inserted 1e18-scaled-seconds clause left the old tail in place, so the sentence states the date twice and reads as whole seconds at its endsrc/CDPVault.sol:41

          /// @dev Principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of `mintedAt` and still outstanding, and
          /// `mintedAt` is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see `draw`),
          /// its amount-weighted mint time. Only redemption reads them: see `_redeemPosition`.

  Lines 41-43 read as one sentence: 'Principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding, and mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see draw), its amount-weighted mint time. Only redemption reads them'. The inserted clause was meant to replace the trailing one.

  A reader of the ABI docs or the struct will take mintedAt for a Unix timestamp unless they reach the inner clause; everything that reads it (draw 472-477, _reduceDebt 1230-1241, _recentlyMinted 838-840) uses WAD-scaled seconds correctly, and Q5's arithmetic is otherwise sound: principal-time is conserved through every draw/wipe pair to within rounding (draw rounds the weighted date toward the present by at most one wad-second, _reduceDebt rounds the age up), a tranche can only re-date a record by its share, a repayment retires the youngest first, and an aged-out record restarts at the present.

  Fix: 'recentlyMinted is the principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding; mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-scaled seconds (block.timestamp * 1e18, see draw and _reduceDebt). Only redemption reads them: see _redeemPosition.' Merged from audit_flow f45983ab and audit_permissions 8bd7982a.

  whole finding

  Read src/CDPVault.sol:41-43 as one sentence against _recentlyMinted (838-840: block.timestamp * 1e18 - mintedAt < 12 hours * 1e18) and draw (472-477).

  EXPECTED: one grammatical statement of the two fields and their unit.

  ACTUAL: the clause 'its amount-weighted mint time' appears twice, the second in whole-second wording after the corrected one. test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_drawAndWipePairsDoNotKeepSeasonedDebtFresh pins the code behaviour per the inner clause.

• 9.info_redemptionReserveBacking's second return value (the rounded-up value leaving the reserve) is computed and never read: the only caller passes amount 0 and discards itsrc/CDPVault.sol:710

          (uint256 reserve,) = _redemptionReserveBacking(0, price);

  The virtual _redemptionReserveBacking(amount, price) at 225 returns (reserve backing, ceil(amount x price / 1e18)); ParameterizedVault overrides it at 172-183 with the same shape. The only call is _backingPerUnit at 710, with a literal 0 for amount and (uint256 reserve,) destructuring. The second computation is a remnant of the refused-redemption guard that the pro-rata payout replaced (the cash comment at 636-648 describes the replacement).

  No behaviour depends on it; it costs a mulDiv per redemption and makes the ParameterizedVault NatSpec at 164-171 ('One valuation for the IMD held and the IMD leaving is what makes the comparison mean something') describe a comparison that no longer happens.

  Fix: drop the parameter and the second return (and the ParameterizedVault override's), or document it as unused. From audit_math d32ebe3b.

  grep -n '_redemptionReserveBacking' src/*.sol shows exactly three lines: the definition (src/CDPVault.sol:225), the override (src/ParameterizedVault.sol:172) and one call site (src/CDPVault.sol:710) with a literal 0 as the first argument and the second return value discarded; no other reader exists in src/.

1. Posted24 minto the first attempt
2. Audit flowAgent #368found 1 medium, 2 low, 2 info

   The review is complete. .imd-findings.json holds five findings (1 medium, 2 low, 2 info); the two most substantive carry self-contained Foundry proofs under test/scratch/ that fail on the committed code. The repository's own suite still passes 570/0.

   Findings

   1. Medium, CDPVault._backingPerUnit (line 708). A repayment that lasts only for the call inflates the redemption payout. Same-transaction deposits and draws are netted out of backing, and the newest fix nets the lag on a wipe-and-redraw, but imdUSD burned in the transaction still leaves totalSupply(), the denominator. A contract borrower in the 170–200% band can repay up to 15% of its principal without its secured term moving, redeem against the shrunken supply, and redraw. Measured: cash of 500 imdUSD against itself pays 1,292.0 IMD alone and 1,342.1 IMD inside a wipe/cash/draw call (+3.9%; bound about 7%). The redraw is now free precisely because _clampLag restores the lag to the transaction's start. Needs a below-par regime (crash with unliquidated debt), no governance. Fix: tally principal repaid this transaction and add it back to supply and prior debt in the backing read. Proof attached.

   2. Low, CDPVault._resecure (line 865). The 8756817 fix keeps a position's term when the price is unreadable, bounded only by collateral. The term is also bounded by principal, and wipe is ungated: repaying 999 of 1,000 during a dead Chainlink leg keeps a 2,000 IMD term where the re-priced one is 18 IMD, and only the owner can trigger a re-price. After recovery a 100 imdUSD reserve redemption paid 316.7 IMD against 209.7 honest. Fix: scale the kept term by the principal ratio. Proof attached.

   3. Low, _clampLag cross-transaction residual (line 895). Documented as accepted, reported because Q1 asks. Debt-side churn at wage 0 is harmless (verified: backing stays at par). Collateral-side free/relock in adjacent blocks after a crash drops backing 1.00 → 0.9025 for a day. With a nonzero wage a dominant borrower drives it to reserve/work-supply.

   4. Info, cover (line 557). The gates hold and no cheap block exists, but the "worth less than recorded bad debt" sweep has no mark or grace: a staged recapitalisation lost a $175 first tranche to cover(A, 1) in the same block.

   5. Info, Position struct NatSpec (line 43) is garbled by the inserted 1e18-seconds clause.

   Answers where nothing is wrong

   • Q1 one-transaction: the lag cannot exceed the transaction's starting level; lowering it within a call only hurts the churner.
   • Q2: _earnOpen and _lagApplies read the same wage() in the same call, so earn never mints with the lag off; one proposal slot plus the wage-zero gate freezes totalEarned during a pending oracle replacement.
   • Q5: principal-time is conserved through every draw/wipe pair to within (fresh+amount)/fresh wad-seconds; a tranche can round a record to the present only with under about 25 wei fresh.
   • Q6: every payout is bounded by its formula, the bad-debt record and total move together on every path, chiOf is only written from chi() and Parameters drips before a rate lands.
   • Q7: gating is complete except the three documented ungated paths; the ungated cover sweep is worth about a wei even at a feed-capped stale price; no overflow at sIMD scale; transient slot hashes and the decay constant verify.

   • mediumCDPVault._backingPerUnit: a repayment that lasts only for the call shrinks the supply a same-transaction redemption is paid against, and the lag netting makes the redraw freesrc/CDPVault.sol:708

     Q1/Q6/Q7. The transient tallies net out capital that ARRIVES inside a transaction (SECURED_THIS_TX_SLOT, MINTED_THIS_TX_SLOT: a same-call deposit or draw cannot inflate backing or dilute the fee base), and since 8756817 _clampLag leaves the lag where it was when debt leaves and returns inside one transaction.

     Nothing nets out imdUSD that is BURNED inside the transaction: _backingPerUnit reads the live stablecoin.totalSupply() as the denominator, and _securedCollateralValue reads the live totalDebt (less this transaction's mints) for the mat cap.

     A borrower whose collateral ratio is in [170%, 200%) has a secured term equal to its whole collateral (min(collateral, 2 x principal / price) binds on the collateral), so it can repay up to principal - collateral x price / 2 (15% of its principal at 170%) WITHOUT its term moving: the numerator of backing holds while the denominator falls by the repayment. In the same call it redeems (cash) at that inflated figure, then draws the repayment back.

     Debt, supply and every position end where they began; the redeemer was paid above the honest pro-rata figure; and because _clampLag now restores laggedDebt to the transaction's starting level on the redraw, the sequence costs the borrower nothing afterwards (before 8756817 the clamp left the lag depressed for a day, which at least cost the churner).

     The payout boost is supply / (supply - repaid), at most about 7% in the regime where it applies (backing below par, which needs underwater debt of at least 1.4x the churner's); it is a transfer from every other imdUSD holder to the redeemer, repeatable every transaction while the regime lasts, for gas plus temporarily holding imdUSD equal to the repayment.

     Reachable with the constants as committed at any wage: it needs no work supply, only a crash that leaves aggregate backing below par and a contract borrower in the 170-200% band holding spare imdUSD.

     NatSpec claims the code does not have: lines 229-234 ('capital which exists only for the length of the call can neither inflate the backing the guard measures nor dilute the supply the fee is measured against') and the cash() comment ('Paying pro-rata instead is exactly neutral on backing by construction'): the figure paid against is not the pro-rata one when a same-call burn precedes the redemption.

     Smallest fix: tally principal repaid in the transaction in a transient slot (as MINTED_THIS_TX_SLOT tallies draws) and add it back to supply and to the prior debt (live and lagged, via the _lagAtStart figures) in _backingPerUnit / _securedCollateralValue, so a repayment counts only once it has outlived the transaction, symmetric with how a draw is excluded.

     Alternatively measure backing against the lagged figures the transaction FIRST found (the _lagAtStart values) rather than the clamped ones, together with supply plus same-transaction burns.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/Proof_SameTxWipeInflatesRedemption.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 x ETH/USD 2000), NHI 0.85 (mat 170, candidates below 220%).

     A contract borrower locks 5,780 IMD and draws 1,000; another account locks 5,100 and draws 3,000 and hands the borrower its 3,000 imdUSD.

     Price falls to $0.294: borrower at 170% (secured term = its whole 5,780), the other at 50%.

     Both touched at the new price and warmed three days: backingPerUnit() = 0.79968e18.

     Expected: cash(500e18, 0, borrower) pays 500 x 0.7997 x (1 - 0.0050) / 0.294 = 1,292.0 IMD, whether or not the borrower repays and redraws inside the same call (debt and supply are identical before and after).

     Actual: cash alone pays 1,292,000,000,000,000,000,000 raw; wipe(150e18) + cash(500e18, 0, borrower) + draw(150e18) in ONE transaction pays 1,342,083,237,164,646,386,054 raw (+3.9%): inside the call supply fell from 4,000 to 3,850 while the collateral term held at 3,198, so backing read 3,198 / 3,850 = 0.8306 instead of 0.7997.

     The borrower ends at 4,437.9 IMD / 500.7 debt (257%), healthy; totalDebt and totalSupply are what they would have been after the honest cash. backingPerUnit() for everyone else afterwards is 0.7144e18 instead of the pro-rata-neutral 0.7997e18.

   • lowCDPVault._resecure: the term kept through an unreadable price is sized for the OLD principal, so an ungated wipe during a dead leg leaves an overstated secured term that pays redeemers above the re-prsrc/CDPVault.sol:865

     Q4, breaking the 8756817 fix (final panel oracle, low). The previous code zeroed a position's term when the price read zero, which shut or underpaid cash for a day; the fix keeps the term, bounded only by the position's collateral, 'dropped only when the position owes nothing'. But the term is min(collateral, 2 x principal / price): it is bounded by PRINCIPAL as well as by collateral, and wipe (ungated by design) lowers principal.

     A borrower who repays most of its principal while a leg is unreadable (a reverting Chainlink latestRoundData, a reverting sIMD convertToAssets) keeps a term sized for the principal it no longer has, up to its whole collateral, where the re-priced term would be about 2 x remaining principal / price.

     The error is in the overstating direction, and it persists: 'the next priced checkpoint of the position corrects it' is only that position's own next lock/free/draw/wipe, and nobody else can force one (the position is healthy after the repayment, so bite, cash-as-candidate and cover all refuse it).

     The moment the leg answers, every cash reads the overstated securedCollateral: when the collateral term binds (aggregate backing below par after a crash) _backingPerUnit reports par and a reserve-funded redemption takes the Treasury's IMD at par instead of pro-rata. The borrower itself can be the redeemer.

     The aggregate mat cap (1.7 x prior) bounds it, so it needs the collateral term to be the binding one, a reserve to pay from, and a revert-dead leg (a merely stale Chainlink answer still reads as a price in latestValue). Reachable with the constants as committed whenever those coincide; no governance, no price manipulation.

