1.highR1-A4-1 fix incomplete: a one-block buy / releaseToHolders / claim / sell still takes most of a holder-routed lump, one day's share at a timelaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:128
```
        uint256 elapsed = block.timestamp - st.lastReleaseAt;
        if (elapsed > MAX_RELEASE_GAP) elapsed = MAX_RELEASE_GAP;
        amount = uint256(st.ratePerSecond) * elapsed;
```
The holder stream (D-78, the fix of R1-A4-1) changes how much one releaseToHolders pays (rate x min(elapsed, MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 day)) but not who receives it: _releaseToHolders transfers the whole slice to the coin and calls PadToken.distribute(), which credits it pro rata to the balances of that instant, with no hold and no time weighting. releaseToHolders, claim(coin) and SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders are permissionless and run outside any PoolManager unlock, so the caller picks the instant. A wallet with no position waits until about a day has accrued (or goes first in the block of the keeper's daily call, HANDOFF section 6) and in one transaction buys through PadRouter.buyWith, calls releaseToHolders, claims its dividend and sells back through sellFor. It carries no price risk and pays only the round-trip fee; its own release restarts the clock, so it repeats on each of the ~7 days. It is profitable whenever its share of one day's release exceeds the round-trip fee: with D the day's release, E the value of the eligible float, P the position and f the coin's fee rate, profit = DP/(E+P) - 2fP > 0 whenever D > 2f*E (3% to 9% of the float's value per day). That is the normal state of the coins this feature exists for: an abandoned coin whose float was sold down and whose swarm budget and creator fees were swept to holders.

Measured on this commit in the project's own regression scenario (test_cto_holderLumpCantBeCapturedInOneBlock: 3% tax coin, alice holds 100 IMD worth, 2,000 IMD creator fees + 1,500 IMD swarm budget routed to holders, stream 3,503.5 IMD at 500.5 IMD/day), run one day after the stream is funded instead of in the funding block: one release pays 500.5 IMD, carol's one-block 1,000 IMD position takes 399.45 IMD of it (79.8%), alice (the standing holder) gets 101.05 IMD, and carol ends the block +311.47 IMD after about 88 IMD of fees. Repeated on each of the 7 days carol takes 2,796 of the 3,503.5 IMD (net +2,180 IMD) and alice, who held all week, receives 707 IMD. The regression test passes only because it acts in the funding block, when nothing is releasable yet.

This contradicts invariant 6 as written ("Dividends ... can't be captured ... within one block"; the stream is the mechanism that sentence relies on), ARCHITECTURE 5.2 and CTO-RULES ("spread over about 7 days so nobody can buy in just before a payout") and the regression test's own assertion. The staking analogue (R1-A3-3) was accepted in writing, but it needs a hold across an Ethereum block and its drip is 1/7 of the buffer at most once per catch-up window; this needs no hold at all and the whole lump is reachable in 7 blocks. Two details widen it: (a) since R2-A4-3 a running stream never lowers its rate, so a later lump rides the earlier lump's rate (reported separately); (b) claim(coin) and sweepToHolders(coin) are permissionless, so the taker also chooses when a lump enters the stream. Rated High as the residual of a fixed High that still fails the fix's own test under realistic conditions; the owner may instead accept it in writing (as R1-A3-3 was), in which case invariant 6, D-78 and CTO-RULES must be reworded.

Fix that keeps D-52 and D-78 (any of these makes the attached proof pass): release what the stream owes before a buyer receives tokens (BondingCurve.buy and the router's pool-buy path call creatorVault.releaseToHolders(coin) first, the way the holder tax is credited before the buyer gets tokens), so accrued time always goes to the holders who were there; or hold tokens that arrived in the current block out of a release (as StakedPONDPAD.heldShares does); or make one release worth less than a round trip's fees (MAX_RELEASE_GAP of an hour or less, with router trades and the keeper poking the stream). Extend the regression test to later days.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/HolderStreamOneBlockCapture.t.sol -vv (attached; fails on this commit, passes on a copy of CreatorVault with MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 hours, checked in test/scratch).

Launch FROG with CoinFees(300, 5000, 0, 5000); at T0+1h alice buys with 100 IMD; credit 2,000 IMD to CreatorVault and 1,500 IMD to SwarmBudget for the coin (as the curve does); creator: vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); anyone: vault.claim(coin); budget.sweepToHolders(coin) (stream 3,503.5 IMD, 500.5 IMD/day).

Warp to T0+1h+1 day. carol (no coin, 1,000 IMD), in one block: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 1000e18, 0, 0, now, 0); vault.releaseToHolders(coin) -> 500.5 IMD; PadToken(coin).claim() -> 399.445983379501448889 IMD; router.sellFor(all).

Expected (invariant 6, the regression test's own assertion): carol's IMD <= before.

Actual: 1,000,311.470983379501448889 against 1,000,000 before; alice's dividend for the day 101.054016620498631110.

Repeating the block on each of days 1..7: carol's dividends 2,796.121883656509695290, alice's 707.378116343490304709, stream empty, carol net +2,180.296883656509695290 IMD.
2.lowHolder stream: the clock runs while nobody is eligible, so the first wallet to buy one token collects the banked day's share in the same transaction, and releasableToHolders overstates what releaseToHlaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:161
```
        if (IHolderCoin(coin).eligibleSupply() < IHolderCoin(coin).MIN_ELIGIBLE()) return 0;
```
D-79 (R2-A1-3) made _releaseToHolders return 0 while eligibleSupply < MIN_ELIGIBLE, so nothing is parked on a coin with no holders.

It returns before touching lastReleaseAt, so the stream keeps accruing (capped at MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 day) and the banked day is paid to the first wallet that becomes eligible: it buys one whole token (MIN_ELIGIBLE = 1e18, about 0.000002 IMD on a fresh curve), calls releaseToHolders in the same transaction as the only eligible holder, is credited the whole day's share, and sells back; every further day the same dust position takes the next day's share.

RewardDripper had the same gap (R2-A3-3) and D-79 fixed it by forfeiting closed time; the holder stream was not given the same treatment.

Side effect: releasableToHolders (NatSpec: "IMD the next releaseToHolders would release") reports a positive amount while releaseToHolders pays 0, so keeper.mjs (which sends releaseToHolders for every coin with releasableToHolders > 0, daily) sends a no-op transaction a day per such coin and PadLens shows a release that will not happen.

Low: the IMD belongs to a coin with no holders at that instant, so nobody is diluted when it is taken; it is the limiting case (100% share) of the one-block capture finding. Fix that keeps D-78: while nobody is eligible either forfeit the time (set lastReleaseAt = block.timestamp when returning at line 161, as the dripper does) or send the due share to the growth fund as R2-A1-3 does for the holder tax; and make releasableToHolders return 0 in that state.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_deadCoinFirstBuyerTakesBankedDay (passes on this commit, asserting the capture).

No-tax coin; alice buys 100 IMD and sells everything back (PadToken.eligibleSupply() == 0); creator: vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); anyone: vault.fundHolders(coin, 700e18).

Warp 30 days. vault.releasableToHolders(coin) == 100.000000000000051200e18 while vault.releaseToHolders(coin) returns 0. carol: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 0.001e18, ...) -> 1,530 tokens; vault.releaseToHolders(coin) -> 100e18 released; PadToken(coin).claim() -> 100e18 to carol; sellFor(all).

Expected (R2-A1-3 intent, R2-A3-3 fix): time with nobody eligible is not banked for the next buyer.

Actual: carol nets +99.99997 IMD for a 0.001 IMD one-block position, repeatable daily.
3.lowHolder stream: a lump that joins a running stream is paid at the earlier lump's higher rate, so it can leave in one release instead of over ~7 days (side effect of the R2-A4-3 fix)launchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:146
```
        if (before != 0 && st.ratePerSecond > rate) rate = st.ratePerSecond;
```
Since R2-A4-3 a top-up never lowers a running stream's rate, so the rate is the highest remaining / 7 days the stream ever had until remaining hits zero.

When a large lump is nearly paid out and a smaller one joins (claim to the coin, SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders, fundHolders: all permissionless, so anyone picks the moment), the second lump inherits the first lump's rate: if it is at most one day of the old rate it is released in full by a single releaseToHolders one day later.

Invariant 6 / D-78 promise lumps routed to holders are released "over ~7 days, at most one day's share per release"; for the second lump the day's share is 100% of it.

The per-release amount never exceeds the earlier peak (old lump / 7), so this is Low rather than a new High, but the typical case is the one the stream exists for: a one-off swarm budget sweep at a holders takeover sets a high rate, and each later creator-fee claim that lands before the stream is empty is paid out within a day to whoever holds at that release (which feeds the one-block capture).

Fix: do not carry the old rate for new money; e.g. track the stream's end time and on a top-up set the new end to the amount-weighted average of the old end and now + 7 days (rate = remaining / (end - now)): a 1 wei top-up then moves nothing (R2-A4-3 stays fixed) and a new lump still gets ~7 days; or keep per-lump sub-streams.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_laterLumpInheritsOldRate (passes on this commit).

Coin whose recipient is the coin, alice holds. t0: fundHolders(coin, 7,000e18): rate 1,000 IMD/day. releaseToHolders at t0+1d..t0+6d: 1,000 IMD each, remaining 999.99. t0+6d23h: fundHolders(coin, 900e18): the call first releases 958.33, remaining becomes 941.67, ratePerSecond stays 1,000 IMD/day (holderStreamOf). t0+7d23h: releaseToHolders(coin) returns 941.666666666666110000e18 and remaining == 0.

Expected (D-78): about 134.5 IMD per daily release, the 900 IMD lump paid over ~7 days.

Actual: the whole lump is paid by one release, one day after it joined.
4.lowBoth timelocks can remove their own delay with one delayed self-call (OpenZeppelin updateDelay), after which every 48 h and 7-day power, including the sinkAdmin powers R1-A2-5 fixed in place, is immedlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
```
        d.fastTimelock = new TimelockController(p.chain.fastDelay, proposers, executors, address(0));
```
Deploy.s.sol creates both timelocks as stock OpenZeppelin 5.0.2 TimelockControllers with admin = address(0). The constructor always grants DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE to the timelock itself, and updateDelay(uint256) (callable only by the timelock, i.e. through one of its own operations) has no floor.

The Safe, the only proposer, schedules updateDelay(0) with the timelock as target; after one wait (48 h or 7 days) anyone executes it; getMinDelay() is then 0 and from that block the Safe schedules and executes any later call in the same transaction.

Everything D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1 put behind the delays is affected: oracle signers and thresholds (AttestationVerifier), CTOModule.setVerifier / setCouncil / retireCouncil, VersionRegistry.setVerifier / setCurrent, FeeSplitter shares and recipients, StakedPONDPAD powers, WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards, MarketController.approveMigration / setBurnSink / setRewardsRecipient (7 days); PadConfig, GrowthFund, RewardDripper, PadBuyer, AirdropDistributor, MarketController policy, SwarmBudget relay (48 h).

R1-A2-5 was fixed by making sinkAdmin immutable so the 7-day timelock "can't hand the sink and migration-approval powers to an undelayed address" (D-79): the address is fixed but its delay is not, so the D-40 review window (holders read the approved hook's code for 7 days) can still be reduced to zero by one visible operation, after which approveMigration + migrate (the Safe is migrator) move the whole $PONDPAD position into a hook nobody had time to read.

The self-admin role also lets a timelock grant PROPOSER_ROLE to another address or revoke the Safe's CANCELLER_ROLE the same way, and Solady Ownable lets the 7-day timelock transferOwnership of each owned contract to an undelayed address. ARCHITECTURE 5.6 lists no "change the delay" power; D-57 says "no admin".

The first step is itself delayed and visible (as a call to the timelock itself, which the Transparency page decodes only against the owned contracts' ABIs), and it needs the Safe, which is why this stays Low like R1-A2-5: an owner path past a stated bound, to document as a trust assumption or close.

Fix that keeps D-57: deploy a thin TimelockController subclass whose updateDelay reverts (or refuses a delay below the deploy-time minimum; updateDelay is virtual in OZ 5.0.2), and consider renouncing the timelock's own DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE after deploy; decide whether ownership transfers of the 7-day contracts should stay possible.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: both tests fail on this commit for the stated reason; it runs Deploy.deploy locally with the mainnet delays).

Safe: slowTimelock.schedule(slowTimelock, 0, abi.encodeCall(updateDelay, (0)), 0, 0, 7 days); 7 days later anyone: slowTimelock.execute(same).

Then in one transaction: Safe schedule(controller, 0, approveMigration(unreviewedHook), 0, salt, 0) and execute(same); same for verifier.setSigner(newSigner, true).

Expected (D-57, D-40, D-79): every 7-day power waits 7 days; getMinDelay() stays 7 days.

Actual: controller.approvedMigration() == unreviewedHook and verifier.isSigner(newSigner) in the proposing block; getMinDelay() == 0.