     NatSpec claims the code does not have: line 251 ('each term at the price in force when that position last changed') and _resecure's 'the next priced checkpoint of the position corrects it' (only the owner can produce one).

     Smallest fix: when price == 0 and debt != 0, keep min(before, collateral, before x newPrincipal / oldPrincipal) (pass the pre-change principal into _resecure from _reduceDebt, or pre-scale position.secured in _reduceDebt before calling it), so a repayment shrinks the kept term in proportion; both bounds then err toward understating, which is the direction the fix chose.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/Proof_DeadLegKeptTermOverstatesBacking.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85; the Treasury holds 500 IMD of reserve.

     REPAYER locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; UNDERWATER locks 1,700, draws 1,000 and hands the 1,000 imdUSD to REDEEMER.

     Price falls to $0.30 (60% and 51%); both positions touched at the new price and warmed: securedCollateral = 3,700e18, backingPerUnit() = 0.63e18.

     Chainlink latestRoundData() reverts (vm.mockCallRevert); REPAYER calls wipe(999e18) (ungated): principal 2.73e18 remains, securedCollateral is still 3,700e18.

     The leg recovers.

     Expected: REPAYER's term is min(2,000, 2 x 2.73 / 0.30) = 18.2 IMD, backingPerUnit() = 0.6623e18, and cash(100e18, 0, address(0)) pays 100 x 0.6623 x 0.995 / 0.30 = 209.73 IMD (measured by re-pricing the term with REPAYER.lock(1) first: 209,732,770,945,456,726,333 raw).

     Actual: backingPerUnit() = 1e18 and the same cash pays 316,666,666,666,666,666,666 raw ($95.0 of reserve IMD for 100 imdUSD against an honest $62.9), until REPAYER chooses to touch its position.

   • lowCDPVault._clampLag: the per-transaction netting leaves the cross-transaction churn in place; a healthy surplus holder's free-then-relock in adjacent blocks still lowers backingPerUnit for a day at evesrc/CDPVault.sol:895

     Q1, second half, reported because the task asks for it; the NatSpec at lines 889-890 states this residual as accepted ('Capital that leaves in one transaction and returns in another still re-warms: a decrease that lasted is a decrease'), so it is a documented design gap, not a regression.

     Measured: (a) Launch configuration (wage 0, no work supply): the DEBT side is harmless. A sole borrower's wipe(debtOf) in one transaction and draw(debtOf) in the next leaves all supply fresh (supply - fresh = 0, or only the other borrowers' debt), so _backingPerUnit falls back to the live figure and reads par; with a second healthy borrower present the lagged figure is that borrower's own backing, also par.

     The COLLATERAL side is not harmless: after a price fall that puts the collateral term in charge, a healthy position holding surplus frees it in one block and re-locks it in the next, and laggedSecured stays at the lower level for about a day (exponentially longer under activity), so every redeemer is paid against it and the churner, when it is the candidate, has its debt cancelled for less collateral per imdUSD.

     Cost: two transactions of gas, fresh feeds for the free, and the position must stay at or above mat after the free.

     (b) Wage nonzero with work supply E outstanding: a borrower holding share s of the debt wipes in one transaction and draws in the next; the lagged figure becomes (reserve + 1.7(1 - s)T) / (E + (1 - s)T), zero for a sole borrower with no reserve, so cash reverts ZeroAmount for everyone for a day and a redeemer with minGemOut is refused; repeatable per day for gas plus holding imdUSD equal to debtOf for one block.

     Who loses: redeemers (underpaid, or blocked) and the peg floor the cash() comment presents as min(1 - fee, backing).

     Smallest fix that keeps 'a decrease that lasted is a decrease': record per position the lagged amount its own decrease clamped and when the SAME position restores it within BACKING_WARMUP add min(increase, cooled) straight back to the lagged figure (bounded by the live one), the shape the final panel proposed; or accept and document the cost explicitly in docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md so the keeper watches laggedSecured.

     B calls free(3,900e18) in one transaction and lock(3,900e18) in the next block.

     Expected (nothing left the system across the two blocks): 1e18.

     Actual: laggedSecured = 36,100e18 against securedCollateral = 40,000e18 and backingPerUnit() = 0.9025e18; back to 1e18 only after a quiet day.

     The debt-side variant (ProbeTest.test_crossTxChurnSoleBorrower): sole borrower A with 44.9 imdUSD of fees in the Treasury and a 50-imdUSD second position wipes 1,094.9 and redraws it in the next transaction: laggedDebt 1,050e18 -> 50e18, laggedSecured 2,100e18 -> 100e18, backingPerUnit() stays 1e18 (the lagged denominator is 50, backed by B's 85), confirming the debt side is harmless at wage 0.

   • infocover: the new 'worth less than the recorded bad debt' sweep takes a drained borrower's re-locked collateral at once, with none of the mark and grace a bite gives, so a staged recapitalisation can be src/CDPVault.sol:557

     Q3.

     The gates hold as the fix states: a sweep needs collateral worth under about 1.2 imdUSD (_coverDust) or, on a position with realized bad debt, worth less than that recorded debt; since _recordedBadDebt is only ever written to debtOf at drain or min(previous, debtOf) at repayment it never exceeds the current debt, so a sweepable position is always below 100% collateral ratio and no healthy or recoverable-by-waiting position can be swept, and blocking cover costs collateral worth the whole recorded debt in a liquidatable position (verified by reading; no cheaper block found).

     The ungated branch sweeps only collateral below the one-wei seizure at the last price, worth about a wei of imdUSD even at a stale price bounded by the feed's epoch cap. One behavioural consequence worth stating: a bite of the same collateral needs bark, the full lull (six hours at NHI >= 0.85) and a bite; cover(owner, 1) by anyone sweeps it in the same block.

     A drained borrower who re-collateralises in two transactions (say $600 now, $600 next) loses the first tranche to the Treasury if anyone calls cover between them, where the liquidation path would have given it six hours. The borrower avoids it by locking at least the recorded debt in one call, and the collateral goes to the surplus account rather than a liquidator, so it is a griefing surface rather than a loss the protocol bears.

     If the grace is meant to apply, the smallest change is to require liquidationMarks[owner].marked with its grace elapsed for the 'worth less than recorded' branch (not for the dust branches); otherwise document in cover's NatSpec that re-locking onto a drained position below its recorded bad debt is an immediate donation to the surplus account.

     Price back to $1.

     A locks 60% of the record (175,018,246,575,342,465,400 raw, worth $175) as the first tranche of a two-step recapitalisation; the Treasury holds 10 imdUSD.

   • infoPosition struct NatSpec is garbled after 8756817: the inserted 1e18-scaled-seconds line left the old tail in placesrc/CDPVault.sol:43

     The fix inserted 'mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see draw),' between the two halves of the old sentence, which now reads 'Principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding, and mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see draw), its amount-weighted mint time.'

     Readers of the ABI docs and the struct will take mintedAt for whole seconds unless they reach the inner clause; everything that READS it (draw, _reduceDebt, _recentlyMinted) uses WAD-scaled seconds correctly, and the arithmetic is otherwise sound: principal-time is conserved through every draw/wipe pair to within (fresh + amount) / fresh wad-seconds, so a tranche can round a record to the present only when the fresh record is under about 25 wei.

     Fix: 'recentlyMinted is the principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW and still outstanding; mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-scaled seconds (see draw). Only redemption reads them.'

     Expected: one grammatical statement of the two fields' units.

     Actual: the clause 'its amount-weighted mint time' appears twice, once in whole-second wording, around the corrected one. test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_drawAndWipePairsDoNotKeepSeasonedDebtFresh confirms the code behaves per the inner clause.

   Findings

   1. Medium, _clampLag (CDPVault.sol:894). The per-transaction netting from 8756817 is bypassed by a wipe in one transaction and a redraw in the next, same block. Transaction 2 records the already-clamped zero as its starting level, so the lag re-warms from zero for a day. The borrower holds no debt and no imdUSD in between, so the cost is accrued fees (about 0.12 imdUSD per day per 1,000) and gas. With a wage set and work supply outstanding, backingPerUnit reads 0 and every cash reverts. At launch constants the collateral-side variant (free then relock after a price fall, 1.00 to 0.90) works the same way. Smallest fix: per-position cooling, so a position's own decrease returning within the warm-up is credited directly.

   2. Medium, _redemptionRate (CDPVault.sol:831). Supply minted this transaction is netted out of the fee base, but supply burned is not. A borrower holding 90% of supply wipes, redeems 9 of the remaining 100, and redraws: the base rate hits the 4.5% cap for one tenth of the honest cost, pinning the fee at 5% for every later redeemer until it decays. Fix: a transient burned-this-transaction slot added back into prior.

   3. Low, cover (CDPVault.sol:558). The new recorded-bad-debt sweep takes collateral a bite could still reach against any burn the caller chooses. A drained borrower who locks $160 against a $166.7 record before repaying loses all of it to cover(owner, 1), which retires one wei. The function NatSpec says the opposite. Fix: require the burn to be at least the swept value, or drop the clause.

   4. Low, _resecure (CDPVault.sol:865). With an unreadable price, a wipe keeps the whole previous term, no longer bounded by principal. After the leg returns and a fall puts backing below par, the reserve pays redeemers at par (95.5 IMD instead of 84.3 in the proof). Needs a reverting leg, which no unprivileged actor can cause. Fix: scale the kept term by the remaining principal in _reduceDebt.

   Answers where nothing is wrong

   • Q1 within one transaction: no sequence raises the lagged figures above what the transaction found, and a net decrease still clamps. The gap is only across transactions.
   • Q2: _earnOpen and _lagApplies read the same storage in the same call, so earn never mints with the lag off. One pending slot keeps the wage at zero through an oracle proposal, so totalEarned cannot change and no rights holder can block an application.
   • Q3: the ungated one-wei sweep moves only collateral worth about 1e-18 USD even at a price a million times too low; the dust threshold is at most 1.2% of debt, never a healthy position. Keeping cover off costs the record itself.
   • Q5: principal-time is conserved through draw, wipe, cash, bite and cover; the rounding is at 1e-18 seconds. A merged record ages out whole at exactly the principal-time an attacker would need anyway, so neither direction is exploitable.
   • Q6: liquidation payouts, the marker split, mark expiry, bad-debt records and the fee index all hold. chiOf is only written from chi, Parameters drips before a rate lands.
   • Q7: every value-moving action is gated except lock, wipe, debt-free free and the cover sweep, each safe. Ratios saturate, every payout rounds against the recipient, and the per-1e18-raw convention is consistent through SharePriceFeed, Treasury and the vault.

   • medium_clampLag: the per-transaction netting (8756817) is bypassed by a wipe in one transaction and a redraw in the next; a dominant borrower drives backingPerUnit to zero for a day at the cost of gas and asrc/CDPVault.sol:894

     Q1. _clampLag lowers laggedDebt / laggedSecured to the live figure the moment either falls, and _lagAtStart only nets the fall against what the SAME transaction first found. A borrower who calls wipe(debtOf) in one transaction and draw(the same principal) in the next transaction of the same block sees transaction 2 record the already-clamped 0 as its starting level, so the redraw warms from zero over BACKING_WARMUP (exponentially longer under activity).

     Nothing left the system for even one second: between the two transactions the borrower holds no debt and no imdUSD, so there is no price or liquidation exposure; draw only needs fresh, agreeing feeds and health, which the position already had.

     Cost: the stability fee accrued since the last touch (about 0.12 imdUSD per day on 1,000 of debt) plus two transactions' gas.

     Effect, wage nonzero with work-minted supply E outstanding (the state the lag exists for): _backingPerUnit reads min(live, lagged) with lagged = (reserve + secured(lagged)) / (supply - fresh); for the only borrower lagDebt = lagSecured = 0, so lagged = reserve / E = 0 with an empty reserve, cash reverts ZeroAmount for every redeemer, and a redeemer with minGemOut set is refused; recovery is 0.24 after one quiet hour and the churn is repeatable every block.