48 h test: config.setIntegratorShareBps(2500) is 2,500 in the proposing block.
5.lowSocialRegistry: revoking a link (unlink / unlinkWallet by the X link key or the owner) does not consume the nonce, so a voucher signed before the revocation restores the link until its deadlinelaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:104
```
    function unlinkWallet(address account) external {
        if (msg.sender != account && msg.sender != verifier && msg.sender != owner()) revert Unauthorized();
        if (bytes(walletHandle[account]).length == 0) revert NotLinked();
        delete walletHandle[account];
        emit WalletUnlinked(account, msg.sender);
    }
```
link and linkWallet bind vouchers to nonces[coin]++ / walletNonces[msg.sender]++, and nothing else moves those nonces. unlink(coin) and unlinkWallet(account), the revocation paths of the X link service key and the 48 h timelock (D-50; ARCHITECTURE 8: the service "re-checks links weekly"), delete the link but leave the nonce.

A wallet (or fee recipient) that went through the link flow again while already linked and kept that voucher unsubmitted (the service signs for the current nonce) re-links itself right after a revocation, without the service, as long as the voucher's deadline has not passed. For wallets that re-enables a revoked CTO proposer (propose needs a non-empty walletHandle) under the revoked handle; for coins it restores a revoked badge.

Same class as R1-A3-4 (AirdropDistributor.setClaimWallet), fixed there by consuming the nonce. The deadline is chosen by a service not built yet (ROADMAP item 15), so the window is undefined today; no funds move: Low.

Fix: walletNonces[account]++ in unlinkWallet and nonces[coin]++ in unlink (at least when the caller is the verifier or the owner), so a revocation voids every voucher issued before it.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/SocialRevocation.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: both tests fail on this commit for the stated reason).

Service key signs WalletLink(bob, keccak256('frogdao'), nonce 0, deadline T0+1d); bob: linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V0); bob keeps V1 for nonce 1 (same deadline).

Service (verifier): unlinkWallet(bob): walletHandle(bob) == ''. bob: linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V1).

Expected: BadVoucher, the revocation stands until the service signs again.

Actual: accepted, walletHandle(bob) == 'frogdao'.

Same for a coin: bob (fee recipient) links a handle with the nonce-0 voucher, keeps the nonce-1 one; owner: unlink(coin); bob: link(coin, h, deadline, C1): badgeOf(coin) shows the handle again.
6.lowVersionRegistry: after an owner rollback, an attested activation of a never-activated version above the rolled-back pointer moves currentVersion again (R1-A4-6 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/VersionRegistry.sol:140
```
        if (version > currentVersion) {
            currentVersion = version;
            emit CurrentSet(version);
        }
```
_activate moves currentVersion whenever version > currentVersion.

That compares against the current pointer, not the newest version ever activated, so it stops protecting once the owner has rolled back with setCurrent: after setCurrent(1) with version 3 activated and version 2 registered but never activated, anyone holding a valid audit 'yes' for version 2 calls activate(2, ...) and currentVersion becomes 2, a version the owner did not choose; undoing it takes the 7-day timelock.

That is the R1-A4-6 outcome reached from the rolled-back state; invariant 18 says only the owner rolls back. The regression test test_versions_olderActivationDoesNotRollBack only covers currentVersion == newest.

Low: the registry gates nothing onchain (invariant 18), so the effect is on what the site and integrators read from current().

Fix: remember the highest version ever activated (or ever current) and auto-advance only above it, e.g. if (version > highestActivated) { highestActivated = version; currentVersion = version; }.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/VersionRollback.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: fails on this commit for the stated reason).

Register versions 1, 2, 3; activateManually(1), activateManually(3): currentVersion == 3.

Owner: setCurrent(1).

Approved signer signs a 'true' (panel 60, agreed 50, quorum 40) for question(2, '6f1d2c3a-1111-4222-8333-944455556666'); anyone: activate(2, job, att, sig).

Expected (R1-A4-6 fix, invariant 18): version 2 marked activated, currentVersion stays 1.

Actual: currentVersion == 2 and CurrentSet(2) is emitted.
7.lowCTOModule: the council's 90-day wait follows only cancel(); a contested council proposal that lapses unconfirmed can be proposed again, uncontested, the moment it expires (R1-A4-5 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:219
```
        uint256 cancelled = councilCancelledAt[coin];
        if (cancelled != 0 && block.timestamp < cancelled + COOLDOWN) revert Cooldown();
```
R1-A4-5 named two abuses of the council slot: squatting it against attested proposals (closed by the replacement rule) and cancelling a contested proposal to re-propose it with contested = false, dodging the public confirmation CTO-RULES and ARCHITECTURE 5.2 require ("the council must confirm publicly"). The 90-day wait only runs from cancel() (councilCancelledAt).

A council proposal that is contested and never confirmed is not cancelled: it lapses at expiresAt (7 + 7 + 3 days after it was made), nothing records that, and proposeByCouncil for the same coin and recipient succeeds in the block it expires, with the contest wiped. Each cycle the creator must contest again within 7 days; the first missed window lands the takeover with no confirmation ever given.

Letting a proposal lapse is therefore cheaper for the council than withdrawing it (17 days instead of 90), and the cancel wait punishes only the honest case. The council is semi-trusted and retires one-way, and every cycle gives the creator a full contest window, so Low.

Fix: start the same per-coin wait when a council proposal lapses, e.g. in proposeByCouncil revert Cooldown while the stale _pending[coin] is a council proposal with block.timestamp < expiresAt + COOLDOWN (at least when it was contested and not confirmed); the expired struct is still in storage, so no extra state is needed.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/CouncilLapse.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: fails on this commit for the stated reason).

Coin 30 days old, recipient = creator.

P: council proposeByCouncil(coin, safeM, 'ipfs://evidence') (executableAt P+7d, expiresAt P+10d).

P+1d: creator contest(coin) (executableAt P+14d, expiresAt P+17d).

The council never confirms.

P+17d: execute reverts WindowClosed; council proposeByCouncil(coin, safeM, ...) again.

Expected: Cooldown (a withdrawn proposal waits 90 days; a contested one never confirmed should not be cheaper to re-arm).

Actual: succeeds, pendingOf(coin).contested == false, councilCancelledAt == 0; at P+24d anyone executes with no confirmation.
8.lowCTOModule applies the oracle bar per submitted request, not per question: a 'no' answer leaves no trace and nothing limits re-asking, so a takeover or confirmation is decided by the first 'yes' among launchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:292
```
        if (!verifier.verifyBool(att, signature, q)) revert AnswerNo();
```
verifyBool checks panel >= 51 (>= 75 for confirm) and agreed >= 2/3 for the one attestation submitted; a valid 'false' makes propose / confirm revert AnswerNo, which also rolls back usedRequest, so a refusal changes nothing onchain and there is no way for anyone to submit a 'no'.

Nothing ties a takeover to one oracle request: the question text is public and fixed per (coin, recipient, handle[, contestedAt]), oracle.request is a separate 0.5 IMD request each time (D-48), and the requester also picks the evidence window of each request (R2-A4-4, pin deferred), so the same question can be put to as many fresh panels as the window allows and only the first 'yes' submitted.

The decision rule the contract implements is "at least one panel said yes", not "the panel said yes": for any claim a panel is genuinely split on (an 'Abandoned' creator who posts rarely, an announcement slightly short of 7 days) the two-thirds bar costs tens of IMD to pass (with independent members each voting yes with probability 0.5, P[>= 34 of 51] is about 1.2%, about 83 asks / 41.5 IMD; P[>= 50 of 75] about 0.26%; at 0.55, 6.1% and 2.7%), well below a coin's creator fees, and a unanimous 'no' from a 100-member panel after a contest does not stop a later 50-of-75 'yes'.

The same holds for VersionRegistry.activate. The repository's sister design (swarm-steward/IMD-QUESTIONS.md item 18) names this attack and cancels a queued action when anyone submits a 'no' issued no later than the 'yes'; CTOModule has no equivalent, and the creator's only defence is to notice and contest within 3 days, every time.

Low: it needs panel variance rather than a signer fault, the contest path exists, no attestation can be minted today, and the oracle is trusted for its answer (invariant 16 holds as written).

Options that keep the oracle trust model: let anyone submit a valid 'no' for the same rebuilt question (verifyBool returns false) and record the latest 'no' per question hash; refuse a propose / confirm whose 'yes' was issued no later than a recorded 'no' (in confirm, a 'no' from a >= 75 panel issued after the contest ends the takeover); add a per-coin cooldown after a lapsed or unconfirmed attested proposal; or bind the confirmation to one request id registered before it is answered.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_noAnswerLeavesNoTraceAndLaterYesConfirms (passes on this commit, asserting the sequence).

Approved signer; bob linked to '@frogdao'; coin 30 days old. bob: propose(coin, safeM, A_yes, sig). creator: contest at P+1h. q = confirmQuestion(coin, safeM, 'frogdao').

Three attestations for q with answer false, panelSize 100, quorum 67, agreed 100, issuedAt P+2h (distinct windows): each confirm(coin, no, sig) reverts AnswerNo and usedRequest(no.requestId) stays false.

A fourth for q: answer true, panelSize 75, quorum 50, agreed 50, issuedAt P+3h: confirm succeeds, confirmed == true; at P+10d execute(coin) moves the recipient to safeM.

Expected: a larger panel's 'no' after the contest ends the takeover, or at least can be put on record against it.

Actual: the refusals are invisible and the first 'yes' decides.
9.lowSocialRegistry: a coin's X link survives a change of fee recipient, so after a takeover the ousted creator's X account is still the coin's verified handle, and after a holders takeover nobody the takelaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:123
```
    function badgeOf(address coin) external view returns (bytes32 handleHash, bool duplicate) {
        handleHash = handleOf[coin];
        duplicate = handleHash != bytes32(0) && linkCount[handleHash] > 1;
    }
```
link is restricted to the coin's fee recipient and the voucher binds the linking account, but the registry stores only the handle hash and never re-checks the recipient: handleOf / badgeOf keep returning the handle after CreatorVault.setRecipient or ctoSetRecipient.

Takeovers exist for creators who abandoned or rugged a coin (CTO-RULES R2); after one executes, the coin page still shows the ousted creator's X account with the verified badge, a PondPad-verified voice for the coin at the moment the community removed them (e.g. to post a 'migration' address).

A multisig recipient can call unlink if it knows to; after a takeover to holders the recipient is the coin contract, which can't call anything, so only the X link key or the 48 h timelock can clear it. CTO-RULES R2/R5 also refer to 'the coin's linked X account' without saying it may still be the ousted creator's.

No funds move: Low.

Fix: store the account that linked the handle and have badgeOf / handleOf report nothing once creatorVault.recipientOf(coin) is no longer that account (or let anyone unlink a coin whose recipient changed since the link).
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_badgeSurvivesHoldersTakeover (passes on this commit, asserting the stale badge).

Creator links keccak256('ruggedcreator') to the coin with a voucher from the X link key.

At coin age 30 days the council proposes proposeByCouncil(coin, coin, ...)

(fees to holders; the attested path behaves the same); 7 days later anyone calls execute(coin): vault.recipientOf(coin) == coin.

Expected: the coin no longer shows the ousted creator's account as verified.

Actual: social.badgeOf(coin) still returns (keccak256('ruggedcreator'), false); unlink(coin) reverts Unauthorized for the creator and for holders.

The proposal was made by the wallet linked to the X account named in the question (shown on the PondPad page with a verified badge). That X account publicly announced the takeover, with the coin address and the new receiver, **at least 7 days before** the oracle question was asked.
```
The rules are what the oracle panel executes, pinned once and named in every question for the module's life (D-51; rulesURI has no setter). Three conditions do not fit the contracts.
1. Ordering: CTOModule.propose takes the oracle answer as its input, so when the first question is asked there is no on-chain proposal (pendingOf(coin).newRecipient == 0), no takeover banner (the site shows one only during the notice, SITE-COPY) and no on-site posts at all (D-70: no on-site comments). R1's first sentence ('The proposal was made by the wallet linked to the X account named in the question'), instruction 3 ('the coin page shows ... the takeover proposal') and R5 ('posted on the PondPad coin page, at least 7 days before the question') cannot be checked for the first question, and instruction 1 tells the panel to answer false whenever a rule cannot be verified. A panel following the text literally answers false to every first question; once retireCouncil has been called (one-way) no takeover could then ever be proposed.
2. R2 'Abandoned' lists 'did not claim creator fees', but CreatorVault.claim(coin) is permissionless and pays the creator either way: a Claimed event and incoming IMD on the creator wallet are produced by whoever calls it, so a third party who wants no takeover makes an abandoned coin look claimed-from every 29 days for gas.
3. The coin's X link stays with the coin after a takeover (previous finding), so 'the coin's linked X account' in R2/R5 may be the ousted creator's. No funds move, Low, but it must be right before the text is pinned. Fix in the text: let R1/R5 refer to the public X announcement (coin, receiver, proposer wallet) for the first question and to the on-chain proposal only for the confirmation; define 'claimed creator fees' as transactions sent by the creator wallets; say that a takeover leaves the old X link in place until the new recipient changes it.
Read CTO-RULES.md lines 19-21, 27, 32 and 45 against CTOModule.propose (the attestation is an input: no proposal exists before the answer), SITE-COPY (banner only during the notice), D-70 (no on-site posts) and CreatorVault.claim (line 93: 'Anyone can trigger it').

State: bob's wallet is linked to @frogdao; @frogdao announced the takeover of coin C to Safe M 8 days ago; no propose has happened.

Question put to the panel: question(C, M, 'frogdao').

Under instructions 1 and 3 and R1/R5 as written the panel must check 'the proposal' and a post 'on the PondPad coin page' that do not exist and answer false.

For (2): anyone calls vault.claim(C) on day 1 and day 30 of the creator's silence; the explorer shows Claimed(C, creator, amount) and IMD arriving at the creator wallet inside R2's 30-day window although the creator sent no transaction.
11.infoAttestationVerifier: the rounded-up agreement share accepts fewer than two thirds for panels above 5,000 members (3,335 of 5,003 passes), so the R1-A4-13 fix is exact only up to that sizelaunchpad/contracts/src/AttestationVerifier.sol:98
```
                || uint256(att.agreed) * 10_000 + att.panelSize - 1 < uint256(att.panelSize) * minAgreementBps
```
The R1-A4-13 fix tests ceil(agreed * 10,000 / panelSize) >= minAgreementBps.

For 6,667 bps that equals agreed / panelSize >= 2/3 exactly while panelSize <= 5,000, but for larger panels one bps is coarser than one member: panelSize = 5,003, agreed = 3,335 (3 * 3,335 = 10,005 < 2 * 5,003 = 10,006, i.e. 66.660%) gives 3,335 * 10,000 + 5,002 = 33,355,002 >= 5,003 * 6,667 = 33,355,001, so verifyBool accepts an attestation one member short of two thirds; the same happens for many larger panels and, for other thresholds the owner may set, from a few thousand members (7,500 bps: 1,877 of 2,503). panelSize is a uint16 (up to 65,535); the oracle runs 5-100 today and the live sample had 200, so no impact today: Info.

Exact check: store the threshold as a fraction (num, den) and test agreed * den >= panelSize * num.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_belowTwoThirdsAcceptedForHugePanel (passes on this commit).

Verifier with the approved signer and defaults (minPanelSize 51, minAgreementBps 6,667).

Bool attestation with panelSize 5,003, quorum 0, agreed 3,335, valid window, signed. verifier.verifyBool(att, sig, q): expected NotEnoughAgreement; actual returns true.

The test also searches and finds 5,003 as the smallest such panel.
12.infoDeploy.s.sol: coin launches and trades are live from step 5 while the fee splitter still names the Safe as the stakers' recipient (until step 9) and launches are not paused during the runlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:266
```
            FeeSplitter.Recipients({stakers: p.safe, workers: address(d.workerFund), growth: address(d.growthFund), treasury: p.safe})
```
The broadcast is a sequence of separate transactions. After step 5 (curve, hook, factory and router initialized) anyone can call PadRouter.launchWith / buyWith: PadConfig.launchesPaused is false and nothing reads the VersionRegistry (registered in step 6). The FeeSplitter deployed in step 3 names stakers = p.safe and treasury = p.safe as placeholders; the real recipients (stakers = PadBuyer) are only set in step 9.

Launch fees (0.35 IMD each) and the protocol fee of any trade in that window sit in the splitter, and a FeeSplitter.distribute() call by anyone before step 9 sends their 40% stakers' share to the Safe instead of PadBuyer. On a quiet, unannounced deploy the window is seconds and the amount negligible: Info.

This is the only ordering gap found: every initialize is guarded by the deployer and a non-zero check, every constructor argument is deployed before use, both hook salts are mined for the right flags, $PONDPAD is above IMD, and the deployer ends with no role, no allowance and no $PONDPAD (checked by reading the script against D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1 and by the local run in test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol).

If wanted: deploy with launches paused (PadConfig.setLaunchesPaused(true) in step 3 while the deployer owns it, unpaused by the Safe after the run) or set the final splitter recipients before step 5 by deploying PadBuyer earlier.
Replay the script's steps as separate transactions (test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol runs Deploy.deploy locally).

Between the transactions of step 5 and step 9: creator calls router.launchWith(params, imd, 1e18, false, 0, 0, 0) (succeeds, 0.35 IMD to the splitter), then anyone calls splitter.distribute(): 0.14 IMD arrive at the Safe (stakers' share) and 0.0525 IMD at the Safe again (treasury).

Expected (D-57): the stakers' 40% only ever reaches PadBuyer.

Actual: it reaches the Safe for fees paid before step 9.
13.infoDeploy's airdrop check (R2-A3-7 fix) compares the claims file's own total field with 50M; it never adds up the listed amounts or ties them to the rootlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:184
```
        uint256 total = vm.parseUint(vm.parseJsonString(json, ".total"));
        require(total <= AIRDROP, "airdrop list exceeds 50M");
```
airdropRootFromClaims reads .root and .total from claims.json and requires total <= 50M. Both values are what snapshot.py wrote; the script does not sum .claims[*].amount or check that the root is the root of those claims.

An edited, truncated or mismatched file (claims summing to more than 50M, or a root from another run) passes, and the distributor is funded with 50M against a larger list (first come, first served; the last claimants get nothing; invariant 20's 'total claims <= 50M' then holds only through the balance, as R2-A3-7 said).

Info: it needs a wrong file from the team's own tooling.

Fix: read vm.parseJsonKeys(json, '.claims'), add up the amounts, require the sum to equal .total and be <= 50M; rebuilding the root from the leaves would close the rest.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_airdropTotalIsSelfReported (passes on this commit). new Deploy().airdropRootFromClaims('{"root":"0x1111...1111","total":"50000000000000000000000000","claims":{"0x...01":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]},"0x...02":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]}}}').

Expected: refused, the list adds up to 80M.

Actual: returns the root.
14.infoARCHITECTURE 5.5 describes PadConfig as holding splitter shares, the growth/stakers dial, the worker rewards address, the Relay and oracle signers; the code keeps none of them therelaunchpad/ARCHITECTURE-v1.md:309
```
- splitter shares and the growth ↔ stakers dial
- payment tokens and their routes to IMD (up to 3 hops), worker rewards address, Relay address, oracle signers

Changes go through **Timelock** (48 h for fees and launch settings, **7 days** for splitter shares, oracle signers, worker address and pool key). Changes apply only to **future** launches; each coin keeps its saved settings.
```
PadConfig (48 h timelock) holds the launch settings, the integrator share and registry, the payment routes, the guardian and the launch pause; its fee splitter and growth fund are immutable (D-78). Splitter shares and recipients live in FeeSplitter (7-day timelock), the worker rewards address in WorkerFund (7 days), the Relay in SwarmBudget and GrowthFund (48 h), oracle signers in AttestationVerifier (7 days).

Section 5.5 still lists them under PadConfig and says changes to them 'apply only to future launches', which is wrong for every one of them (they are live settings). Section 5.2 names CreatorVault.setFeeRecipient (the function is setRecipient). Auditors and the Transparency page's 'who can change what' are pointed at the wrong contract and delay.

Info: documentation only.

Fix: rewrite the PadConfig paragraph to the actual setters and owners, as THREAT-MODEL section 1 already has them.
Compare ARCHITECTURE-v1.md lines 306-312 with PadConfig.sol (setters: setIntegratorShareBps, setIntegrator, setLaunchSettings, setPaymentRoute, removePaymentRoute, setGuardian, setLaunchesPaused; no shares, relay, worker address or signer functions) and with FeeSplitter.setShares (owner = 7-day timelock), WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards, SwarmBudget.setRelay / GrowthFund.setRelay and AttestationVerifier.setSigner.

Expected: the document names where each setting lives and its delay.

Actual: it attributes them to PadConfig and to 'future launches'.

```
                ',"evidence":"panel","question":"',
```
questionHashTyped writes the question text verbatim into the canonical JSON (only '"' and '\' are refused). The one live check (test_verifier_matchesLiveImdAttestation) uses a question of letters, spaces, ',', '?' and '.'. The questions this verifier is used for contain 'ipfs://' (some JSON encoders escape '/' as '/', e.g. PHP's default), an apostrophe ("the coin's holders"), '@' and ':'.

If the oracle's canonicaliser escapes any of these, WrongQuestion is returned for every takeover and version attestation; the only remedy is the 7-day owner swapping the verifier (R1-A4-17), and if retireCouncil / retireManualActivation had already been called, takeovers and attested activations would be impossible until then.

Not a code defect that can be shown without the oracle; reported so the check is done before the fallbacks are retired (HANDOFF section 7 lists the chain-id question but not this one).
Not reproducible onchain.

Concrete check: request an oracle answer for cto.question(coin, coin, 'frogdao') (contains 'ipfs://', "coin's", '@', ':') and assert verifier.questionHash(q, att.chainId, att.fromBlock, att.toBlock) == att.questionHash.

If the oracle escapes '/', the live hash is keccak256 of '...rules at ipfs://...' and verifyBool reverts WrongQuestion for the exact question the contract builds.