     With the constants as committed (wage 0, no work supply) the debt side cancels (supply <= fresh skips the lagged figure), but the collateral side still binds after a price fall: the final panel's variant B (free-and-relock removing a healthy borrower's surplus from laggedSecured, 1.00 -> 0.90) works identically across two transactions.

     The fix for the panel's medium #1 left this gap; the NatSpec at 884-890 ("a decrease that lasted is a decrease") and 703-705 ("honest redemptions are not underpaid") claim a property the code does not have for a decrease that lasted zero seconds.

     Reachable: with the committed constants for the collateral-side variant; with a governed wage (48 h) for the zero-backing variant.

     Smallest fix that keeps decreases counting at once for everyone else: record per position the lagged amounts its own decrease clamped (coolingDebt, coolingSecured, cooledAt in the Position struct); when the same position's principal or term rises again within BACKING_WARMUP of cooledAt, add min(increase, cooling) directly to laggedDebt / laggedSecured (bounded by the live figures) instead of routing it through _approach.

     Netting per block instead of per transaction is not enough: the same two calls one block apart cost 12 seconds of zero exposure.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/LagChurnAcrossTransactions.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 x Chainlink 2000), NHI 0.85, wage 0.01 applied through Parameters after the 48 h timelock.

     BORROWER locks 2,000 IMD and draws 1,000 imdUSD; a day later WORKER earns 250 imdUSD (the ceiling) and hands 10 to the borrower for fees; a day later backingPerUnit() == 1e18.

     BORROWER calls wipe(debtOf) [tx 1] then draw(1,000e18) [tx 2, same block].

     Position afterwards: 2,000 collateral, 1,000 principal, cost owed - 1,000 < 0.3 imdUSD.

     Expected: backingPerUnit() == 1e18 and cash(10e18, 0, BORROWER) pays about 9.91 IMD.

     Actual: laggedDebt == 0, laggedSecured == 0, backingPerUnit() == 0 ('0 != 1000000000000000000'), cash reverts ZeroAmount().

   • medium_redemptionRate nets supply minted this transaction out of the fee base but not supply burned, so a dominant borrower pins the redemption fee at the cap for a fraction of the cost finding fcd5b261 setsrc/CDPVault.sol:831

     Q6, the fee base. The increase a burn adds to redemptionBaseRate is amount / prior / divisor with prior = totalSupply() - (principal and work minted this transaction). A burn earlier in the same transaction lowers totalSupply() and is not added back, so prior is the post-burn supply, not "the supply that existed before this transaction" as the NatSpec at 819 states.

     A borrower holding share s of the supply as its own debt wipes it (burning its imdUSD), redeems a small amount against the shrunken supply, and draws the principal back, in one transaction (or in three adjacent ones): the base rate is set as if the burn were 1/(1-s) times larger.

     Reaching the 4.5% cap honestly costs a burn of 9% of supply at the 5% fee (0.45% of supply lost to the fee); with s = 90% it costs 0.9% of supply at the same fee, ten times less, and the pinned base decays with a twelve-hour half-life, so the pump is repeated twice a day. The redemption can be reserve-funded (freshCancelled == 0, so the base stands whole) or against any seasoned third-party position; the borrower's own position is unchanged afterwards.

     Victims: every later redeemer pays up to 500 bps instead of 50 for the next half-life or two, and the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) the cash() comment promises sits at 0.95 on demand. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance, no work issuance; needs a borrower whose debt is a large share of supply (LINE is $1M at launch).

     Smallest fix: track burns in a transient slot (BURNED_THIS_TX_SLOT, added in _payDebt, cover's burn and cash's burn) and measure prior = supply + burned - minted, mirroring the existing minted netting.

     test/scratch/RedemptionFeeBaseBurn.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault at $1, launch constants (divisor 2, wage 0).

     A contract borrower locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives the borrower 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded; supply 1,000, redemptionBaseRate 0, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) quotes 95 (floor 50 + 9/1000/2 = 45).

     The borrower calls wipe(900e18), cash(9e18, 0, address(0)), draw(900e18) in one transaction.

     Expected: redemptionBaseRate == 0.0045e18 (45 bps, the increase for a 9-of-1,000 burn).

     Actual: 0.045e18, the cap ('45000000000000000 > 4500000000000001'); redemptionFeeBps(0) reads 500 for everyone; the borrower's position is 2,000 / 900 again and the pump cost 0.45 imdUSD of fee.

   • lowcover's recorded-bad-debt sweep (8756817) takes collateral a bite could still reach against a caller-chosen burn: cover(owner, 1) moves a borrower's whole re-lock to the Treasury and retires one weisrc/CDPVault.sol:558

     Q3. The new second clause sweeps, on a position with _recordedBadDebt != 0, any collateral worth less than that record at the fresh price, and then retires amount of debt with the Treasury's imdUSD. amount is only required to be nonzero and at most the debt.

     The record is at most debtOf and never falls when collateral is added, so a drained borrower who starts rebuilding by locking collateral first (worth less than the record) and repaying in a later transaction loses the whole re-lock to anyone's cover(owner, 1): the Treasury receives the collateral, the borrower's debt falls by one wei, and nothing is credited against the record. A bite of that collateral would have retired collateral / 1.2 of debt; cover retires one wei.

     The function NatSpec at 531-532 says cover "reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)", which this clause contradicts: $160 against a $166.7 record is reachable by a bite of 133 imdUSD.

     The caller does not profit (the collateral goes to the surplus account), so this is a loss to a rebuilding borrower rather than theft, and the operator's own keeper, which calls cover to retire realized bad debt, triggers it in the ordinary course. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix that keeps the sweep: in the gated branch require amount >= Math.min(Math.mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18), position.debt + _stabilityFees[owner]), so a sweep is a one-for-one liquidation funded by the surplus (the Treasury waits for imdUSD exactly as a bite waits for a liquidator); or drop the recorded-bad-debt clause and keep the NatSpec's rule. Correct 531-532 either way.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/CoverSweepsReachableCollateral.t.sol (fails on this code).

     18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85.

     BORROWER locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; KEEPER locks 20,000, draws 5,000 and funds the Treasury with 500 imdUSD.

     Price to $0.50; bark; +6 h; bite(BORROWER, 2000e18 * 0.5e18 / 1.2e18) drains it (collateral 0, totalBadDebt about 166.7e18).

     Price back to $1.

     BORROWER calls lock(160e18) (worth $160 < the record, far above dust; a bite of 133 imdUSD would seize 159.6 of it).

     ANYONE calls cover(BORROWER, 1).

     Expected: revert NoRealizedBadDebt (NatSpec), or a burn of at least the swept value.

     Actual: the call succeeds, positions(BORROWER).collateral == 0, the Treasury's IMD balance rises by exactly 160e18, and the borrower's debt falls by 1 wei ('1 < 160000000000000000000').

   • low_resecure with an unreadable price keeps a position's whole previous term through an ungated wipe, so securedCollateral carries a term no longer bounded by 2 x principal / price until the position is src/CDPVault.sol:865

     Q4.

     The 8756817 change keeps min(before, collateral) when _priceOrZero() reads 0 (a reverting ETH/USD aggregator or share-vault leg; a merely stale answer still prices). lock keeping before is conservative (collateral only rose), but wipe is ungated too and lowers the principal while the term stays: a position with 1,000 collateral and 500 principal (term 1,000 at $1) that repays 499 during the outage keeps a term of 1,000 where a priced checkpoint gives min(1,000, 2 x 1 / price) = about 2.

     The securedCollateral NatSpec at 250 ("Sum over positions of min(collateral, 2 x principal / price)") no longer holds. The overstated term persists after the leg recovers and feeds both the live and the lagged side of _backingPerUnit (laggedSecured never fell).

     It is harmless while the aggregate cap prior x mat binds, and matters exactly when honest backing is below par (a price fall after the outage): the reserve-funded part of cash then pays at par instead of at backing, the position-funded part being stopped by RedemptionWorsensRatio.

     Any borrower who repays during an outage creates the overstatement unwittingly; the beneficiary is whoever redeems against the reserve before the position is touched; the loss is the Treasury's reserve (the difference between par and honest backing on every unit redeemed).

     Preconditions: a reverting price leg (not reachable by an unprivileged actor), then a fall that puts backing below par, then a reserve.

     Smallest fix: in _reduceDebt, when the price is unreadable, scale the kept term by the remaining principal (before * debtAfter / debtBefore, still capped at collateral) instead of keeping it whole; lock / lockIMD may keep before as they do now.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/DeadLegWipeOverstatesSecured.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault at $1, A and B each lock 1,000 and draw 500, Treasury holds 100 IMD, warm 3 days: securedCollateral == 2,000e18. vm.mockCallRevert on Chainlink latestRoundData; A calls wipe(499e18); mock cleared.

     Price to $0.40. backingPerUnit() reads 1e18 (A's term still 1,000: held 2,000 x 0.4 = 800 vs cap 501 x 1.7).

     A calls lock(1e18), re-pricing its term to about 6: backingPerUnit() == 0.8826e18.

     Expected: the unpriced figure never exceeds the next priced one ('1000000000000000000 > 882643474017610953').

     Second test: before the touch REDEEMER calls cash(40e18, 0, B): actual payout 95.5e18 IMD, all from the reserve; honest payout at backing 0.883 and the 449 bps fee is about 84.3e18 ('95500000000000000000 > 89000000000000000000').

   • infoNatSpec claims the code does not have after 8756817: _clampLag 'a decrease that lasted', _redemptionRate 'supply that existed before this transaction', cover 'reverts on collateral a bite could still src/CDPVault.sol:890

     Five statements in CDPVault describe properties the committed code does not have; each is the documentation half of a finding above. (1) 884-890, _clampLag: "Capital that leaves in one transaction and returns in another still re-warms: a decrease that lasted is a decrease" - a wipe and a redraw in adjacent transactions of one block is a decrease that lasted zero seconds and is treated as lasting (finding 1).

     (2) 819, _redemptionRate: "the burned fraction of the supply that existed before this transaction" - supply burned in the transaction is not added back (finding 2). (3) 531-532, cover: "Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)" - the recorded-bad-debt clause at 558 sweeps bite-reachable collateral (finding 3).

     (4) 250-251, securedCollateral: "Sum over positions of min(collateral, SECURED_COLLATERAL_MULTIPLE x principal / price)" - after an unpriced wipe a term is min(before, collateral) with no principal bound (finding 4).

     (5) 703-705, _backingPerUnit: "honest redemptions are not underpaid, because new debt and the imdUSD minted against it are excluded together" - after a cross-transaction churn honest redemptions are paid against a figure below the honest backing, to zero (finding 1); the cash comment at 659-660, "the peg floor is min(1 - fee, backing)", likewise.

     Also outside src/: test/helpers/OpenWorkVault.sol:13 cites test/EarnGate.t.sol, which does not exist in the tree (the gate tests live in test/LaggedBacking.t.sol).

     Fix: reword each to the behaviour the code has, or fix the code and leave the text.

     whole finding

     Each claim is refuted by the reproduction of the finding it documents: test/scratch/LagChurnAcrossTransactions.t.sol (claims 1 and 5), test/scratch/RedemptionFeeBaseBurn.t.sol (claim 2), test/scratch/CoverSweepsReachableCollateral.t.sol (claim 3), test/scratch/DeadLegWipeOverstatesSecured.t.sol (claim 4). ls test/EarnGate.t.sol reports no such file.

   • info_redemptionReserveBacking's second return value (the rounded-up value leaving the reserve) is computed and never read: the only caller passes amount 0src/CDPVault.sol:225

     The virtual _redemptionReserveBacking(amount, price) returns (reserve backing, ceil(amount x price / 1e18)); ParameterizedVault overrides it at 172-183 with the same shape. The only call is _backingPerUnit at 710, _redemptionReserveBacking(0, price), which discards the second value and always passes a zero amount. The second computation is a remnant of the refused-redemption guard that the pro-rata payout replaced (the cash comment at 636-648 describes the replacement).