```
    function test_cto_councilCantSquatTheSlot() public {
```
Reviewing the suite against the state machine: (a) _propose lets an attested proposal replace a pending council proposal in any state; the only test replaces an uncontested one, so the reset of contested, confirmed, contestedAt, _proposerX and _recipientCodehash for a contested-and-confirmed council proposal in its execution window is untested (code reads correct: the whole struct and both mappings are overwritten).

(b) confirm is accepted up to expiresAt, so a confirmation can land during the 3-day execution window; untested. (c) cancel has no councilRetired check, so the council can still cancel (and start a 90-day cooldown on) its own pending proposals after retirement; harmless, untested.

(d) Deploy._create2 reuse is tested only for $PONDPAD (DeployCreate2.t.sol), not for a hook pre-deployed at its mined salt (the deployer_ constructor argument is what keeps initialize with the deployer). (e) SocialRegistry uses SignatureCheckerLib, so a contract verifier (ERC-1271) is supported but never exercised. None showed a defect on reading; listed so the regression suite covers them.
Each item is a missing test, not a failing input. Example for (a): council proposes for coin C at P; creator contests at P+1 day; council confirmByCouncil at P+2 days; at P+14 days (execution window open) bob submits an attested proposal: expected pendingOf(C) has contested = false, confirmed = false, contestedAt = 0, byCouncil = false, proposerXOf(C) = 'frogdao' and confirmQuestion reverts NotContested until a new contest.

#1212Audit flowClaude5 findings · 2 low
Review complete. The findings file is written and validated.

Outcome: no Critical or High in area A4. The file .imd-findings.json holds 2 Low and 3 Info findings, each with a concrete reproduction. Two were confirmed with Foundry tests in test/scratch/ (not kept); all 138 local tests pass on the commit.

Findings

Low, CreatorVault holder stream. The R2-A4-3 fix ("a top-up never lowers the rate") works per coin, not per lump. A smaller lump funded while a larger one is still draining inherits the larger rate. Test: 700 IMD funded into a running 70,000 IMD stream is fully released 26 hours later, not over ~7 days. Anyone can time claim, sweepToHolders or fundHolders to cause it. No funds leave the stream, but invariant 6's "over ~7 days" holds only for the first or larger lump.

Low, SocialRegistry revocation. unlinkWallet and unlink do not consume the nonce, so a kept, unsubmitted voucher re-links a revoked handle until its deadline. Same shape as R1-A3-4. Verified for both wallet and coin links.

Info, timelocks. OpenZeppelin updateDelay lets the Safe remove either delay after one delay period. A trust assumption to document, not a bypass.

Info, oracle question format. The live hash check covers a question without /, ', @, :; real takeover questions contain all of them. Recommend one live check on a real question text before retiring the fallbacks.

Info, test gaps. Attested replacement of a contested-and-confirmed council proposal, confirm inside the execution window, cancel after retirement, CREATE2 reuse for hooks, ERC-1271 verifier.

Checked and found correct

Invariants 16, 17, 18, 19, 22 in full, plus the governance-facing parts of 5, 6 and 8.

Every earlier A4 fix (R1-A4-2 through 14, R2-A4-1 through 7, R2-A1-1/2): correct and complete, except the new path above from R2-A4-3.

Attestation binding: question text covers coin, recipient, handle, chain id and rules link; the window and evidence chain are inside the signed hash; request ids are single-use per consumer. Handle and job-id character sets and the rules-link check make JSON injection impossible.

CTO state machine edges at every window boundary, one-way retirement, holders routing being final, execute refused inside an unlock and re-checking recipient code.

Deploy.s.sol: every constructor argument, owner, role and amount matches D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1; both hooks self-validate their flag bits; nothing stays with the deployer; no ordering bug.

lowHolder stream: a lump funded while a larger earlier lump is still streaming inherits the larger rate and is paid out in hours, not ~7 days (new path from the R2-A4-3 fix)launchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:146
R2-A4-3 was fixed by never lowering a running stream's rate. The rate is per coin, not per lump, so the rule also works the other way: while a big lump L1 is still draining (remaining != 0), any new lump L2 < L1 added by fundHolders, claim(coin) (recipient = coin) or SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders keeps L1's rate = ceil(L1 / 7 days) and L2 is released at that rate, i.e. fully within L2/L1 * 7 days of funding.

All three funding paths are permissionless, so anyone (including a one-block capturer who front-runs the keeper's daily releaseToHolders) can time when L2 lands so that it is paid out in one or two releases. Invariant 6 / D-78 promise that holder-routed lumps are released "over ~7 days"; that holds only for the first lump or for lumps at least as large as the one before them.

Per release the absolute amount is still bounded by the earlier lump's daily share, so no extra funds leave the stream; the loss is one of timing: holders who buy during the days L2 should have been streaming receive none of it, and the compressed payout is easier to capture with a short-held position than a 7-day stream.

Fix: keep per-lump accounting (each funding opens its own 7-day sub-stream, releases sum over them), or at least bound the carried rate: rate = min(oldRate, ceil(remaining / HOLDER_STREAM_PERIOD) + ceil(amount / HOLDER_STREAM_PERIOD))-style, so a smaller lump never drains faster than its own 7-day rate plus the old remainder's.
Setup: a coin whose fees go to holders (creator vault.setRecipient(coin, coin) or a holders takeover).

Fund L1 = 70,000 IMD with fundHolders at t0 (rate = 10,000 IMD/day).

Call releaseToHolders once a day (the keeper's cadence).

At t0 + 6 days, remaining is 10,000; now anyone calls fundHolders(coin, 700e18) (or claim(coin) / sweepToHolders(coin) carrying 700 IMD).

Observed: holderStreamOf(coin).ratePerSecond is unchanged (10,000/day), remaining = 10,700.

At t0 + 7 days releaseToHolders pays 10,000 (rest of L1), leaving 700.

At t0 + 7 days + 2 hours releaseToHolders pays the whole 700: L2 is fully released 26 hours after it was funded.

Expected: L2 streams over ~7 days (about 100 IMD/day), so at t0 + 7 days + 2 hours roughly 600 IMD of it should still be owed.

Verified with a Foundry test on this commit (test/scratch/A4Scratch.t.sol: test_stream_smallLumpInheritsBigLumpRate logs released = 699.99 IMD, remaining = 0).
lowSocialRegistry: revoking a link (unlinkWallet / unlink by the X link key or the owner) does not consume the nonce, so a kept, unsubmitted voucher restores the revoked link until its deadlinelaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:107
linkWallet and link bind vouchers to a per-wallet / per-coin nonce that only those two functions increment. unlinkWallet(account) and unlink(coin), the revocation paths of the X link service key and the 48 h timelock (THREAT-MODEL: the key 'can link handles' and 'the verifier or the owner can revoke a link'), leave the nonce untouched.

A wallet that holds a second voucher for the current nonce (asked for and not submitted, e.g. a re-link request after a browser reload, or a voucher the service issued before it learned the X account was sold or hijacked) can re-link the same handle the moment it is revoked, with no new OAuth, until the voucher's deadline. For wallets this re-enables a revoked CTO proposer (propose needs a non-empty walletHandle); for coins it restores a revoked badge.

Same shape as R1-A3-4 (AirdropDistributor), fixed there by consuming the nonce on the direct path.

Fix: increment walletNonces[account] in unlinkWallet and nonces[coin] in unlink (or only when the caller is not the account / recipient itself), so a revocation voids every voucher issued before it.

Bob links wallet to @frogdao with voucher V0 (nonce 0, deadline T0 + 30 days): linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V0) -> walletHandle(bob) = 'frogdao'.

Bob also holds V1, a valid service voucher for ('frogdao', nonce 1, same deadline) that he never submitted.

The X link key calls unlinkWallet(bob): walletHandle(bob) = ''.

Bob calls linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V1). Observed: succeeds, walletHandle(bob) = 'frogdao' again; walletNonces(bob) was still 1 after the revocation. Expected: the revocation stands until the service issues a new voucher (V1 rejected as BadVoucher). Same with link / unlink: creator links coin C with voucher (nonce 0), keeps a nonce-1 voucher, the owner (48 h timelock) calls unlink(C), creator re-links with the kept voucher and badgeOf(C) shows the handle again. Both verified with Foundry tests on this commit (test/scratch/A4Scratch.t.sol: test_social_revokedWalletRelinksWithStaleVoucher, test_social_revokedCoinRelinksWithStaleVoucher).

infoBoth timelocks can remove their own delay: the Safe can schedule TimelockController.updateDelay(0) and, one delay later, every 48 h / 7-day power becomes immediate (trust assumption, not a bypass)launchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
OpenZeppelin's TimelockController lets the timelock itself change minDelay (updateDelay requires msg.sender == the timelock, i.e. a scheduled operation), and the constructor sets no floor. D-57 / THREAT-MODEL section 1 describe the 48 h and 7-day delays as fixed properties of the owners ('Same as the Safe, delayed'), and D-40 relies on the 7-day window as the review period for a market migration approval and for oracle signer changes.

In the code the delay is only protected by itself: one proposal, visible 7 days ahead on the Transparency page, removes it for good. This is standard OZ behaviour and within the Safe's listed powers; reported so it is documented as a trust assumption (the review window exists only as long as the Safe never proposes to shorten it), or so a floor is added if the owners want the delays to be hard.
On the deployed slowTimelock (minDelay = 7 days, proposer = Safe, executor = anyone): Safe calls schedule(slowTimelock, 0, abi.encodeCall(TimelockController.updateDelay, (0)), 0, salt, 7 days); after 7 days anyone calls execute(...).

Observed: getMinDelay() = 0; from then on schedule(..., 0) + execute in the same block work for FeeSplitter.setShares, AttestationVerifier.setSigner, CTOModule.setVerifier, MarketController.approveMigration, StakedPONDPAD.setPaused, etc. Expected per D-57 wording: a 7-day delay on every such change.

Same for the 48 h timelock.

questionHashTyped assumes the oracle's canonical JSON writes the question text verbatim (only '"' and '\' are refused by checkQuestionText). The one live check (test_verifier_matchesLiveImdAttestation) uses a question made of letters, spaces, ',', '?' and '.'. The questions this verifier is actually used for contain 'ipfs://' (the rules link, '/' is escaped as '/' by several JSON encoders, e.g. PHP's default), an apostrophe ("the coin's holders"), '@' and ':'.

If the oracle's encoder escapes any of these, WrongQuestion is returned for every takeover and version attestation forever; the only remedy is the 7-day owner swapping the verifier (R1-A4-17), and if retireCouncil / retireManualActivation had already been called, takeovers and attested activations would be impossible until then.

No code defect can be shown without the oracle; reported as a pre-launch check: obtain one live attestation for an actual CTOModule.question(...) text on chain 4663 and keep that check in the suite before retiring the fallbacks (HANDOFF section 7 lists the chain-id question but not this one).
Not reproducible onchain.

Concrete check: request an oracle answer for cto.question(coin, coin, "frogdao") (contains 'ipfs://', "coin's", '@', ':') and assert verifier.questionHash(q, att.chainId, att.fromBlock, att.toBlock) == att.questionHash.

Review complete. The findings file is written and validated (7 findings; paths, lines and snippets match the tree; the High carries a Foundry proof that fails on the current code and passes with either of two candidate fixes I tried in scratch copies).

Summary

Area A4 covered in depth (every listed file read fully, calls followed into PadToken, PadHook, PadRouter/PaymentSwapper, PadFactory, FeeLib, LiquidityReserve, MarketController, TimelockController 5.0.2). Existing suite: Governance tests pass; DeployForkTest run against live Robinhood state passes; the deploy script's chain constants (PM, IMD, USDG, ETH/USDG hook, both route pools, CREATE2 factory) verified on-chain; the live IMD token is a stock OZ v5 ERC-20 (no blocklist/pause), so the push payment in ctoSetRecipient cannot be blocked by a hostile old recipient.

Invariants checked: 16 (attestation binding: signer, rebuilt hash, panel/agreement incl. exact ⅔, window, once — no reuse across coin/recipient/handle/version/consumer; handles, job ids and the rules link are charset-restricted, so no JSON injection), 17 (CTO state machine edges, contest/confirm/execute/cancel ordering, cooldown, code re-check, holders finality, one-way retirement), 18, 19 (voucher nonces/deadlines), 22 (every owner/role/amount in Deploy.s.sol matches D-57; nothing left with the deployer; hook flags and the $PONDPAD > IMD mining; CREATE2 pre-deployment is harmless), and 6 for holder streams — broken.

Findings (.imd-findings.json):

High — R1-A4-1 fix incomplete: one day after a lump joins the holder stream, a wallet with no position buys → releaseToHolders → claim → sells in one block and keeps most of the day's share. In the project's own regression scenario Carol nets +311 IMD per day, 62% of a 3,503 IMD lump over the week, while the standing holder gets 20%. Proof test/scratch/HolderStreamOneBlock.t.sol fails now (1311.47 > 1000) and passes with a one-hour release cap or with the curve releasing before the buyer's tokens arrive (both verified).

Low — both timelocks can updateDelay(0) via one delayed self-call; afterwards every 48 h / 7-day power (incl. the immutable sinkAdmin's, R1-A2-5) is immediate.

Low — valid "false" answers leave no trace and the evidence chain/window are free, so one takeover can be re-asked to fresh panels until one says yes (9 unanimous refusals + one 50-of-75 "yes" confirms).

Low — after an owner rollback, an attested activation of a skipped older version moves currentVersion (R1-A4-6 residual).

Low — a coin's X badge survives a takeover; after a holders takeover only the link key/48 h timelock can clear the ousted creator's verified handle.

Info — the airdrop deploy check trusts the file's own total.

Info — ARCHITECTURE §5.5 attributes splitter shares, relay, worker address and oracle signers to PadConfig.

Not found: attestation reuse, question-hash collisions, ordering bugs in Deploy, PadConfig bound/guardian issues. Limitation: no stateful fuzz of CTOModule was run (its transitions were checked by hand); oracle-side behaviour (whether identical questions get fresh panels) is assumed from D-48's flat per-question fee.

highR1-A4-1 fix incomplete: a wallet with no position still takes most of a holder lump with a one-block buy, releaseToHolders, claim, sell, one day's share at a time (62% of the lump in the fix's own reglaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:128
CreatorVault's holder stream pays out ratePerSecond x min(elapsed, 1 day) in a single releaseToHolders call, and PadToken.distribute() credits that amount to whoever holds the coin at that instant. releaseToHolders is permissionless and runs outside any unlock, so the caller picks the instant: right after its own buy. One day after a lump joins the stream a seventh of it is due at once, and a wallet with no position buys, releases, claims its dividend and sells in one block. The R1-A4-1 fix (D-78) cut one capture from the whole lump to one day's share, but the capture repeats every day: the attacker's own release restarts the clock, and the keeper only releases daily (HANDOFF section 6), so the attacker goes first each day. No flash loan, no unlock and no price exposure are needed, only capital for one block.

Numbers, in the project's own regression scenario (test_cto_holderLumpCantBeCapturedInOneBlock: coin with 3% tax, Alice holds after a 100 IMD buy, 2,000 IMD creator fees + 1,500 IMD swarm budget routed to holders; the stream holds 3,503.5 IMD, 500.5 IMD a day). One day later Carol, with no position, buys with 1,000 IMD (79.8% of the eligible supply for one block), calls releaseToHolders (500.5 IMD released), claims 399.45 IMD and sells back. She paid about 88 IMD in fees (4.5% each way) and ends the block 311.47 IMD up; Alice, the standing holder, gets 101.05 IMD of that day's 500.5. Repeated on each of the 7 days Carol nets 2,180.3 IMD, 62% of the lump, and Alice, who held the whole week, receives 707.4 IMD (20%). The regression test passes only because it tries the block in which the stream is funded, when nothing is releasable yet.

General condition: with D the amount releasable (up to 1/7 of the stream), E the value of the eligible float, P the attacker's position and f the coin's fee (1.5% + tax), the profit is DP/(E+P) - 2fP, positive whenever D > 2f*E. So it pays on any holder-routed coin whose daily release exceeds 3% to 9% of its float's value: thin-float coins after a swarm budget sweep or a weekly claim (the keeper claims and sweeps weekly). Since D-79 (R2-A4-3) a top-up never lowers the rate, so a later lump that joins while an older stream still runs is released at the older, higher rate (checked: 400 IMD added on day 6.5 of a 3,500 IMD stream is paid at 500 IMD a day, most of it in the next release), which makes later lumps capturable in one or two releases.

This breaks what the fix was for: invariant 6 (dividends can't be captured within one block), ARCHITECTURE section 5.2 (released over about 7 days 'so nobody can buy just before a lump is paid, collect a share and sell'), CTO-RULES ('spread over about 7 days so nobody can buy in just before a payout') and the regression test's own claim ('no profit from a one-block position'). The 'at most one day's share per release' bound limits the size of one capture, not the capture.

Fix, keeping the design: credit the stream before a buyer's tokens arrive, as the holder tax already is ('holders are credited before the buyer receives tokens'): have PadRouter.buyWith (or BondingCurve.buy before coin.safeTransfer) call creatorVault.releaseToHolders(coin) first, and make one release worth less than a round trip's fees for buys that bypass the router after graduation, e.g. MAX_RELEASE_GAP of an hour or less with the keeper and router trades poking it, or by making tokens that arrived in the current block ineligible for a release (as StakedPONDPAD.heldShares does). Extend the regression test to later days. The attached test passes with either change.
Setup as in test_cto_holderLumpCantBeCapturedInOneBlock: launch FROG with CoinFees(300, 5000, 0, 5000); at T0+1h Alice buys with 100 IMD; credit 2,000 IMD to CreatorVault and 1,500 IMD to SwarmBudget for the coin; creator calls vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); vault.claim(coin); budget.sweepToHolders(coin) (holderStreamOf(coin).remaining = 3,503.5 IMD, rate 500.5 IMD/day).

Warp to T0+1h+1 day.

Carol (1,000 IMD, no coin) in one block: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 1000e18, ...), vault.releaseToHolders(coin) (returns 500.5 IMD), PadToken(coin).claim() (399.445983379501448889 IMD), router.sellFor(all).

Expected (invariant 6, regression test's assertion): Carol's IMD balance <= 1,000 IMD.

Actual: 1,311.470983379501448889 IMD; Alice's dividend for that day is 101.054016620498631110 IMD. test/scratch/HolderStreamOneBlock.t.sol fails with 'no profit from a one-block position: 1311470983379501448889 > 1000000000000000000000'.

Repeating the same block on days 1..7 gives Carol +311.47 IMD each day, 2,180.296883656509695290 IMD in all, against 707.378116343490304709 IMD for Alice.
lowBoth timelocks can switch off their own delay: one scheduled updateDelay(0) makes every later 48 h / 7-day change immediate, including the sinkAdmin powers R1-A2-5 fixed in placelaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
Deploy.s.sol creates two stock OpenZeppelin TimelockControllers (v5.0.2). TimelockController.updateDelay(newDelay) has no floor and is callable by the timelock itself, and each timelock is its own role admin. The Safe, the only proposer, can therefore schedule timelock.updateDelay(0) with the timelock as target; after one wait (48 h or 7 days) anyone executes it, and from then on schedule(..., delay 0) and execute run in the same transaction. Every later change by that timelock is immediate.

THREAT-MODEL section 1 bounds the Safe by these delays ('Same as the Safe, delayed'; D-57: '48 h and 7 days'), and several protections are only the delay: oracle signer changes (AttestationVerifier.setSigner, the 7-day owner power that R1-A4-17's acceptance rests on), CTOModule.setVerifier / setCouncil, FeeSplitter shares and recipients, StakedPONDPAD pauses, and MarketController.sinkAdmin (burn sink, rewards recipient, approveMigration). R1-A2-5 was fixed by making sinkAdmin immutable so the 7-day timelock 'can't hand the role on' and the D-40 review window stays; with updateDelay(0) the same address acts with no window, so that fix is bypassed in substance. Solady's transferOwnership gives the same result one contract at a time for the six 7-day-owned contracts.

Low: the first step is itself visible for the full delay, and it needs the Safe. But after it nothing warns holders before, for example, a signer is approved or a migration hook is approved and run in one transaction.

Fix: deploy a small TimelockController subclass whose updateDelay reverts or enforces a floor (newDelay >= the delay it was created with), and note in THREAT-MODEL that role grants on the timelock are themselves delayed changes; if the 7-day review of owner powers must hold per contract, block ownership transfers there as was done for sinkAdmin.
Create the 7-day timelock exactly as Deploy.s.sol does: new TimelockController(7 days, [safe], [address(0)], address(0)); AttestationVerifier owned by it.

Safe: slow.schedule(address(slow), 0, abi.encodeCall(TimelockController.updateDelay, (0)), 0, 0, 7 days).

Warp 7 days; anyone: slow.execute(same). getMinDelay() == 0.

Then in one transaction the Safe calls slow.schedule(verifier, 0, abi.encodeCall(AttestationVerifier.setSigner, (rogue, true)), 0, 0, 0) and anyone calls slow.execute(same): verifier.isSigner(rogue) == true with no waiting period.

Expected (D-57, THREAT-MODEL section 1, R1-A2-5): every change by this timelock waits 7 days.

Actual: only the first one does.

Checked with a Foundry test (test_timelock_updateDelayRemovesTheWindow passes on this code, asserting the zero-delay change).
lowA refused takeover leaves no trace: valid 'false' answers can't be recorded and the evidence chain and window are free, so one takeover can be put to fresh panels until one says yeslaunchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:292
CTOModule.propose and confirm revert AnswerNo on a valid 'false' attestation, which also rolls back usedRequest, so a refusal changes nothing onchain. The question text is fixed per takeover, but AttestationVerifier.verifyBool rebuilds the question hash from the attestation's own chainId, fromBlock and toBlock (only fromBlock <= toBlock is checked, R2-A4-4), so the same text can be submitted to the oracle as many distinct questions as the requester likes (a flat 0.5 IMD each, D-48), each answered by a fresh panel. The module accepts the first 'true' and never learns of the refusals. The bar of invariant 16 and 17 (panel >= 51 or >= 75, agreed >= 2/3) is then a bar on the best of N panels, not on one.

This matters most for a contested takeover, where the larger panel is the creator's only protection: nine unanimous 100-member 'false' answers issued after the contest do not stop a tenth panel's 50-of-75 'true' from confirming it. If members of a 75 panel vote true independently with probability 0.6 the bar is met about 14% of the time (5 tries for an even chance, 2.5 IMD); at 0.55 about 2% (35 tries, 17.5 IMD); for the first answer at 34 of 51 a coin-flip panel passes about 1.3% of the time (55 tries, 27.5 IMD). The prize is all future creator fees of the coin, and since D-79 a holders takeover is final.

It needs panel variance, and the oracle is trusted for its answer, so Low. It is the consequence that makes the unpinned evidence frame (R2-A4-4, pin deferred to the IMD dev) matter, and the pin alone doesn't close it if the oracle answers a repeated question again.

Fix: let anyone submit a valid 'false'. In confirm, a 'false' from a panel >= 75 issued after the contest should end the takeover (delete the pending proposal). In propose, record the refusal for (coin, new recipient, handle) and refuse that proposal for a period. And pin chainId and the window once the IMD dev confirms, so one takeover is one question hash.
Approved signer; Bob (X: frogdao) proposes coin -> newOwner at P with a valid 'true'; the creator contests at P+1h; q = cto.confirmQuestion(coin, newOwner, 'frogdao').

Nine attestations for q with answer false, panelSize 100, quorum 67, agreed 100, issuedAt P+2h, windows (1000+i, 2000+i): each cto.confirm(coin, no, sig) reverts AnswerNo and usedRequest(no.requestId) stays false.

A tenth for q with window (5000, 6000), answer true, panelSize 75, quorum 50, agreed 50, issuedAt P+3h: cto.confirm succeeds; at P+10 days cto.execute(coin) moves the fees to newOwner.

Expected: a larger panel's 'false' after the contest ends the takeover, or at least can be put on record against it.

Actual: nine refusals are invisible and the tenth answer decides.

Checked with a Foundry test (test_cto_refusalsLeaveNoTrace passes on this code, asserting the takeover executes).
lowR1-A4-6 fix incomplete: after an owner rollback, an attested activation of a skipped older version moves currentVersion againlaunchpad/contracts/src/VersionRegistry.sol:140
VersionRegistry._activate moves currentVersion whenever version > currentVersion. That keeps an older activation from moving new launches back only while currentVersion is the newest activated version. After the owner rolls back with setCurrent (say from 3 to 1), currentVersion sits below versions that were registered but never activated (2). Anyone holding a valid audit 'yes' for version 2 then calls activate(2, ...) and currentVersion becomes 2: a version older than the newest activated one, which the owner did not choose, and undoing it takes the 7-day timelock. That is the R1-A4-6 outcome ('a valid audit attestation for an older never-activated version rolls new launches back to it for up to 7 days') in the one state where the owner has just said which version to use; invariant 18 says only the owner rolls back. The regression test test_versions_olderActivationDoesNotRollBack covers only currentVersion == newest.

Low: the registry gates nothing onchain (invariant 18), so the effect is on what the site and integrators read from current().

Fix: track the highest version that has ever been current (or activated) and auto-advance only above it, e.g. if (version > highestActivated) { highestActivated = version; currentVersion = version; }.
Register versions 1, 2 and 3. activateManually(1), activateManually(3): currentVersion == 3.

Owner: setCurrent(1) (rollback).

With an approved signer, build a 'true' attestation for versions.question(2, '6f1d2c3a-1111-4222-8333-944455556666'); any wallet calls versions.activate(2, job, att, sig).

Expected (R1-A4-6 fix, invariant 18): currentVersion stays 1, the owner's choice.

Actual: currentVersion == 2.

Checked with a Foundry test (test_versions_rollbackThenOlderActivation passes on this code, asserting currentVersion == 2).
lowA coin's X link survives a change of fee recipient: after a takeover the ousted creator's X account is still the coin's verified handle, and after a holders takeover nobody the takeover empowers can rlaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:123
SocialRegistry.link is only for the coin's fee recipient, and the voucher binds the linking account, but the registry stores only the handle hash. handleOf and badgeOf keep returning it after CreatorVault.setRecipient or ctoSetRecipient, so the badge says 'this coin's verified X account' for an account the current recipient never linked.

Takeovers exist for creators who abandoned or rugged a coin (CTO-RULES R2). After one executes, the coin page still shows the ousted creator's X account with the verified badge. A multisig recipient can call unlink if it knows to. After a takeover to holders the recipient is the coin contract, which can't call anything, so only the X link key or the 48 h timelock can clear the link. No funds move, but a rugger keeps a PondPad-verified voice for the coin (for example to post a 'migration' address) at the moment the community has just removed them.

Fix: store the account that linked the handle and have badgeOf report no handle once creatorVault.recipientOf(coin) is no longer that account (or let anyone unlink a coin whose recipient changed since the link).
Creator links handle hash keccak256('ruggedcreator') to the coin with a voucher from the X link key (social.link).

At coin age 30 days the council proposes cto.proposeByCouncil(coin, coin, ...)

(fees to holders; the attested path behaves the same); 7 days later anyone calls cto.execute(coin): vault.recipientOf(coin) == coin.

Expected: the coin no longer shows the ousted creator's account as verified.