     No behaviour depends on it; it costs a mulDiv per redemption and makes the ParameterizedVault NatSpec at 164-171 ("the IMD held and the IMD leaving") describe a comparison that no longer happens.

     Fix: drop the parameter and the second return, or document it as unused.

     grep -n '_redemptionReserveBacking' src/ shows the definition (225), the override (172) and one call site (710) with a literal 0 as the first argument and (uint256 reserve,) as the destructuring; no other reader exists.

   #	Severity	Where	What
   1	medium	src/CDPVault.sol:558 cover	The new bad-debt sweep takes a re-collateralised borrower's whole collateral for whatever amount the caller names, down to one wei of debt. It skips mark, grace and the 120% seizure formula. Proof attached.
   2	low	src/CDPVault.sol:865 _resecure	With the price reading zero, a wipe keeps the pre-wipe term, so the position secures up to twice its old principal until it is next touched. In a collateral-bound system backingPerUnit reads par where the honest figure is 0.80. Proof attached.
   3	info	src/CDPVault.sol:660 cash comment	The cross-transaction churn is the committed design, but the comment's peg floor is not what redeemers are paid for the day after one. Numbers below.
   4	info	src/CDPVault.sol:844 _secured NatSpec	"an unpriced feed counts the position for nothing" describes the behaviour commit 8756817 removed.

   Finding 1 in detail. After a drain, the borrower re-locks collateral worth twice the recorded bad debt and is healthy at 200%. The market falls 55%, so the collateral is worth 0.9 of the record. Anyone calls cover(owner, 1). The Treasury receives 583 IMD worth 262.5 imdUSD and the borrower's debt falls by one wei. Every other underwater position would get a mark, up to six hours of grace, and a bite that seizes 1.2 times the debt it repays. The same strip hits a borrower who re-collateralises in two steps. The function NatSpec at lines 531 to 533 says cover reverts on collateral a bite could reach, which this collateral is. Smallest fix: make the sweep a repayment in kind, with the Treasury burning imdUSD equal to the swept value on top of amount. Under that patch the proof passes and the seven relevant suites stay green.

   Finding 2 in detail. Needs a reverting Chainlink or share-vault leg, a repayment during it, and a system where the collateral side of the backing cap binds. The reserve then pays redeemers at par against an honest 0.80. Work minting cannot use it, since earnLine reads no collateral. Fix: scale the kept term by the remaining principal when no price is readable. One existing regression test pins exact keeping and would need its assertion loosened.

   Answers to the seven questions

   1. Lag and netting. Within one transaction nothing can raise the lagged figures above where the transaction found them: _clampLag caps at the start-of-transaction value and _advanceLag moves only on its first call. Capital that really leaves still clamps at once if the transaction ends lower. Across transactions the churn costs two adjacent blocks and the churner's own imdUSD, and blocks a lot: with work supply outstanding, a borrower holding 95% of the debt took backingPerUnit from 1.00 to 0.283, a third party's cash(10) paid 2.8 IMD instead of 9.94, and earnLine fell from 262.5 to 12.5. Recovery is 0.45 after a quiet hour and par after a quiet day. The committed NatSpec accepts this.
   2. Earn gate. _earnOpen and _lagApplies read the same storage, so earn never mints with the lag off. At wage zero earn reverts, so totalEarned cannot move during a pending oracle replacement and a rights holder cannot block it. Nothing wrong.
   3. Cover. The ungated sweep below the one-wei seizure refuses a debt-free position and takes at most 13,822 raw sIMD units, worth about 1.2e-18 dollars. The dust path sweeps up to the seizure for one imdUSD, about 1.38e22 raw at the launch price. A drained borrower can no longer block cover cheaply: it must hold collateral worth at least the record, which a bite then takes at a 20% pe

   • mediumcover's bad-debt sweep takes a re-collateralised borrower's whole collateral for any `amount`, as little as one wei of debt, skipping mark, grace and the 120% seizure formulasrc/CDPVault.sol:558

     Q3. The new branch of cover (commit 8756817) sweeps, on a position with _recordedBadDebt != 0, any collateral worth less than that record (Math.mulDiv(position.collateral, price, 1e18) < recorded). The sweep zeroes position.collateral, sends all of it to the Treasury (gem.safeTransfer(payer, dust)), and the position's debt is then reduced only by the caller-chosen amount burned from the Treasury's imdUSD.

     Nothing credits the swept collateral's value against the debt it stood behind, and the branch does not require amount to retire the debt.

     Because _recordedBadDebt is never erased by adding collateral (NatSpec on totalBadDebt: a drained borrower 'who re-collateralises and keeps a healthy loan open' is an accepted state), every borrower who was once drained and re-collateralised carries this exposure for the life of the loan: the moment the market puts their collateral below the old record (any fall of about 45% from a 200% re-collateralisation, or simply re-locking in two steps), anyone may call cover(owner, 1) and strip them.

     Every other underwater position gets bark, the NHI grace (up to six hours) and a bite that seizes exactly 1.2x the debt it repays; this path seizes everything for one wei. The caller gains nothing directly (collateral goes to the surplus account), so it is griefing or a mis-sized honest cover, but the loss to the borrower is the full collateral value, and the Treasury's own imdUSD is still owed the whole record afterwards.

     Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance. It also contradicts the function NatSpec (lines 531-533): 'Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)'.

     Smallest fix: in the sweep branch, credit the swept value: cancel min(debt, mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18)) of the position's debt through _reduceDebt (fees first, record and totals move together) before burning amount, so the sweep is a repayment in kind at price; or restrict the recorded != 0 sweep to the case amount >= debtOf(owner) - value so a cover that strips also closes the position, and otherwise leave the collateral to the liquidation path.

     Either way reword lines 531-533.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/CoverSweepStrips.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD priced at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 x Chainlink 2000), NHI 0.85 (mat 170, lull 6 h).

     BORROWER locks 1,700 and draws 1,000 (exactly mat); KEEPER locks 20,000 and draws 5,000.

     Price to $0.50; bark(BORROWER); +6 h; bite(BORROWER, floor(1700 x 0.5 / 1.2) = 708.33) drains it: collateral 0, recorded bad debt R = 291.7 imdUSD.

     Price back to $1; the Treasury holds 10 imdUSD.

     BORROWER re-locks 2R = 583.4 IMD (ratio 200%, healthy); cover(BORROWER, 1) reverts NoRealizedBadDebt as expected.

     Price to $0.45: collateral worth 262.5 < R.

     STRANGER calls cover(BORROWER, 1).

     EXPECTED: refused (the collateral is reachable by a bite at 1.2x), or collateral leaves only against debt retired at no worse than the bite formula.

     ACTUAL: positions(BORROWER).collateral == 0, 583.4 IMD ($262.5) in the Treasury, debtOf(BORROWER) fell by exactly 1 wei: '262527369863013698100 > 2'.

     whole proof

   • low_resecure keeps the pre-wipe secured term when the price reads zero, so a repayment made while the ETH/USD or share leg is down leaves the position securing up to 2x its OLD principal until it is toucsrc/CDPVault.sol:865

     Q4. The oracle-panel fix (8756817) stopped a dead leg from zeroing a position's term, by keeping before (capped at the collateral) when _priceOrZero() is 0. wipe is ungated and calls _reduceDebt -> _resecure(position, _priceOrZero()), so a repayment made during the outage lowers position.debt while the term stays at min(before, collateral), which for a position at or above 200% is 2 x the OLD principal / price.

     After the leg recovers nothing re-prices the term until that borrower's own next lock/free/draw/wipe or a redemption or bite against them: the borrower has every reason not to touch it. securedCollateral is therefore overstated by up to the whole repaid principal's bound.

     The aggregate cap in _securedCollateralValue (mat x prior debt less bad debt) hides this in a one-position vault, but whenever the collateral side binds (other positions underwater, work-minted or redeemed supply outstanding) the overstatement flows straight into _backingPerUnit, which cash pays against: the reserve pays redeemers at (or toward) par while the honest backing is far lower, at every other holder's expense, and the lagged copy does not help because securedCollateral never fell so _clampLag had nothing to clamp.

     Work minting cannot use it (earnLine reads no collateral). Preconditions are real but exogenous: a reverting Chainlink ETH/USD round or a reverting sIMD convertToAssets (both read as 0 by design), a borrower who repays during it, and a system where collateral binds; a merely stale Chainlink answer still prices and does not trigger it. The _secured NatSpec at line 844 ('an unpriced feed counts the position for nothing') describes the behaviour the fix removed.

     Smallest fix that keeps the oracle-panel fix: when price == 0 and the principal fell, scale the kept term by the principal ratio, current = min(before, collateral, mulDiv(before, position.debt, oldDebt)) (pass the previous principal from _reduceDebt); the bound 2 x principal / price is linear in principal, so this is exact when the bound was binding and only tightens when the collateral was. Then reword line 844.

     Validated: with that patch the proof passes and the Cover, LaggedBacking, BadDebtSweep, MarkerBadDebt, Redemption, RedemptionEconomics and Liquidation suites stay green except test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_aDeadLegNeitherZeroesTheSecuredTermNorTheLag, which pins the term as kept to the wei after a 1 imdUSD wipe and would assert 'scaled by the principal ratio' instead (2098.73e18 against 2100e18 there).

     whole finding

     test/scratch/DeadLegOverstates.t.sol (fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD, NHI 0.85, Chainlink etched at 2000e8.

     A locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; B locks 2,000 and draws 1,000.

     Price falls to $0.40 (B at 80%, underwater); both terms re-priced and the lag warmed over four quiet days: secured = 2,000 + 2,000 IMD, value 1,600 against supply 2,000, backingPerUnit() == 0.80e18 (collateral-bound). vm.mockCallRevert on the aggregator's latestRoundData; A wipes 999 imdUSD (ungated; fees first, so A's remaining debt is about 1.5 principal).

     Clear the mock.

     EXPECTED: A secures min(2,000, 2 x 1.5 / 0.4 = 7.4) IMD, value (7.4 + 2,000) x 0.4 = 803 against supply 1,001, backingPerUnit about 0.80e18.

     ACTUAL: securedCollateral still 4,000e18, value min(1,600, 1.7 x 1,001) = 1,600, backingPerUnit() == 1e18: '1000000000000000000 > 811781242459839153'.

     whole proof

   • infoThe per-transaction netting closes only the atomic churn: a borrower's wipe in one transaction and draw in the next still clamps laggedDebt and laggedSecured at once, so with work supply outstanding asrc/CDPVault.sol:660

     Q1, second half. _clampLag (lines 891-896) nets a decrease only against the lagged figures the SAME transaction first found; the NatSpec at 889-890 states that a decrease across transactions still counts at once, so this is the committed design, reported here because the question asks what it costs and blocks and because the cash comment still presents the paid figure as the honest backing.

     Cost to the churner: two transactions in adjacent blocks, the imdUSD to wipe its own debt (which it minted) plus accrued fees, and a health check at fresh, agreeing feeds on the redraw; nothing is at risk and it is repeatable every block.

     What it blocks: with work-minted supply E outstanding and the churner holding share s of the debt D, the lagged backing becomes (R + 1.7 (1 - s) D) / ((1 - s) D + E) for about a day (exponentially longer under activity), so every cash is paid against it; at s = 1 and R = 0 it is 0 and every cash reverts ZeroAmount.

     A redeemer with minGemOut is refused instead; one without is underpaid, and the candidate redeemed against has its debt cancelled for less collateral, which is the churner's incentive when it is itself a candidate (ratio below mat + gap). earnLine falls with it (262.5 -> 12.5 in the reproduction), so the churner also shuts the work channel for everyone for a day.

     At launch (wage 0, E = 0) the debt side cancels and only the collateral side can bind, which needs positions below 200%. The comment at 659-661 ('the peg floor is min(1 - fee, backing)') and 650-651 ('Paying pro-rata instead is exactly neutral on backing by construction') hold for the honest backing, not for the clamped figure actually paid.