Actual: social.badgeOf(coin) still returns (keccak256('ruggedcreator'), false); unlink(coin) reverts Unauthorized for everyone except the X link key and the 48 h timelock.

Checked with a Foundry test (test_social_badgeSurvivesTakeover passes on this code, asserting the stale badge).
infoDeploy's airdrop check (R2-A3-7 fix) compares the claims file's own total field with 50M; it never adds up the listed amounts or ties them to the rootlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:182
airdropRootFromClaims reads .root and .total from claims.json and requires total <= 50M. Both values are what snapshot.py wrote; the script does not sum .claims[*].amount or check that the root is the root of those claims. snapshot.py already asserts its own total, so the script re-reads a number the tool produced: an edited, truncated or mismatched file (claims summing to more than 50M, or a root from another run) passes, and the distributor is then funded with 50M against a larger list (first come, first served; the last claimants get nothing, invariant 20's 'total claims <= 50M' holding only through the balance, as R2-A3-7 said).

Info: it needs a wrong file from the team's own tooling. Fix: in the script, read vm.parseJsonKeys(json, '.claims'), add up the amounts, and require the sum to equal .total and be <= 50M; rebuilding the root from the leaves would close the rest.
Call new Deploy().airdropRootFromClaims on {"root":"0x1111...1111","total":"50000000000000000000000000","claims":{"0x...01":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]},"0x...02":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]}}}.

Expected: refused, the list adds up to 80M.

Actual: returns the root (test_deploy_airdropTotalIsSelfReported passes on this code).
infoARCHITECTURE section 5.5 describes PadConfig as holding splitter shares, the growth/stakers dial, the worker rewards address, the Relay and oracle signers; the code keeps none of them therelaunchpad/ARCHITECTURE-v1.md:309
PadConfig (the 48 h timelock's) holds the launch settings, the integrator share and registry, the payment routes, the guardian and the launch pause; its fee splitter and growth fund are immutable (D-78). Splitter shares and recipients live in FeeSplitter (7-day timelock, IMD and $PONDPAD since D-38), the worker rewards address in WorkerFund (7 days), the Relay in SwarmBudget and GrowthFund (48 h), oracle signers in AttestationVerifier (7 days).

Section 5.5 still lists them under PadConfig and says changes to them 'apply only to future launches', which is wrong for every one of them (they are live settings). Section 5.2 names CreatorVault.setFeeRecipient (the function is setRecipient) and 5.3 says FeeSplitter reads its shares from PadConfig. Auditors and the Transparency page's 'who can change what' are pointed at the wrong contract and the wrong delay.

Info: documentation only.

Fix: rewrite the PadConfig paragraph to the actual setters and owners, as THREAT-MODEL section 1 already has them.
Compare ARCHITECTURE-v1.md lines 306-312 with PadConfig.sol (setters: setIntegratorShareBps, setIntegrator, setLaunchSettings, setPaymentRoute, removePaymentRoute, setGuardian, setLaunchesPaused; no shares, relay, worker address or signer functions) and with FeeSplitter.setShares (owner = 7-day timelock), WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards, SwarmBudget.setRelay / GrowthFund.setRelay and AttestationVerifier.setSigner.

Expected: the document names where each setting lives and its delay.

Actual: it attributes them to PadConfig and to 'future launches'.

highHolder stream: one releaseToHolders still pays a whole day's share (1/7 of a lump) to whoever holds in that block, so a wallet with no position buys, releases, claims and sells in one block and keeps launchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:128
R1-A4-1 (High) was fixed by sending holder-routed lumps (creator fees claimed to the coin, the swept swarm budget) through CreatorVault's holder stream. The stream changes the size of each payment, not who receives it. releaseToHolders is permissionless, pays ratePerSecond x min(elapsed, 1 day) in one transfer (lines 128-130, 157-167) and calls PadToken.distribute(), which credits the whole amount to the balances of that instant with no hold and no time weighting. Everything that accrued since the last release, up to a full day (1/7 of the lump at the keeper's documented daily cadence, HANDOFF section 6), is therefore still credited 'to whoever holds at an instant the caller picks', which is the R1 defect. A wallet with no position waits until about a day has accrued (or front-runs the keeper's daily call) and then, in one block: PadRouter.buyWith, vault.releaseToHolders, PadToken.claim, PadRouter.sellFor. It carries no price risk, pays only the round-trip fee and can repeat on each of the 7 days. It is profitable whenever its share of one day's release exceeds the round-trip fee: the fix moved the R1 break-even by a factor of 7, it did not close the path. Lumps that large relative to the float are the normal state of the coins this feature exists for: an abandoned coin whose float was sold down and whose swarm budget was never spent. Measured on this commit with the attached test.

The project's own R1-A4-1 regression scenario (test_cto_holderLumpCantBeCapturedInOneBlock: 3% tax coin, alice holds 100 IMD worth, 2,000 IMD of creator fees and 1,500 IMD of swarm budget routed to holders) with one change, carol acts one day after the stream is funded: the call releases 500.5 IMD, carol's one-block position takes 399.45 IMD (79.8%), the real holder gets 101.05 IMD, and carol ends +311.47 IMD after fees. Repeated on each of the 7 days it takes 2,796 of the 3,503.5 IMD (net +2,180 IMD) without ever holding across a block. The project's test passes only because it buys in the block the stream is funded, when nothing is releasable yet.

A graduated coin whose holders sold 55% back into the pool (price about -90%, 360M tokens still held by 22 wallets) with a 1,500 IMD unspent swarm budget swept to holders: one release is 221.9 IMD; a 400 IMD one-block position takes 88.8 IMD of it (40%) and ends +53.6 IMD after 4.5% fees each way, again every day. Two details widen it: (a) the R2-A4-3 fix keeps the old rate while a stream runs (line 146), so a later lump rides an earlier lump's rate: 900 IMD added on day 6 of a 7,000 IMD stream is paid out in full by one release two days later (rate still 1,000 IMD a day) instead of over about 7 days; (b) claim(coin) and sweepToHolders(coin) are permissionless, so the taker also chooses when a lump enters the stream. This contradicts invariant 6 ('Dividends ... can't be captured ... within one block'; the stream is the mechanism that invariant names), ARCHITECTURE 5.2 ('so nobody can buy just before a lump is paid, collect a share and sell') and CTO-RULES ('spread over about 7 days so nobody can buy in just before a payout'). The loss is bounded by the routed lump and needs the day's share to beat the round-trip fee, so healthy coins with a large float are not affected; rated High because it is the residual of a High, breaks invariant 6 as written and pays under the conditions takeovers to holders are meant for. The staking analogue was accepted in writing (R1-A3-3), this one was not, and unlike staking it needs no hold at all. Fix that keeps D-52 and D-78: make what a release pays independent of the instant the caller picks. Either release what the stream owes before a buyer receives tokens (BondingCurve.buy and the router's pool buy call the vault first, the way the holder tax is credited before the buyer gets tokens), so accrued time always goes to the holders who were there; or, without touching the trade path, shrink MAX_RELEASE_GAP so one call pays a slice well under the fee break-even and

cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/HolderStreamOneBlockCapture.t.sol -vv.

Test 1: launch a coin with CoinFees(300, 5000, 0, 5000); alice buys 100 IMD; credit 2,000 IMD to vault.balanceOf[coin] and 1,500 IMD to budget.balanceOf[coin] (as the curve does); creator calls vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); vault.claim(coin); budget.sweepToHolders(coin) (stream 3,503.5 IMD, 500.5 IMD a day).

Warp 1 day. carol (no tokens), in one block: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 1_000e18, ...), vault.releaseToHolders(coin), PadToken(coin).claim(), router.sellFor(coin, imd, all).

Expected (invariant 6, and the project's own assertion 'no profit from a one-block position'): carol's IMD after <= before.

Actual: 1,000,311.47 after against 1,000,000 before; released 500.5, carol's dividend 399.45, alice's 101.05.

Test 2: same coin filled to graduation by 22 wallets of 100 IMD, each sells 55% back; 1,500 IMD credited to the swarm budget; vault.claim (to the creator), setRecipient(coin, coin), sweepToHolders; warp 1 day; carol's one-block position of 400 IMD: released 221.92, dividend 88.80, balance 1,000,053.61 against 1,000,000.

Both tests fail with 'no profit from a one-block position' and pass when MAX_RELEASE_GAP is 1 hour (checked on a copy of the vault in test/scratch).
lowBoth timelocks can remove their own delay with one delayed self-call (OpenZeppelin updateDelay), after which every '7-day' and '48 h' power, including the MarketController.sinkAdmin that D-79 fixed atlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
Deploy.s.sol creates the two timelocks as stock OpenZeppelin 5.0.2 TimelockControllers with admin = address(0). That makes each timelock its own DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE holder, and TimelockController.updateDelay (callable only by the timelock itself, i.e. through one of its own operations) has no lower bound.

The Safe, the only proposer, schedules updateDelay(0) on the 7-day timelock with target = the timelock; 7 days later anyone executes it; getMinDelay() is then 0 and from that block on the Safe schedules and executes in the same transaction, with no notice, everything that D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1 put behind 7 days: oracle signers and thresholds (AttestationVerifier), CTOModule.setVerifier / setCouncil / retireCouncil, VersionRegistry.setVerifier / setCurrent, FeeSplitter shares and recipients, StakedPONDPAD powers, WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards and MarketController.approveMigration / setBurnSink / setRewardsRecipient.

The same one-step removal works on the 48 h timelock (PadConfig routes and settings, GrowthFund caps and relay, RewardDripper, PadBuyer, AirdropDistributor, MarketController policy and closeBackstop, SwarmBudget relay). The self-admin role also lets a timelock grant PROPOSER_ROLE to any address or revoke the Safe's CANCELLER_ROLE through the same path.

R1-A2-5 was rated Low and fixed by making sinkAdmin immutable so that 'the 7-day timelock can't hand the sink and migration-approval powers to an undelayed address' (THREAT-MODEL section 1, D-79); the address is fixed, but its delay is not, so the review window D-40 relies on (holders read the approved hook's code during the 7 days) can still be reduced to zero by one visible operation, after which approveMigration + migrate (the Safe is migrator) move the whole $PONDPAD position into a hook nobody had time to read.

ARCHITECTURE 5.6 lists no 'change the delay' power; D-57 says 'no admin'. The removal itself is delayed and visible on the Transparency page (as a call to the timelock itself, which that page decodes against the owned contracts' ABIs only), which is why this stays Low like R1-A2-5.

Fix that keeps D-57: deploy a thin subclass whose updateDelay reverts or refuses a delay below the deploy-time minimum (updateDelay is virtual in OZ 5.0.2; the attached test passes with such a subclass in the script, checked on a copy in test/scratch), and consider renouncing the timelock's own DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE after deploy if role changes are not wanted either.

Invariant 22 checked (owners and roles otherwise match D-57; nothing is left with the deployer; the deploy script runs to completion on a local chain and on a Robinhood fork).
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol -vv (runs Deploy.deploy locally with mainnet delays and launch settings).

Safe calls slowTimelock.schedule(slowTimelock, 0, abi.encodeCall(updateDelay, (0)), 0, 0, 7 days); after 7 days anyone calls slowTimelock.execute(same).

Then, in one transaction, Safe calls schedule(controller, 0, approveMigration(unreviewedHook), 0, salt, 0) and execute(same), and schedule / execute of verifier.setSigner(newSigner, true) with delay 0.

Expected (D-57, D-40, D-79): the 7-day powers always wait 7 days; getMinDelay() stays 7 days.

Actual: controller.approvedMigration() == unreviewedHook and verifier.isSigner(newSigner) in the same block they were proposed; getMinDelay() == 0.

The 48 h test does the same with config.setIntegratorShareBps(2500): it is 2,500 in the proposing block.

Both tests fail here and pass when the script deploys a TimelockController subclass whose updateDelay reverts.

lowSocialRegistry: revoking a link (unlink / unlinkWallet by the X link key or the owner) does not consume the nonce, so a voucher signed before the revocation and never submitted restores the link untillaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:104
link and linkWallet bind a voucher to the per-coin nonce (nonces[coin]++) or the per-wallet nonce (walletNonces[msg.sender]++) and nothing else moves those nonces. unlink(coin) and unlinkWallet(account), the functions the X link service key and the 48 h timelock use to revoke a badge or a proposer's X identity (D-50; ARCHITECTURE 8: the service 're-checks links weekly'), delete the link but leave the nonce where it is.

A wallet that went through the link flow a second time while already linked (the service signs for the current nonce) and kept that voucher unsubmitted therefore re-links itself right after the revocation, without the service's involvement, as long as the voucher's deadline has not passed; a revocation is only final once every voucher the service ever signed for that nonce has expired.

The deadline is chosen by a service that is not built yet (ROADMAP item 15), so the window is undefined today; with short deadlines the effect is small, with long ones a revoked proposer keeps proposing as '@handle' and a coin keeps an X badge the service or the owner removed. Same pattern as R1-A3-4 (AirdropDistributor: a direct setClaimWallet left a signed delegation valid), fixed there by consuming the nonce.

Invariant 19 checked: no replay of a used voucher, deadlines enforced, callers restricted; the gap is an unused voucher outliving a revocation.

Fix: increment nonces[coin] in unlink and walletNonces[account] in unlinkWallet (the attached test passes with that change, checked on a copy in test/scratch), or let the verifier / owner bump a nonce explicitly.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/SocialRevocation.t.sol -vv. bob links '@frogdao' with voucher V0 (nonce 0, deadline T0 + 1 day); the service signs V1 for nonce 1 (bob re-ran the flow) and bob keeps it; the service (verifier) calls unlinkWallet(bob): walletHandle(bob) is empty. bob calls linkWallet('frogdao', T0 + 1 day, V1).

Expected: refused, the revocation stands until the service signs a new voucher.

Actual: accepted, walletHandle(bob) == 'frogdao' again.

Same for a coin: bob (fee recipient) links a handle with C0, keeps C1 (nonce 1); the owner calls unlink(coin); bob calls link(coin, handle, deadline, C1): badgeOf(coin) shows the handle again.

Both tests fail here ('a revoked ... link was restored ...') and pass once the nonces move on unlink.

lowHolder stream: the clock keeps running while nobody is eligible, so the first wallet to buy one token collects a banked day's share (1/7 of the stream) in the same transaction, and releasableToHolderslaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:157
D-79 made _releaseToHolders return 0 while the coin's eligible supply is below PadToken.MIN_ELIGIBLE (line 161), so that a release is 'never parked on the coin for its next buyer' (R2-A1-3).

But it returns without touching lastReleaseAt, so the stream's time keeps accruing (capped at MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 day by line 129) and is paid to whoever is eligible first: a wallet buys one whole token (MIN_ELIGIBLE = 1e18, worth about 0.000002 IMD on a fresh curve) and calls releaseToHolders in the same transaction, becomes the only eligible holder and is credited the whole banked day's share, then sells.

Measured on this commit: a no-tax coin whose only holder sold back (eligibleSupply == 0), recipient = the coin, 700 IMD put into the stream; 30 days later releasableToHolders(coin) reports 100 IMD and releaseToHolders(coin) pays 0; carol buys 0.001 IMD worth (1,530 tokens), calls releaseToHolders: 100 IMD released, carol's dividend 100 IMD, net +99.99997 IMD after selling the tokens back.

Every further day the same 0.001 IMD position takes the next 100 IMD, so the stream meant for the coin's holders is drained by a wallet that never holds across a block (the limiting case of the one-block capture finding, with a 100% share).

RewardDripper had exactly this (R2-A3-3, 'the first 1-$PONDPAD staker drips a full catch-up window to itself') and D-79 fixed it by forfeiting closed time; the holder stream was not given the same treatment, although R2-A1-3 sends the holder tax to the growth fund in that state for the same reason.

The view mismatch has a side effect: keeper.mjs sends releaseToHolders for every coin with releasableToHolders > 0 (daily, HANDOFF section 6), so each such coin costs the keeper a no-op transaction a day for as long as it has no eligible holder (the function's NatSpec 'IMD the next releaseToHolders would release' is not true in that state either).

Low: the IMD belongs to a coin with no holders at the time, so there is no victim at the instant it is taken, and the amounts are small; it is a gap in the R2-A1-3 / R2-A3-3 reasoning and feeds the one-block capture.

Fix that keeps D-78: while nobody is eligible either forfeit the time (set lastReleaseAt = block.timestamp when returning at line 161, as the dripper now does) or pay the due share to the growth fund as R2-A1-3 does for the holder tax; and make releasableToHolders return 0 (or a separate view) in that state so the keeper and PadLens do not send or show it. Invariant 6 checked.
Launch a no-tax coin, alice buys 100 IMD and sells everything back (PadToken.eligibleSupply() == 0).

Creator: vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); anyone: vault.fundHolders(coin, 700e18).

Warp 30 days. vault.releasableToHolders(coin) == 100e18 (one day's share) while vault.releaseToHolders(coin) returns 0 and moves nothing. carol: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 0.001e18, ...)

(1,530 tokens, eligibleSupply >= 1e18), then vault.releaseToHolders(coin) -> returns 100e18, PadToken(coin).claim() -> 100e18 to carol, router.sellFor(all).

Expected (R2-A1-3 intent, R2-A3-3 fix): time with nobody eligible is not banked for the next buyer; nothing is releasable in the block the first holder arrives.

Actual: carol nets +99.99997 IMD for a 0.001 IMD one-block position, repeatable daily.

lowCTOModule applies the oracle bar per request, not per question: a proposer can ask the same takeover (or confirmation) question again and again, submit the first 'yes', and nothing records or counts tlaunchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:211
verifyBool enforces panel >= 51 and agreed >= 2/3 for the one attestation submitted, and a 'no' attestation (answer == 0) makes propose / confirm revert AnswerNo without leaving any state (the request id is not even marked used, since the whole call reverts).

Nothing ties a question to one answer: the question text for a given (coin, recipient, handle) is fixed, oracle.request is a flat 0.5 IMD per panel (D-48), there is no cooldown after a takeover that expired, was contested and not confirmed, or after a 'no', and no way for anyone to submit a 'no' onchain.

A proposer with a weak case asks the same question until one panel of 51 clears two thirds and submits only that attestation (6 hours of validity in the live sample is enough to submit).

With independent panelists each wrong with probability q, P[>= 34 of 51] is 0.011% at q = 0.40, 0.15% at 0.45, 1.2% at 0.50 (about 83 asks, 41.5 IMD), 6.1% at 0.55 (16 asks, 8 IMD) and 20% at 0.60 (5 asks); for the 75-member confirmation, P[>= 50 of 75] is 0.26% at q = 0.50 (383 asks, 191 IMD) and 2.7% at 0.55 (37 asks).

So for any claim the panel is genuinely split on (an 'Abandoned' creator who posts rarely, an announcement slightly short of 7 days, a Safe whose owners' holdings are unclear) the two-thirds bar costs tens of IMD to pass, well below a coin's creator fees, and a 'no' from an earlier panel has no effect. The same holds for VersionRegistry.activate (an audit job 'with no open high or critical findings' asked repeatedly).

The repository's sister design (swarm-steward/IMD-QUESTIONS.md item 18) names this attack and cancels a queued action when anyone submits a 'no' issued no later than the 'yes'; CTOModule has no equivalent, and the creator's only defence is to notice and contest within 3 days, every time.

Low: it needs panel variance rather than a signer fault, the contest path exists, and no attestation can be minted today.

Fix that keeps the oracle trust model: let anyone submit a 'no' attestation for the same question (same rebuilt text; the verifier returns false) and record the latest 'no' per question hash; refuse a propose / confirm whose 'yes' was issued no later than a recorded 'no' (or require the 'yes' to be newer than any 'no' by the same margin as the notice); add a per-coin cooldown after a lapsed or unconfirmed attested proposal; ask the IMD dev for the request creation time or an index by question hash (as IMD-QUESTIONS item 18 does).

Invariant 16 checked (holds as written: signer, exact question, panel, agreement, validity, once).
Approved signer; bob linked to '@frogdao'; coin 30 days old; question q = cto.question(coin, safeM, 'frogdao').

The oracle issues attestation A (requestId A, answer false, panel 60, agreed 50, issuedAt t1) and, to a later identical request, attestation B (requestId B, answer true, issuedAt t2 > t1). bob calls cto.propose(coin, safeM, A, sigA): reverts AnswerNo, no state change, usedRequest[A] stays false. bob calls cto.propose(coin, safeM, B, sigB): accepted, pendingOf(coin).newRecipient == safeM.

Expected under 'the contracts must bind each answer to one exact question and use it once' (THREAT-MODEL section 1) read as one answer per question: the earlier 'no' for the identical question text blocks or at least delays the 'yes'.

Actual: the 'no' is invisible; only the submitted 'yes' counts.

The same calls work for confirmQuestion after a contest and for VersionRegistry.activate.
infoAttestationVerifier: the rounded-up agreement share accepts fewer than two thirds for panels above 5,000 (3,335 of 5,003 passes), so the R1-A4-13 fix is exact only up to that sizelaunchpad/contracts/src/AttestationVerifier.sol:96
The R1-A4-13 fix tests ceil(agreed * 10,000 / panelSize) >= minAgreementBps (line 98).

For the default 6,667 bps that equals agreed / panelSize >= 2/3 exactly while panelSize <= 5,000, but for larger panels the one-bps rounding is coarser than one member: with panelSize = 5,003 and agreed = 3,335 (3 * 3,335 = 10,005 < 2 * 5,003 = 10,006, i.e. 66.660%), 3,335 * 10,000 + 5,002 = 33,355,002 >= 5,003 * 6,667 = 33,355,001, so verifyBool accepts an attestation that is one member short of two thirds; the same happens for many panel sizes above 5,003 and, for other thresholds the owner may set, from a few thousand members (7,500 bps: 1,877 of 2,503 = 74.99% passes). panelSize is a uint16 (up to 65,535); the oracle runs 5-100 today and the live sample had 200 (swarm-steward/IMD-QUESTIONS.md item 9 says the real range is open), so no impact today: Info.

Exact check: store the threshold as a fraction (numerator, denominator; two thirds = 2 / 3) and test agreed * den >= panelSize * num, which cannot round. Invariant 16 ('agreed >= 2/3') checked: holds for every panel size the oracle can produce today.

infoDeploy.s.sol: coin launches and trades are live from step 5 while the fee splitter still names the Safe as the stakers' recipient (until step 9) and launches are not paused during the runlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:266
The broadcast is a sequence of separate transactions. After step 5 (curve, hook, factory and router initialized) anyone can call PadRouter.launchWith / buyWith; PadConfig.launchesPaused is false and version 1 is only registered in step 6. The FeeSplitter deployed in step 3 names stakers = p.safe and treasury = p.safe as placeholders, and the real recipients (stakers = PadBuyer) are only set in step 9.

Launch fees (0.35 IMD each) and the protocol fee of any trade made in that window sit in the splitter, and a FeeSplitter.distribute() call by anyone before step 9 sends their 40% stakers' share to the Safe instead of PadBuyer.

On a quiet, unannounced deploy the window is seconds and the amount is negligible, so Info; it is the only ordering gap found (every initialize is guarded by the deployer and a non-zero check, every constructor argument is deployed before use, both hook salts are mined for the right flags, $PONDPAD is above IMD, and the deployer ends with no role, no allowance and no $PONDPAD, checked on a local run of deploy() and on the Robinhood fork).

If wanted: deploy with launches paused (PadConfig.setLaunchesPaused(true) in step 3 while the deployer owns it, unpaused by the Safe after the run) or set the final splitter recipients before step 5 by deploying PadBuyer earlier. Invariant 22 checked.
Replay the script's steps on a local chain (test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol runs Deploy.deploy locally).

Between the transactions of step 5 and step 9: creator calls router.launchWith(params, imd, 1e18, false, 0, 0, 0) (succeeds, 0.35 IMD to the splitter), then anyone calls splitter.distribute(): 0.14 IMD arrive at the Safe (stakers' share) and 0.0525 IMD at the Safe again (treasury).

Expected (D-57): the stakers' 40% only ever reaches PadBuyer.

Actual: it reaches the Safe for fees paid before step 9.

lowCTOModule: the council's 90-day wait follows only cancel(); a contested council proposal that lapses unconfirmed can be proposed again the moment it expires, uncontested (R1-A4-5 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:219
R1-A4-5 named two abuses of the council slot: squatting it against attested proposals (closed by the replacement rule) and cancelling a contested proposal to re-propose it with contested = false, dodging the public confirmation CTO-RULES and ARCHITECTURE 5.2 require ('must confirm publicly if contested'). The 90-day wait only runs from cancel() (councilCancelledAt).

A council proposal that is contested and never confirmed is not cancelled: it lapses at expiresAt (7 + 7 + 3 days after it was made), nothing records that, and proposeByCouncil for the same coin and recipient succeeds in the block it expires, with the contest wiped. Each cycle the creator must contest again within 7 days; the first missed window lands the takeover with no confirmation.

Letting a proposal lapse is therefore strictly cheaper for the council than withdrawing it (17 days instead of 90), and the cancel wait punishes only the honest case of withdrawing a mistaken proposal (which otherwise stays executable by anyone). The council is semi-trusted and retires one-way, and every cycle still gives the creator a full contest window, so Low.

Fix: start the same per-coin wait when a council proposal lapses, e.g. in proposeByCouncil revert Cooldown while the stale _pending[coin] is a council proposal with block.timestamp < expiresAt + COOLDOWN (at least when it was contested and not confirmed); the expired struct is still in storage, so no extra state is needed.
Coin 30 days old, recipient = creator.

P: council proposeByCouncil(coin, safeM, 'ipfs://evidence') (executableAt P+7d, expiresAt P+10d).

P+1d: creator contest(coin) (executableAt P+14d, expiresAt P+17d).

The council never calls confirmByCouncil.

P+17d: execute reverts WindowClosed; council proposeByCouncil(coin, safeM, ...) again.

Expected: Cooldown (a withdrawn proposal waits 90 days; a contested one that was never confirmed should not be cheaper to re-arm).

Actual: succeeds, pendingOf(coin).contested == false, councilCancelledAt == 0; at P+24d anyone calls execute(coin) and recipientOf(coin) == safeM with no confirmation ever given.

Proof: test/scratch/CouncilLapseNoCooldown.t.sol fails on this code with 'the contested proposal was re-armed uncontested without a cooldown or a confirmation' and passes with the fix above.

lowVersionRegistry: after an owner rollback, an attested activation of a never-activated version above the rolled-back pointer moves currentVersion again (R1-A4-6 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/VersionRegistry.sol:140
The R1-A4-6 fix lets an activation move currentVersion only when version > currentVersion. The comparison is against the current pointer, not against the newest version ever activated, so it stops protecting once the owner has rolled back.

After setCurrent(k) (k below the newest activated version) the permissionless activate of ANY never-activated version j > k sets currentVersion = j, including a stale version that sits between k and the version the owner just rolled back from.