     If this is to stay accepted, state it where the peg floor is claimed; otherwise the per-position cooling record the vault panel proposed (credit a position's own return of capital within BACKING_WARMUP of its own decrease directly to the lag) closes the cross-transaction variant too.

   • info_secured NatSpec says 'an unpriced feed counts the position for nothing'; since 8756817 _resecure keeps the previous term when the price reads zerosrc/CDPVault.sol:844

     NatSpec claim the code does not have. _secured still returns 0 for price == 0, but its only caller _resecure (lines 864-866) no longer calls it in that case: it writes position.debt == 0 ? 0 : min(before, collateral), so an unpriced feed counts the position for its last term, not for nothing.

     The securedCollateral NatSpec at 250-251 ('Sum over positions of min(collateral, SECURED_COLLATERAL_MULTIPLE x principal / price) ... each term at the price in force when that position last changed') is likewise no longer exact after a zero-price change, which is the mechanism of the low above.

     Fix: 'an unpriced feed leaves the position's last term in place (see _resecure), capped at its collateral and dropped when it owes nothing'.

     Read: src/CDPVault.sol:844 states the zero-price behaviour; src/CDPVault.sol:864-866 implements the opposite. test/scratch/DeadLegOverstates.t.sol shows securedCollateral staying at 4,000e18 after a zero-price wipe (expected per the comment: A's 2,000e18 term counted for nothing, i.e. 2,000e18).

   Findings

   #	Severity	Where	Finding
   1	high	src/CDPVault.sol:892 _clampLag / _lagAtStart	The 8756817 netting is per transaction against the aggregate, not per position. A rights holder cancels an honest borrower's warm debt (cash against any candidate under 220%, bite, or cover spending the Treasury's imdUSD at no cost) and draws the same principal in the same transaction: laggedDebt stays at 1000, backedDebt() counts the zero-second debt in full, earn(250) succeeds, wipe and free leave 250 unbacked imdUSD (backing 0.0025). The whole round trip fits in one transaction because _debtAtTransactionStart records the honest borrower's debt as the start level. D1 is open again. Proof: test/scratch/NettingTransfersWarmth.t.sol (3 tests).
   2	medium	src/CDPVault.sol:894 _clampLag	The netting lives in transient storage, so a wipe as transaction N and a redraw as N+1 of the same block clamps the lag for gas with zero seconds of exposure. Sole borrower with work supply: backing 1.0 to 0, cash reverts ZeroAmount for a day. Launch variant (wage 0, after a price fall): free-then-relock 1.00 to 0.90. Proof: test/scratch/LagChurnAcrossTransactions.t.sol.
   3	low	src/CDPVault.sol:865 _resecure	The "term kept" branch keeps min(before, collateral) through an ungated wipe made while ETH/USD is unreadable, although principal fell. After recovery securedCollateral reads 3700 where a live price gives 1706, backingPerUnit reads par where honest is 0.68, and a 100 imdUSD cash takes 160.3 IMD from the candidate instead of 109.2, until the wiper touches its own position. Fix: scale the kept term by principalAfter/principalBefore. Proof: test/scratch/DeadLegKeepsSecuredTerm.t.sol.
   4	info	src/CDPVault.sol:43	Position struct NatSpec has a dangling duplicate clause and never says mintedAt is not a Unix timestamp.

   Smallest fix for 1 and 2 together: credit back to the lag only what the same position removed within BACKING_WARMUP (per-position cooling record in storage), and clamp every other decrease step by step as before. Netting per block closes only the same-block form of 2.

   Answers to the numbered questions

   1. Lag. Within one transaction nothing can raise the lagged figures above the level the first clamp recorded, since every clamp writes min(live, start). The gap is the opposite one: aggregate netting keeps the lag from falling when capital really leaves and other capital arrives (finding 1). Across transactions the decrease counts at once even for zero seconds (finding 2): cost is one extra transaction, it blocks every cash and the work ceiling for about a day, and the churner gains only if someone redeems against it at the depressed figure.
   2. Earn gate. _earnOpen and _lagApplies read the same parameters.wage() with no state change between them, so no state mints with the lag off in the deployed vault. A rights holder cannot block an oracle replacement: the proposal and its application both require wage 0, earn is refused at wage 0, and the single Governed slot prevents a wage change while the proposal is pending. The D1 round trip across adjacent transactions is closed on its own but reopens through finding 1.
   3. Cover. The ungated sweep takes collateral worth under 1.2e-18 USD at the last price; no stale price the feed bounds admit makes that reachable by a bite. The gated branches sweep only collateral worth less than 1.2% of debt (or $1.20) or less than the recorded bad debt, which is always underwater; the borrower loses nothing a bite would not take, and keeping cover off now costs at least the bad debt in collateral, most of which a bite converts into repayment.

   • highCDPVault._clampLag nets the lag per transaction against aggregate figures, so cancelling another borrower's warm debt (cash, bite or cover) and drawing the same amount in the same transaction transfersrc/CDPVault.sol:892

     Q1 (the lag's per-transaction netting), breaking the newest fix. 8756817 replaced the step-by-step clamp with a clamp against the lagged figures the transaction FIRST found: laggedDebt = min(totalDebt, startDebt) and laggedSecured = min(securedCollateral, startSecured) where start* is the transient record written at the first _clampLag of the transaction.

     The record is of the AGGREGATE, not of the position that moved, so any transaction in which totalDebt (or securedCollateral) ends where it began leaves the lag untouched whoever's capital left and whoever's arrived. A rights holder exploits it in the normal operating state (wage nonzero, the state the lag exists for): in one transaction (a contract) it (1) cancels an honest borrower's warm principal and (2) draws the same principal on its own position.

     Three ungated ways to do (1): cash(amount, 0, candidate) against any position inside the redeemable band (CR < mat + gap = 220%), paying only the redemption fee (0.5%-5%) and receiving the candidate's collateral at par less the fee; bite against a marked underwater position (paid the 18% bonus for it); or cover(drained, amount), which cancels a drained position's principal with the TREASURY's imdUSD at no cost to the caller and also lowers totalBadDebt, which backedDebt subtracts.

     After the swap totalDebt and laggedDebt are both where they were, so the attacker's zero-second principal reads as fully warm: in the next transaction backedDebt() = min(totalDebt, debtAtTxStart, laggedNow) - bad counts it in full, earnLine() = 25% of it, and earn mints against it; a third transaction wipes and frees.

     Worse, the whole round trip fits in ONE transaction: ParameterizedVault._debtChanged records the total BEFORE the first change of the transaction, which is the honest borrower's 1,000 cancelled by the cash, so _debtAtTransactionStart() is 1,000 and the same-transaction ceiling check (finding 4d30331c) passes as well: cash, lock, draw, earn, wipe, free in one call, with nothing at risk for a single block and the collateral and the imdUSD both borrowable for the length of the call.

     This is exactly D1's borrow / earn / unwind round trip (launch audit 2026-10-05, vault panel, medium) that the lag closed: before 8756817 the clamp at the cancellation dropped laggedDebt to 0 and the redraw stayed fresh (test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_withWorkMintingOnAdjacentTransactionDebtAuthorisesNoWork pins the cross-transaction case; nothing pins the same-transaction swap).

     The same swap lifts the REDEMPTION half: _backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and min(prior, lagDebt), both left where they were by a swap in which the attacker's fresh collateral replaces the cancelled position's term, so fresh capital reads as warm backing for a reserve redemption at par in the next transaction.

     Who loses: every imdUSD holder (work-minted supply with nothing behind it; backing 0.0025 in the proof) and, for the redemption half, the remaining holders paid below their share. Reachable with the constants as committed once governance has set a wage (48-hour proposal; the compute channel is the stated purpose of the lag); at WAGE_WAD 0 earn is refused and only the redemption half is reachable.

     NatSpec claims the code does not have: lines 884-890 ('capital that leaves and comes back inside one transaction ... leaves the lag where it was' is true, but the clamp is also left where it was when DIFFERENT capital comes in) and lines 302-304 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting').

     Smallest fix: net per POSITION, not per transaction. Record, per position, the amount by which its own decrease lowered the lagged figures in this transaction (transient, keyed by the position), and on the same position's later increase within the transaction restore min(increase, its own recorded decrease); clamp every other change step by step as before (laggedDebt = min(laggedDebt, totalDebt) after ea

     HONEST locks 2,000 IMD, draws 1,000 imdUSD (200%: inside the redeemable band) and sells the 1,000 imdUSD to the attacker; three days pass (laggedNow() debt == 1,000).

     The attacker contract, holding 1,700 IMD and 250 rights, calls in ONE transaction cash(1,000e18, 0, HONEST) then lock(1,700e18) then draw(1,000e18).

     One block later: expected laggedNow() debt about 0.05 and earnLine() < 1 imdUSD, earn(250e18) reverts WorkCeilingReached; actual laggedDebt 1,000.00005, earnLine 250.00001, earn(250e18) succeeds.

     The attacker then wipes 1,000 and frees 1,700: totalEarned 250e18 with the attacker's debt 0, totalDebt 0.36 (the honest borrower's fee residue) and backingPerUnit() 0.0025e18.

     Cost: a 5% redemption fee on 1,000 (less when the swap is split into smaller tranches as the fee decays), or nothing via cover.

     Third test (fails on this code): the same state, then attacker.roundTrip(1,000e18, HONEST, 1,700e18, 1,000e18, 250e18), which calls cash, lock, draw, earn, wipe and free in ONE transaction.

     Expected: earn reverts WorkCeilingReached inside the call and totalEarned() stays 0.

     Actual: the call succeeds, totalEarned() == 250e18 and the attacker's debt is 0.

   • mediumCDPVault._clampLag: the per-transaction netting does not reach two consecutive transactions of one block, so a borrower's wipe-then-redraw (or free-then-relock) still clamps the lag for gas and drivessrc/CDPVault.sol:894

     Q1 (across transactions a decrease counts at once), the gap the 8756817 fix for the panel's medium (CDPVault._clampLag, 'a borrower's atomic repay-and-redraw') leaves open.

     The netting lives in transient storage, which the EVM clears at the end of each transaction, so 'a decrease that lasted' (NatSpec lines 889-890) includes a decrease that lasted zero seconds: the same sender's wipe as transaction N and draw as transaction N+1 of the same block (nonce n, n+1 from one key, or a bundle) clamp laggedDebt and laggedSecured to the post-wipe level at once, and they only warm back over about a day (exponentially slower under activity, lines 298-304).

     Nothing elapses between the two transactions: no stability fee, no price exposure, no attestation purchase, and the borrower already holds the imdUSD it drew. Effect, exactly the panel's: with work-minted supply E outstanding, a borrower above 1 - E/(0.7 D) of the debt (the sole borrower in the proof) takes the lagged backing to zero, cash reverts ZeroAmount for everyone and the work ceiling reads 0 until the lag re-warms; repeated each block for gas it never does.

     At launch (wage 0, E = 0) the debt side cancels but the collateral side does not: once the collateral term binds after a price fall, a healthy borrower's free-and-relock of its surplus as two transactions lowers backingPerUnit from 1.00 to 0.90 for the next day (the panel's launch variant).

     Who loses: every redeemer while cash is closed or paid against the depressed figure (one with minGemOut set is refused instead) and every rights holder refused by the ceiling; the churner gains only if someone redeems against it at the depressed figure. Reachable with the constants as committed (the launch variant needs the stressed state; the zero variant needs a wage).

     Smallest fix: the per-position cooling credit above (finding on _lagAtStart) closes this too if the record is kept in storage per position for BACKING_WARMUP rather than in transient storage: a position whose own decrease clamped the lag within the last day has its later increase credited back to the lag directly (min(increase, its recorded decrease)), so a round trip of any length up to a day leaves the lag where it was while a decrease by someone else still counts at once.

     Netting per block (storage copies of the start figures written when laggedAt advances) closes only the same-block form; the consecutive-block form costs the churner twelve seconds of fee and is not worth closing separately.

     test/scratch/LagChurnAcrossTransactions.t.sol (both tests fail on this code; each top-level call is its own transaction under foundry.toml's isolate = true, with no warp between the two halves).

     (A) Wage 0.01 applied; WORKER locks 2,000 IMD, draws 1,000; a day later earns 250 (the ceiling); a day later backingPerUnit() == 1e18, laggedNow() == (1,000, 2,000).

     WORKER sends wipe(debtOf) as one transaction and draw(1,000e18) as the next, same block.

     Expected: laggedDebt 1,000e18, laggedSecured 2,000e18, backingPerUnit 1e18, cash(10e18, 0, WORKER) pays about 9.95 IMD.

     Actual: laggedDebt 0 ('0 != 1000000000000000000000'), laggedSecured 0, backingPerUnit 0, cash reverts ZeroAmount.

     (B) Launch configuration, wage 0: WORKER 2,000 / 1,000, OTHER 38,000 / 1,000, IMD falls to $0.05, both terms re-priced by lock(1), a day warm: backingPerUnit 1e18.

     OTHER sends free(3,990e18) then lock(3,990e18) as two transactions in one block.

     Expected laggedSecured unchanged (40,000e18 + 2) and backing 1e18; actual laggedSecured 36,010e18 + 2 and backingPerUnit 0.90025e18.

   • lowCDPVault._resecure keeps a position's secured term unchanged through a repayment made while the price is unreadable, so a dead ETH/USD leg plus an ungated wipe overstates securedCollateral until the psrc/CDPVault.sol:865

     Q4, breaking the newest fix (final panel audit, oracle, low: a zero written while the leg was down persisted past its recovery and underpaid cash for a day). The fix keeps the term at min(before, collateral) when _priceOrZero() reads 0 (ParameterizedVault: a reverting, non-positive or malformed Chainlink ETH/USD answer, or a share vault that stops answering convertToAssets).

     But the term is min(collateral, 2 x principal / price), and wipe is ungated: a repayment during the outage lowers principal while the kept term still reflects the OLD principal, overstating the position's contribution by up to 2 x the repaid principal at the last price (the whole collateral, for a position at or below 200%).

     The overstatement survives the leg's recovery, because only a touch of THAT position re-prices its term and its owner need never touch it (one wei of principal keeps the term alive at no fee; free would re-price it, so the owner simply leaves the collateral locked). cash runs only after recovery (gated) and reads _securedCollateralValue through _backingPerUnit, so every redeemer is paid against backing a live price would not show: in the proof the honest post-wipe backing is 0.68 and the vault pays par, a 100 imdUSD burn taking 160.3 IMD from the candidate instead of 109.2.

     Who loses: the candidate whose debt is cancelled for more collateral than the capped payout allows, and the remaining holders, whose backing falls further; the wiper, if it also redeems, gains the difference. The work ceiling is unaffected (earnLine reads debt, not securedCollateral).

     Reachable with the constants as committed only while the ETH/USD leg (or the share vault's rate) is unreadable, which is an external failure the code explicitly models; low for that reason, but it is the mirror image of the underpayment the fix removed, and it lasts indefinitely where the underpayment lasted a day.

     Smallest fix: when the price cannot be read, scale the kept term by the principal change instead of keeping it whole: in _reduceDebt pass the previous principal to _resecure (or have _resecure take it) and use min(before * principalAfter / principalBefore, collateral) for the price == 0 branch; since the correct term min(c, 2 p' / price) is at least (p' / p) x min(c, 2 p / price), the scaled term never overstates and the next priced checkpoint still corrects it upward.

     WIPER locks 2,000 and draws 1,000 (term 2,000); OTHER locks 1,700 and draws 1,000 (term 1,700); three days; WIPER earns 500 (the warmed ceiling); three days; IMD falls to $0.60 (backing 0.888).

     Chainlink latestRoundData is made to revert (vm.mockCallRevert): cash reverts StaleFeed as expected; WIPER calls wipe(999e18) (ungated).

     The mock is cleared.

     Expected: securedCollateral at most what a live re-pricing gives (1,705.77: WIPER's term min(2,000, 2 x 1.37 / 0.6) = 4.57) and backingPerUnit at most 0.68e18.

     Actual: securedCollateral 3,700 and backingPerUnit 1e18 until WIPER's lock(1) re-prices the term.

     Second test: cash(100e18, 0, OTHER) by a holder pays 160.283 IMD against the kept term versus 109.236 IMD once the term is re-priced (vm.snapshotState / revertToState).

   • infoPosition struct NatSpec: the 8756817 edit left a dangling duplicate clause ('..., its amount-weighted mint time') and never states the unit of `recentlyMinted`src/CDPVault.sol:43

     NatSpec, not a code defect. Lines 41-43 now read 'Principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding, and mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see draw), its amount-weighted mint time.' The inserted clause was meant to replace the trailing one, so the sentence states the date twice and the comparison that actually gates freshness (_recentlyMinted: block.timestamp * 1e18 - mintedAt < 12 hours * 1e18) is not described.

     A reader of the ABI docs cannot tell from it that mintedAt is not a Unix timestamp.

     Fix: 'recentlyMinted is the principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding; mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-scaled seconds (block.timestamp * 1e18, see draw and _reduceDebt). Only redemption reads them.'

     Read src/CDPVault.sol:41-43 against _recentlyMinted (line 838-840) and draw (lines 472-477): expected a single statement of the unit; actual a sentence that ends '..., its amount-weighted mint time.' after already saying so.

6. Audit judgeAgent #351found 1 high, 4 medium, 1 low, 3 info

   The review is complete. The findings file is written and valid, every specialist finding was reproduced or merged, no source file was changed, and the scratch directory is removed.

   What was kept (9 findings in .imd-findings.json, 4 with proofs)

   • High, _clampLag line 894. The per-transaction netting from the newest fix clamps against aggregate start figures, not per position. A rights holder cancels an honest borrower's warm debt through cash, bite or cover, and draws the same principal in the same transaction. The lag stays warm, so the work ceiling mints against zero-second debt in the next transaction, or even inside the same call. This reopens D1 and did not exist before the fix. I wrote the proof myself since none was attached; both tests fail on this code.
   • Medium, cover line 558. The new recorded-bad-debt sweep takes a re-collateralised borrower's whole collateral for any caller-chosen amount, as little as one wei. Three specialists reported it; merged, with the economics proof.
   • Medium, _backingPerUnit line 708. Burned supply in the same transaction is not added back, so a wipe, cash, draw by a borrower in the 170 to 200 percent band is paid 3.9 percent above pro-rata. Proof attached.
   • Medium, _redemptionRate line 831. The same asymmetry pins the redemption fee at the cap for a tenth of the honest cost. Proof attached. The fix is one shared transient burn tally.
   • Medium, _lagAtStart line 905. A wipe in one transaction and a draw in the next still clamps the lag, driving backing to zero and closing cash for a day at a nonzero wage. Four specialists; merged. Documented as accepted, but the question asked for its cost, which is gas.
   • Low, _resecure line 865. An unpriced wipe keeps a term sized for the old principal. Five specialists; merged. I wrote my own reproduction: backing reads par where the re-priced figure is 0.82, and a reserve-funded redemption is overpaid.
   • Three info items. NatSpec claims the code no longer has, the garbled Position struct comment, and the unused second return of the reserve-backing helper.

   Questions with nothing wrong. The earn gate and the oracle replacement path (Q2) hold: proposals are validated at both propose and apply, and earn is refused at wage zero. The fresh-debt record (Q5) conserves principal-time to within rounding. The price gating and arithmetic (Q7) showed no new defect beyond the dead-leg case above.

   Coverage. I read CDPVault, ParameterizedVault and ImdUSD in full, plus UsdPriceFeed, the governance paths of Parameters and Governed, and the relevant parts of Treasury and MockWorkOracle. SharePriceFeed, SwarmFeed and the Treasury's reserve valuation I read only where the vault calls them.

   • highCDPVault._clampLag nets the lag against AGGREGATE start figures, so cancelling another borrower's warm principal (cash, bite or cover) and drawing the same amount in one transaction transfers its warmsrc/CDPVault.sol:894

     Q1, breaking the newest fix (8756817, 'the lag netted per transaction'). _clampLag now sets laggedDebt = min(totalDebt, startDebt) and laggedSecured = min(securedCollateral, startSecured), where start* is the lagged figure the transaction FIRST found (_lagAtStart, transient).

     The record is of the aggregate, not of the position whose capital moved, so any transaction in which totalDebt and securedCollateral end where they began leaves the lag untouched whoever's capital left and whoever's arrived. Before 8756817 the step-by-step clamp dropped laggedDebt to 0 at the cancellation and the attacker's redraw warmed from zero over BACKING_WARMUP, which is exactly what closed D1 (launch audit 2026-10-05, vault panel, medium). The fix reopens it.

     Call sequence (a contract, one transaction): cash(D, 0, HONEST) against any position inside the redeemable band (CR < mat + gap = 220%), paying only the redemption fee (0.5% to 5%) and receiving the candidate's collateral at backing less the fee; then lock(C); then draw(D).

     Inside the cash, _reduceDebt -> _resecure -> _clampLag records startDebt = D (warm) and startSecured; the cancellation lowers both to about 0; the draw raises totalDebt back to D and _clampLag sets laggedDebt = min(D, startDebt) = D and laggedSecured = min(C, startSecured). The same swap works through bite (paid the 20% bonus to do it) and through cover (the Treasury's imdUSD pays, nothing for the caller).

     Next transaction: backedDebt() = min(totalDebt, debtAtTxStart, laggedNow) - bad = D, earnLine() = reserve + 25% of D, earn mints; a third transaction wipes and frees. The whole round trip also fits in ONE transaction: ParameterizedVault._debtChanged records the total BEFORE the first change, i.e. the honest D the cash cancels, so _debtAtTransactionStart() = D and the finding-4d30331c cap passes too (cash, lock, draw, earn, wipe, free in one call).

     The redemption half is lifted the same way: _backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and min(prior, lagDebt), both left where they were, so the attacker's fresh collateral reads as warm backing for a reserve redemption at par in the next transaction.

     Who loses: every imdUSD holder (work-minted supply with nothing behind it once the attacker unwinds: in the proof totalEarned 250e18 against totalDebt 0.33e18 and backing 0.0013e18), and for the redemption half the remaining holders.

     Cost: the 5% redemption fee on D when done through cash (less in smaller tranches as the base decays), the bonus is EARNED through bite, nothing through cover. Reachable with the constants as committed once governance has applied a wage (48-hour proposal; the compute channel is the lag's stated purpose); at WAGE_WAD 0 earn is refused (WorkMintingOff) and only the redemption half is reachable.

     NatSpec the code does not have: lines 884-890 ('capital that leaves and comes back inside one transaction ... leaves the lag where it was' is true, but so does DIFFERENT capital), lines 302-304 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting'), ParameterizedVault 241-244 ('the ratio term is only ever backed by positions that existed before the caller arrived').

     Smallest fix: net per POSITION, not per transaction.

     In _reduceDebt / _resecure record, transiently keyed by the position (a transient mapping slot derived from the owner), the amount by which THAT position's own decrease lowered laggedDebt and laggedSecured in this transaction; on the SAME position's later increase within the transaction restore min(increase, its own recorded decrease) to the lagged figure (bounded by the live figure); clamp every other change step by step as before (laggedDebt = min(laggedDebt, totalDebt) after each change).

     Then the attacker's draw restores nothing (its own decrease was zero) and a borrower's own wipe-and-redraw still nets. Merged from audit_permissions 351ba7cc.

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal MockIMD at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 x Chainlink ETH/USD 2000e8 etched at CHAINLINK_ETH_USD), NHI 0.85 (mat 170, gap 50), wage 0.01 applied through Parameters.proposeWage + TIMELOCK + applyPending; TreasuryFactory etched at TREASURY_FACTORY.

     HONEST locks 2,000 IMD, draws 1,000 imdUSD (200%, inside the redeemable band) and transfers the 1,000 imdUSD to the attacker contract, which holds 1,800 IMD and 1,000 rights from MockWorkOracle.grantRights; three days pass: laggedNow() debt == 1,000e18, earnLine() == 250e18.

     Test 1: attacker.swap(1000e18, HONEST, 1800e18, 1000e18) = cash + lock + draw in ONE transaction.

     Afterwards HONEST's debt is under 1 imdUSD (fee residue) and the attacker's principal is 1,000e18, zero seconds old.

     Next transaction: EXPECTED laggedNow() debt about 0.33e18 (the residue), earnLine() under 1e18, attacker.earn(250e18) reverts WorkCeilingReached, totalEarned 0.

     ACTUAL (logged): laggedDebt 1000000000000000000000, earnLine 250000000000000000000, earn(250e18) succeeds ('next call did not revert as expected').

     Test 2: attacker.roundTrip(...) = cash, lock, draw, earn(250e18), wipe(debtOf), free(1800e18) in ONE transaction.

     EXPECTED: the earn reverts WorkCeilingReached inside the call.

     ACTUAL: the call succeeds; totalEarned() == 250e18 with the attacker's debt 0 and collateral withdrawn, totalDebt about 0.33e18, supply about 250.33e18.

   • mediumcover's recorded-bad-debt sweep (8756817) takes a re-collateralised borrower's WHOLE collateral for any caller-chosen `amount`, as little as one wei of debt, crediting nothing and skipping mark, gracesrc/CDPVault.sol:558

     Q3. The new second clause of sweepable sweeps, on a position with _recordedBadDebt != 0, any collateral worth less than that record at the fresh price: position.collateral is zeroed, all of it goes to the Treasury (gem.safeTransfer(payer, dust)), and the position's debt then falls only by amount, which is required to be nonzero and at most the debt, burned from the Treasury's imdUSD.

     Nothing credits the swept value against the debt it stood behind, and the branch does not require amount to retire anything like it. _recordedBadDebt is written to debtOf at drain and to min(previous, debtOf) at repayment; adding collateral never lowers it, and the totalBadDebt NatSpec (286-291) says a drained borrower who re-collateralises and keeps a healthy loan open is an accepted state.

     So every once-drained borrower carries the exposure for the life of the loan: whenever the market puts its collateral below the old record (about a 45% fall from a 200% re-lock, or simply re-locking in two tranches), anyone's cover(owner, 1) strips it.

     Every other underwater position gets bark, the NHI grace (six hours at NHI >= 0.85) and a bite that seizes exactly 1.2x the debt it repays and retires that debt; this path seizes everything, retires one wei, and the borrower still owes the whole record.

     The caller gains nothing directly (the collateral lands in the surplus account), so this is griefing or a mis-sized honest cover, but the operator's own keeper calls cover to retire realized bad debt in the ordinary course and will trigger it. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance.

     It also contradicts the function NatSpec at 531-532 ('Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)'): $262 of collateral against a $291.7 record is reachable by a bite of 218 imdUSD.

     Smallest fix: in the sweep branch credit the swept value before burning amount: cancel min(debt, mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18)) of the position's debt through _reduceDebt (fees first; record, totalBadDebt and totalDebt move together) so the sweep is a repayment in kind at price, and only then burn amount from the Treasury; or require amount >= min(mulDiv(dust, price_, 1e18), debtOf(owner)) so a sweep is a one-for-one liquidation the surplus funds; or drop the recorded-bad-debt clause and keep the NatSpec's rule.

     Reword 531-532 either way. Merged from audit_economics 05796c11, audit_math 9282f397 and audit_flow 96f4d5b6 (the same clause, one as a two-tranche re-lock losing the first tranche).

     whole finding

     test/scratch/Proof_05796c11d426.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85 (mat 170, lull 6 h).

     BORROWER locks 1,700 and draws 1,000 (exactly mat); KEEPER locks 20,000 and draws 5,000.

     Price to $0.50; bark(BORROWER); +6 h; KEEPER bites floor(1,700 x 0.5 / 1.2) = 708.33 imdUSD: collateral 0, recorded bad debt R = 291.7e18.

     Price back to $1; the Treasury holds 10 imdUSD.

     BORROWER re-locks 2R = 583.4 IMD (CR about 200%, healthy); cover(BORROWER, 1) reverts NoRealizedBadDebt as intended.

     Price to $0.45: collateral worth 262.5 < R.

     STRANGER calls cover(BORROWER, 1).

     EXPECTED: refused (a bite could reach it at 1.2x), or collateral leaves only against debt retired at no worse than the bite formula.

     ACTUAL: positions(BORROWER).collateral == 0, 583.4 IMD ($262.5) in the Treasury, debtOf(BORROWER) fell by exactly 1 wei: assertion '262527369863013698100 > 2'.

     Second variant (audit_math, same clause, read and consistent with the proof): price back to $1, BORROWER lock(160e18) as the first tranche of a rebuild worth $160 < the $166.7 record; cover(BORROWER, 1) moves all 160 IMD to the Treasury for 1 wei of debt.

     whole proof

   • mediumCDPVault._backingPerUnit: imdUSD burned earlier in the same transaction is not added back to the supply (or to the prior debt), so a same-call wipe / cash / draw by a borrower in the 170-200% band is src/CDPVault.sol:708

     Q1/Q6/Q7. The transient tallies net out capital that ARRIVES inside a transaction (SECURED_THIS_TX_SLOT, MINTED_THIS_TX_SLOT), and since 8756817 _clampLag leaves the lag where it was when debt leaves and returns inside one transaction. Nothing nets out imdUSD BURNED inside the transaction: _backingPerUnit divides by the live stablecoin.totalSupply(), and _securedCollateralValue caps at mat x the live totalDebt less this transaction's mints.

     A borrower whose collateral ratio is in [170%, 200%) has a secured term equal to its whole collateral (min(collateral, 2 x principal / price) binds on the collateral), so it can repay up to principal - collateral x price / 2 (15% of its principal at 170%) WITHOUT its term moving: the numerator holds while the denominator falls by the repayment. In the same call it redeems at that inflated figure, then draws the repayment back.

     Debt, supply and every position end where they began; the redeemer was paid above the honest pro-rata figure; and because _clampLag restores laggedDebt to the transaction's starting level on the redraw, the churn costs nothing afterwards (before 8756817 it left the lag depressed for a day).

     The boost is supply / (supply - repaid), up to about 7% in the regime where it applies (backing below par, which needs underwater debt of at least about 1.4x the churner's), a transfer from every other imdUSD holder to the redeemer, repeatable every transaction while the regime lasts, for gas plus briefly holding imdUSD equal to the repayment. Reachable with the constants as committed at any wage, no work supply needed.

     NatSpec the code does not have: lines 229-234 ('capital which exists only for the length of the call can neither inflate the backing the guard measures nor dilute the supply the fee is measured against') and the cash() comment at 651 ('Paying pro-rata instead is exactly neutral on backing by construction').

     Smallest fix: tally principal repaid in the transaction in a transient slot (BURNED_THIS_TX_SLOT, added in _payDebt, cover's burn and cash's burn, or in _reduceDebt for the principal part) and add it back to supply in _backingPerUnit and to prior in _securedCollateralValue (live and lagged), so a repayment counts only once it has outlived the transaction, symmetric with how a draw is excluded. The same slot fixes the _redemptionRate finding below. From audit_flow cbe35dcb.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/Proof_cbe35dcb7f1b.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85 (mat 170, candidates below 220%).

     A contract borrower locks 5,780 IMD and draws 1,000; OTHER locks 5,100, draws 3,000 and hands the borrower its 3,000 imdUSD.

     Price falls to $0.294: borrower at 170% (secured term = its whole 5,780), OTHER at 50%.

     Both touched at the new price and warmed three days: backingPerUnit() = 0.79968e18.

     EXPECTED: cash(500e18, 0, borrower) pays the same whether or not the borrower repays and redraws inside the same call, since debt and supply are identical before and after: 1,292.0 IMD.

     ACTUAL: cash alone pays 1292000000000000000000 raw; wipe(150e18) + cash(500e18, 0, borrower) + draw(150e18) in ONE transaction pays 1342083237164646386054 raw (+3.9%): inside the call supply fell 4,000 -> 3,850 while the collateral term held at 3,198, so backing read 3,198 / 3,850 = 0.8306 instead of 0.7997.

     Assertion: '1342083237164646386054 > 1292000000000000000000'.

     Afterwards backingPerUnit() for everyone else is 0.7144e18 instead of the pro-rata-neutral 0.7997e18.

   • medium_redemptionRate nets supply MINTED this transaction out of the fee base but not supply BURNED, so a dominant borrower's wipe / cash / draw pins the redemption fee at the 5% cap for a tenth of the honesrc/CDPVault.sol:831

     Q6, the fee base. The increase a burn adds to redemptionBaseRate is amount / prior / divisor with prior = totalSupply() - (principal and work minted this transaction). A burn earlier in the same transaction lowers totalSupply() and is not added back, so prior is the post-burn supply, not 'the supply that existed before this transaction' as the NatSpec at 819 states.

     A borrower holding share s of the supply as its own debt wipes it (burning its imdUSD), redeems a small amount against the shrunken supply, and draws the principal back, in one transaction: the base rate is set as if the burn were 1/(1-s) times larger.

     Reaching the 4.5% cap honestly costs a burn of 9% of supply at the 5% fee (0.45% of supply lost to the fee); with s = 90% it costs 0.9% of supply at the same fee, ten times less, and the pinned base decays with a twelve-hour half-life, so the pump is repeated twice a day. The redemption can be reserve-funded (freshCancelled == 0, so the base stands whole) or against any seasoned third-party position; the borrower's own position is unchanged afterwards.

     Victims: every later redeemer pays up to 500 bps instead of 50 for the next half-life or two, and the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) the cash() comment promises sits at 0.95 on demand, which blunts the arbitrage that defends the peg; a candidate borrower can use it to deter redemptions against itself.

     Reachable with the constants as committed (divisor 2, wage 0), no governance; needs a borrower whose debt is a large share of supply (LINE is $1M at launch, so one large position suffices).

     Smallest fix: track burns in a transient slot (BURNED_THIS_TX_SLOT, added in _payDebt, cover's burn and cash's burn) and measure prior = supply + burned - minted, mirroring the existing minted netting; the same slot serves the _backingPerUnit finding above. From audit_math 8dd9e22f.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/Proof_8dd9e22f56eb.t.sol (attached; fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault at $1, launch constants (divisor 2, wage 0).

     A contract borrower locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives the borrower 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded; supply 1,000, redemptionBaseRate 0, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) quotes 95 (floor 50 + 9/1000/2 = 45 bps).

     The borrower calls wipe(900e18), cash(9e18, 0, address(0)), draw(900e18) in one transaction.

     EXPECTED: redemptionBaseRate == 0.0045e18 (45 bps, the increase for a 9-of-1,000 burn).

     ACTUAL: 0.045e18, the cap: assertion '45000000000000000 > 4500000000000001'; redemptionFeeBps(0) reads 500 for everyone; the borrower's position is 2,000 / 900 again and the pump cost 0.45 imdUSD of fee.

   • mediumThe per-transaction netting of _clampLag lives in transient storage, so a borrower's wipe in one transaction and draw in the next (same block) still clamps laggedDebt and laggedSecured at once: with wsrc/CDPVault.sol:905

     Q1, second half: the gap the 8756817 fix for the final panel's medium leaves open, reported because the question asks what it costs and blocks. _lagAtStart records the transaction's starting lagged figures in transient storage, which the EVM clears at the end of each transaction, so 'a decrease that lasted' (NatSpec 889-890) includes a decrease that lasted zero seconds: the same sender's wipe(debtOf) as transaction N and draw(same) as transaction N+1 of one block (consecutive nonces from one key, or a bundle) clamp laggedDebt and laggedSecured to the post-wipe level, and transaction N+1 records that clamped level as ITS start, so the redraw warms from there over about a day (exponentially longer under activity, 297-302).

     Nothing elapses between the two: no stability fee, no price exposure, no attestation purchase, and the borrower already holds the imdUSD it drew.

     Effect with work-minted supply E outstanding (wage nonzero, the state the lag exists for): a borrower holding share s of the debt D leaves the lagged backing at (reserve + 1.7(1-s)D) / ((1-s)D + E); for the sole borrower with no reserve that is 0, so cash reverts ZeroAmount for every redeemer, a redeemer with minGemOut set is refused, and earnLine() falls with it (262.5 -> 12.5 in audit_economics' run); recovery is 0.24 after one quiet hour, par after a quiet day, and the churn is repeatable every block.

     At launch (wage 0, E = 0) the debt side cancels (supply <= fresh skips the lagged figure, or the lagged denominator is the other borrowers' own debt), but the collateral side still binds after a price fall that puts the collateral term in charge: a healthy surplus holder's free(x) then lock(x) in two transactions leaves laggedSecured at the lower level for a day, 1.00 -> 0.90 in the reproduction, and every redeemer is paid against it; a churner that is itself a candidate has its debt cancelled for less collateral per imdUSD.

     Cost: two transactions of gas, fresh agreeing feeds for the draw / free, and health at the redraw, which the position already had.

     Who loses: redeemers (closed or underpaid) and rights holders refused by the ceiling; the peg floor the cash() comment at 659-660 presents as min(1 - fee, backing) does not hold against the clamped figure actually paid. Reachable with the constants as committed for the collateral-side variant (stressed state); with a governed wage for the zero-backing variant.

     Smallest fix that keeps 'a decrease by someone else counts at once': the per-position record from the high finding above, kept in STORAGE for BACKING_WARMUP rather than in transient storage: record per position the lagged amounts its own decrease clamped (coolingDebt, coolingSecured, cooledAt); when the same position's principal or term rises again within BACKING_WARMUP of cooledAt, add min(increase, cooling) directly to laggedDebt / laggedSecured (bounded by the live figures) instead of routing it through _approach.

     Netting per block alone is not enough: the same two calls one block apart cost twelve seconds. Alternatively accept it and say so where the peg floor is claimed, and have the keeper (docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md) watch laggedSecured.

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1, NHI 0.85, wage 0.01 applied through Parameters after the 48 h timelock.

     BORROWER locks 2,000 IMD and draws 1,000 imdUSD; a day later WORKER earns 250 imdUSD (the ceiling) and hands 10 to the borrower for fees; a day later backingPerUnit() == 1e18, laggedNow() == (1,000e18, 2,000e18).

     BORROWER calls wipe(debtOf) [tx 1] then draw(1,000e18) [tx 2, same block].

     Position afterwards: 2,000 collateral, 1,000 principal; the churn cost under 0.3 imdUSD of fees.

     EXPECTED: backingPerUnit() == 1e18 and REDEEMER's cash(10e18, 0, BORROWER) pays about 9.91 IMD.

     ACTUAL: laggedDebt == 0, laggedSecured == 0, backingPerUnit() == 0 ('an adjacent-transaction round trip must not move backing: 0 != 1000000000000000000'), and cash reverts ZeroAmount().

     Launch-constant variant (audit_permissions, wage 0, read and consistent with the code): WORKER 2,000 / 1,000, OTHER 38,000 / 1,000, IMD to $0.05, both terms re-priced by lock(1), a day warm: backingPerUnit 1e18; OTHER sends free(3,990e18) then lock(3,990e18) as two transactions in one block: laggedSecured 36,010e18 + 2 against securedCollateral 40,000e18 + 2 and backingPerUnit 0.90025e18 for the next day.

     whole reproduction

   • low_resecure keeps a position's whole previous term through an ungated wipe while the price is unreadable, so a dead ETH/USD or share leg plus a repayment overstates securedCollateral (a term sized for tsrc/CDPVault.sol:865

     Q4, breaking the 8756817 fix (final panel, oracle, low).

     The fix keeps min(before, collateral) when _priceOrZero() reads 0 (ParameterizedVault: a reverting, non-positive or malformed Chainlink ETH/USD answer, or a share vault that stops answering convertToAssets; a merely stale answer still prices). lock keeping before is conservative (collateral only rose), but wipe is ungated too and lowers the principal while the term stays: the term is min(collateral, 2 x principal / price), bounded by PRINCIPAL as well as collateral, and a position with 2,000 collateral and 1,000 principal at $0.40 (term 2,000) that repays 999 during the outage keeps a term of 2,000 where a priced checkpoint gives min(2,000, 2 x 1.5 / 0.40) = about 7.4.

     The securedCollateral NatSpec at 250-251 no longer holds. The overstatement persists after the leg recovers: only that position's own lock/free/draw/wipe, or a redemption or bite against it, re-prices the term, and a healthy position with one wei of principal is refused by bite, cash-as-candidate and cover, so nobody else can force a checkpoint and the owner (who may also be the redeemer) has every reason not to.

     It feeds both the live and the lagged side of _backingPerUnit (securedCollateral never fell, so _clampLag had nothing to clamp).

     It is hidden while the aggregate cap mat x prior binds and matters exactly when honest backing is below par (a price fall after the outage): the reserve-funded part of cash then pays at par instead of at backing (the position-funded part is stopped by RedemptionWorsensRatio), so the Treasury's reserve is overpaid by (par - honest backing) on every unit redeemed, at the remaining holders' expense. The work ceiling is unaffected (earnLine reads debt, not securedCollateral).

     Preconditions are exogenous (a revert-dead leg, not reachable by an unprivileged actor; then a fall; then a reserve), hence low; but it is the mirror image of the underpayment the fix removed, and it lasts indefinitely where the underpayment lasted a day.

     The _secured NatSpec at 844 ('an unpriced feed counts the position for nothing') describes the behaviour the fix removed, and 863 ('the next priced checkpoint of the position corrects it') omits that only the owner can produce one.

     Smallest fix: when price == 0 and the principal fell, scale the kept term by the principal ratio: pass the previous principal from _reduceDebt and use min(before, collateral, mulDiv(before, position.debt, oldDebt)); the bound 2 x principal / price is linear in principal, so this is exact when the bound was binding and only tightens when the collateral was; lock / lockIMD may keep before as they do.

     Then reword 844 and 863. audit_economics validated that with this patch the Cover, LaggedBacking, BadDebtSweep, MarkerBadDebt, Redemption, RedemptionEconomics and Liquidation suites stay green except test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_aDeadLegNeitherZeroesTheSecuredTermNorTheLag, which pins the term as kept to the wei and would assert the scaled figure instead.

     ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal IMD at $1 (Chainlink ETH/USD etched at 2000e8), NHI 0.85, the Treasury holding 50 IMD.

     A locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; B locks 2,000, draws 1,000 and hands the imdUSD to REDEEMER.

     Price to $0.40; A and B each lock(1) to re-price their terms; four quiet days: securedCollateral == 4,000e18 + 2, backingPerUnit() == 0.81e18. vm.mockCallRevert on CHAINLINK_ETH_USD latestRoundData: REDEEMER's cash(20e18, 0, B) reverts StaleFeed as designed; A calls wipe(999e18), ungated.

     Mock cleared.

     EXPECTED: the unpriced figure never exceeds the next priced one: A's term min(2,000, 2 x 1.5 / 0.40) = about 7.4, securedCollateral about 2,007e18, backingPerUnit about 0.82e18.

     ACTUAL (logged): securedCollateral kept 4000000000000000000002, backingPerUnit kept 1000000000000000000; after A's lock(1) re-prices it: securedCollateral 2007432876712328765001, backingPerUnit 821751555085508501 ('the unpriced figure must not exceed the next priced one: 1000000000000000000 > 821751555085508501').

     A reserve-funded cash(20e18, 0, B) before the touch pays 49250000000000000000 IMD (par less the fee) against 40471264087961293650 once re-priced: 8.78 IMD of the Treasury's reserve overpaid per 20 imdUSD.

     Each is the documentation half of a finding above; reword to the behaviour the code has, or fix the code and keep the text. (1) 884-890, _clampLag: 'capital that leaves and comes back inside one transaction ... leaves the lag where it was' is also true of DIFFERENT capital (high finding), and 'a decrease that lasted is a decrease' treats a wipe and a redraw in adjacent transactions of one block, lasting zero seconds, as lasting (medium finding).

     (2) 302-304 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting') and ParameterizedVault.sol 241-244 ('the ratio term is only ever backed by positions that existed before the caller arrived'): the swap mints work against zero-second debt in the same transaction. (3) 819, _redemptionRate: 'the burned fraction of the supply that existed before this transaction': supply burned in the transaction is not added back.

     (4) 229-234, the transient tallies: 'capital which exists only for the length of the call can neither inflate the backing the guard measures nor dilute the supply the fee is measured against': a same-call repayment does both. (5) 531-532, cover: 'Reverts on a position holding collateral a bite could still reach (that is not realized bad debt)': the recorded-bad-debt clause at 558 sweeps bite-reachable collateral.

     (7) 703-705, _backingPerUnit: 'honest redemptions are not underpaid, because new debt and the imdUSD minted against it are excluded together', and 651 / 659-660, cash: 'Paying pro-rata instead is exactly neutral on backing by construction' and 'the peg floor is min(1 - fee, backing)': after a cross-transaction churn honest redemptions are paid against a figure below the honest backing, to zero, and a same-call burn pays above pro-rata.

   • infoPosition struct NatSpec is garbled after 8756817: the inserted 1e18-scaled-seconds clause left the old tail in place, so the sentence states the date twice and reads as whole seconds at its endsrc/CDPVault.sol:41

     Lines 41-43 read as one sentence: 'Principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding, and mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-SCALED seconds (see draw), its amount-weighted mint time. Only redemption reads them'. The inserted clause was meant to replace the trailing one.

     A reader of the ABI docs or the struct will take mintedAt for a Unix timestamp unless they reach the inner clause; everything that reads it (draw 472-477, _reduceDebt 1230-1241, _recentlyMinted 838-840) uses WAD-scaled seconds correctly, and Q5's arithmetic is otherwise sound: principal-time is conserved through every draw/wipe pair to within rounding (draw rounds the weighted date toward the present by at most one wad-second, _reduceDebt rounds the age up), a tranche can only re-date a record by its share, a repayment retires the youngest first, and an aged-out record restarts at the present.

     Fix: 'recentlyMinted is the principal minted within FRESH_DEBT_WINDOW of mintedAt and still outstanding; mintedAt is its amount-weighted mint time in 1e18-scaled seconds (block.timestamp * 1e18, see draw and _reduceDebt).

     EXPECTED: one grammatical statement of the two fields and their unit.

     ACTUAL: the clause 'its amount-weighted mint time' appears twice, the second in whole-second wording after the corrected one. test/LaggedBacking.t.sol test_drawAndWipePairsDoNotKeepSeasonedDebtFresh pins the code behaviour per the inner clause.

   • info_redemptionReserveBacking's second return value (the rounded-up value leaving the reserve) is computed and never read: the only caller passes amount 0 and discards itsrc/CDPVault.sol:710

     The virtual _redemptionReserveBacking(amount, price) at 225 returns (reserve backing, ceil(amount x price / 1e18)); ParameterizedVault overrides it at 172-183 with the same shape. The only call is _backingPerUnit at 710, with a literal 0 for amount and (uint256 reserve,) destructuring. The second computation is a remnant of the refused-redemption guard that the pro-rata payout replaced (the cash comment at 636-648 describes the replacement).

     No behaviour depends on it; it costs a mulDiv per redemption and makes the ParameterizedVault NatSpec at 164-171 ('One valuation for the IMD held and the IMD leaving is what makes the comparison mean something') describe a comparison that no longer happens.

     Fix: drop the parameter and the second return (and the ParameterizedVault override's), or document it as unused. From audit_math d32ebe3b.

     grep -n '_redemptionReserveBacking' src/*.sol shows exactly three lines: the definition (src/CDPVault.sol:225), the override (src/ParameterizedVault.sol:172) and one call site (src/CDPVault.sol:710) with a literal 0 as the first argument and the second return value discarded; no other reader exists in src/.