This is the R1-A4-6 scenario (a valid audit attestation for an older, never-activated version re-points new launches for up to 7 days, the delay of the owner's setCurrent) reached from the rolled-back state; invariant 18 says only the owner chooses the version after a rollback. The regression test test_versions_olderActivationDoesNotRollBack only covers the case with no rollback. Impact stays limited because no launch path reads the registry (R1-A4-16), so Low.

Fix: remember the highest activated version (e.g. latestActivated) and auto-advance only when version > latestActivated; a brand-new version still moves launches forward, an older one never overrides the owner's rollback.
Owner registers versions 1, 2, 3 (same five contracts). activateManually(1), activateManually(3): currentVersion == 3.

Owner rolls back: setCurrent(1): currentVersion == 1.

Approved signer signs a bool 'true' (panel 60, agreed 50, quorum 40) for question(2, '6f1d2c3a-1111-4222-8333-944455556666'); bob (anyone) calls activate(2, job, att, sig).

Expected: version 2 is marked activated but currentVersion stays 1 (only the owner moves it after a rollback).

Actual: currentVersion == 2 and CurrentSet(2) is emitted.

Checked in test/scratch (test passes asserting currentVersion == 2).

lowCreatorVault holder stream: a lump that joins a running stream is paid at the older lump's rate, so it can leave in one release a day later instead of over ~7 days (side effect of the R2-A4-3 fix)launchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:146
Since the R2-A4-3 fix a top-up never lowers a running stream's rate. The rate is therefore the highest remaining / 7 days the stream ever had, for as long as remaining has not hit zero.

When a first, large lump is nearly paid out and a second lump joins (CreatorVault.claim to the coin, SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders and fundHolders are all permissionless, so anyone picks that moment), the second lump inherits the first lump's rate: if it is at most one day of the old rate it is released in full by a single releaseToHolders one day later.

Invariant 6 and D-78 promise that lumps routed to holders are released 'over ~7 days, at most one day's share per release' so that nobody can buy just before a payout, collect and sell (R1-A4-1); for the second lump the day's share is 100% of it rather than 1/7.

The absolute amount one release can pay never exceeds the earlier peak (old lump / 7), which is why this is Low and not a new High, but the typical case is exactly the one the stream was built for: the one-off swarm budget sweep at a holders takeover sets a high rate, and each later creator-fee claim that lands before the stream is empty is then paid out within a day, to whoever holds at that release.

Fix: do not keep the old rate for new money. Track the stream's end time and, on a top-up, set the new end to the amount-weighted average of the old end and now + 7 days (rate = remaining / (end - now)): a 1 wei top-up then moves nothing (R2-A4-3 stays fixed) and a new lump still gets its ~7 days.
Coin whose fee recipient is the coin (creator called setRecipient(coin, coin)); holders exist. t0: fundHolders(coin, 7,000 IMD): rate = 1,000 IMD/day. releaseToHolders at t0 + 1..6 days: 1,000 IMD each, remaining 1,000. t0 + 6 days 23 h: a 900 IMD lump joins (fundHolders; same through claim / sweepToHolders): the call first releases 958.33 IMD, remaining becomes 41.67 + 900 = 941.67 IMD, ratePerSecond stays 1,000 IMD/day (holderStreamOf). t0 + 7 days 23 h: releaseToHolders(coin) returns 941.666666666666110000 and remaining == 0.

Expected (D-78): about 941.67 / 7 = 134.5 IMD per daily release, the lump paid over ~7 days.

Actual: the whole 900 IMD lump is paid by one release, one day after it joined.

lowCTOModule: a 'no' from the larger panel has no effect and nothing limits re-asking, so a contested takeover is confirmed by the first 'yes' among any number of panelslaunchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:292
The contest safeguard (D-51) is 'a second yes from a panel of at least 75'. On chain only a 'yes' has any effect: confirm with a valid attestation whose answer is false reverts AnswerNo, consumes nothing and leaves the proposal pending, and propose behaves the same for the first question.

Nothing binds the takeover to one oracle request: oracle.request is a separate paid request each time (0.5 IMD, requester-chosen panel size 5-100, D-48), the question text is public, and the requester also picks the evidence window of each request (R2-A4-4, open in part), so the proposer can put the same confirmation question to as many fresh panels as the 10-day window allows and submit the first 'yes'.

A creator holding a signed 'no' from an 80-member panel cannot use it to end the takeover. The decision rule the contract implements is therefore 'at least one panel of >= 75 said yes', not 'the larger panel said yes', which weakens the contest exactly in the borderline cases it exists for (CTO-RULES 'Contested takeovers'), where independent panels can plausibly split. No loss without panel variance, so Low (same footing as R2-A4-5).

Options: (a) accept the first valid answer either way: a 'no' with >= 75 members, issued after the contest, submitted by anyone, deletes the pending takeover; (b) bind the confirmation to one request committed before it is answered: registerConfirmation(coin, requestId) once per takeover, and confirm requires that requestId and issuedAt after the registration, yes confirms and no ends it.
Approved signer; bob (X frogdao) proposes with a 'true' for question(coin, safeM, 'frogdao'); creator contests at P+1h; q = confirmQuestion(coin, safeM, 'frogdao').

Attestation A1 for q: panel 80, agreed 70, answer false, issuedAt P+2h, signed by the signer. confirm(coin, A1, sig) reverts AnswerNo and usedRequest(A1.requestId) stays false; pendingOf(coin) is unchanged.

Attestation A2 for the same q: panel 80, agreed 54, answer true, issuedAt P+5d. confirm(coin, A2, sig2) succeeds, confirmed == true, and execute at P+10d moves the recipient to safeM.

Expected: once a >= 75 panel answered the confirmation question after the contest with 'no', the contested takeover is over.

Actual: only 'yes' answers count and any later 'yes' confirms.

lowSocialRegistry: a revocation does not use up the nonce, so a voucher signed before the X link service (or the 48 h owner) unlinks a wallet or coin re-links it afterwardslaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:104
linkWallet and link consume walletNonces[account] / nonces[coin], but unlinkWallet and unlink leave them unchanged. A voucher the service signed for the next nonce while the link was still good therefore stays valid until its deadline, also after the verifier key or the owner revoked that link, and the revoked wallet (or fee recipient) simply links again with it.

The revocation power D-50 gives the service ('the verifier ... can revoke a link', re-checked weekly) is undone by a signature the service issued earlier; the only other remedy is rotating the service key through the 48 h timelock. For takeovers this means a wallet whose X link was revoked can restore it and pass CTOModule.propose's NoXAccount guard under the revoked handle. Same class as R1-A3-4 (a direct setClaimWallet did not consume the delegation nonce).

No funds move, so Low.

Fix: bump the nonce in unlinkWallet and unlink (walletNonces[account]++, nonces[coin]++), at least when the caller is the verifier or the owner.
Service key signs WalletLink(bob, keccak256('frogdao'), nonce 0, deadline D); bob calls linkWallet('frogdao', D, v0): walletNonces[bob] == 1.

While linked, bob obtains a second voucher v1 for nonce 1 (same deadline D = now + 1 day) and keeps it.

The service revokes: verifier calls unlinkWallet(bob); walletHandle(bob) == ''. bob calls linkWallet('frogdao', D, v1).

Expected: BadVoucher (the link was revoked after v1 was signed).

Actual: succeeds, walletHandle(bob) == 'frogdao'.

Same for coins: link(coin, h, D, voucher(nonce n+1)) after the verifier's unlink(coin).

lowDeploy.s.sol: the 48 h and 7-day delays are not fixed: the Safe can cut either timelock's delay to zero with one scheduled updateDelay, after which every 'delayed' power is instantlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
Both timelocks are stock OpenZeppelin 5.0.2 TimelockControllers. Each holds its own DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE and exposes updateDelay(uint256) to itself, with no floor. The Safe (sole proposer) can schedule updateDelay(0) on the 7-day timelock; once that single operation has waited 7 days and anyone executes it, getMinDelay() == 0 and the Safe can schedule and execute any later call in one transaction.

THREAT-MODEL section 1 bounds the 48 h and 7-day timelocks to 'same as the Safe, delayed', and D-40 / D-78 rely on the 7-day window before a market migration approval, an oracle signer change or a verifier swap takes effect.

R1-A2-5 was fixed for exactly this reason (setSinkAdmin could hand the 7-day powers to an undelayed address; sinkAdmin was made immutable and ARCHITECTURE 5.6 now lists 'hand the market's sink role to another address' under 'can never do'), but the address it was pinned to can still make itself undelayed, so the review window that fix protects is still removable.

The same one-off route exists through Solady Ownable: the timelock can transferOwnership of CTOModule, AttestationVerifier, VersionRegistry, PadConfig, etc. to any undelayed address. All of it is visible for one full delay, so Low (as R1-A2-5), but it is an owner path past a stated bound.

Fix, if the owner wants the delays to be a code bound: deploy a small TimelockController subclass whose updateDelay reverts below the deploy-time delay (or always), and decide whether ownership transfers of the 7-day contracts should stay possible.
Deploy as the script does: slow = new TimelockController(7 days, [safe], [address(0)], address(0)); verifier = new AttestationVerifier(address(slow)). safe: slow.schedule(address(slow), 0, abi.encodeCall(updateDelay, (0)), 0, 0, 7 days).

Warp 7 days; anyone: slow.execute(...): slow.getMinDelay() == 0.

Then, in one transaction, safe: slow.schedule(address(verifier), 0, abi.encodeCall(setSigner, (safe, true)), 0, 0, 0) and slow.execute(...): verifier.isSigner(safe) == true with no delay.

Expected (D-57, THREAT-MODEL section 1): every 7-day power waits 7 days.

Actual: after the one delayed updateDelay, none does.

lowCTO-RULES.md (frozen at deploy): R1 and R5 require a PondPad proposal/post that cannot exist when the first oracle question is asked, and R2 counts the permissionless CreatorVault.claim as creator actlaunchpad/CTO-RULES.md:27
The rules are code the oracle panel executes, pinned once and named in every question for the module's whole life (D-51: 'these rules can never change for that module'; rulesURI has no setter and CreatorVault binds ctoModule once). Three conditions in the draft do not fit the contracts.

Ordering: CTOModule.propose takes the oracle answer as its input, so when the first question is asked there is no on-chain proposal and no takeover banner (the site shows one only 'during CTO notice', SITE-COPY; there are no on-site posts, D-70). R1's first sentence ('The proposal was made by the wallet linked to the X account named in the question'), instruction 3 ('the coin page shows ... the takeover proposal') and R5 ('posted on the PondPad coin page, at least 7 days before the question') can therefore not be checked for the first question, and instruction 1 tells the panel to answer false whenever a rule cannot be verified. A panel that follows the text literally answers false to every first question, and once retireCouncil has been called (one-way) no takeover can ever be proposed.

R2 'Abandoned' lists 'did not claim creator fees', but CreatorVault.claim(coin) is permissionless ('Anyone can trigger it') and pays the creator either way: a Claimed event and incoming IMD on the creator wallet are produced by whoever calls it, so a third party who wants no takeover (or the creator from an unrelated wallet) can make an abandoned coin look claimed-from every 29 days for the cost of gas.

The X link stays with the coin after a takeover (SocialRegistry.handleOf), so 'the coin's linked X account' R2/R5 refer to may still be the ousted creator's; worth saying which link the rules mean. None of this moves funds, so Low, but it has to be right before the text is pinned. Fix in the text: let R1/R5 refer to the public announcement (X post naming coin, receiver and proposer wallet) for the first question and to the on-chain proposal only for the confirmation; define claims as transactions sent by the creator wallets; say that a takeover leaves the old X link in place until the new recipient changes it.

State: bob's wallet is linked to @frogdao; @frogdao announced the takeover of coin C to safe M 8 days ago; no propose has happened (it needs the answer).

Question put to the panel: question(C, M, 'frogdao').

Under 'Instructions to the panel' 1 and 3 and R1/R5 as written, the panel must check 'the proposal' and a post 'on the PondPad coin page' that do not exist (CTOModule.pendingOf(C).newRecipient == 0, no banner, no posts) and answer false.

Expected: a rule set that is satisfiable before the first proposal.

The review is complete. .imd-findings.json at the repository root holds 16 verified findings (1 High, 9 Low, 6 Info); the only files touched are that file and my scratch tests under launchpad/contracts/test/scratch/.

Verdict for area A4: not clean. One High survives: the R1-A4-1 fix is incomplete.

High, with proof. The holder stream bounds each releaseToHolders to one day's share, but PadToken.distribute still credits that share to whoever holds at the instant of the permissionless release. A wallet with no position buys, releases, claims and sells in one block, one day after a lump enters the stream, and repeats daily. In the project's own regression scenario the taker nets 311 IMD on day one and 2,180 of the 3,503 IMD lump over the week, while the standing holder gets 707. The regression test passes only because it acts in the funding block. My self-contained proof fails on this commit and passes on a vault copy with a one-hour release gap. Both specialists who reported it agree, and I merged them.

Low (9). All reproduced, duplicates merged across the four specialists:

Holder stream clock runs with nobody eligible, so the first dust buyer takes a banked day, and releasableToHolders overstates what is paid.

A later lump inherits a running stream's higher rate and leaves in one release.

Both timelocks can zero their own delay via one scheduled updateDelay (stock OpenZeppelin self-admin), undoing in substance the R1-A2-5 window.

SocialRegistry revocation does not consume the nonce, so a kept voucher restores a revoked link.

VersionRegistry rollback can be undone by an attested activation of a skipped version.

A lapsed contested council proposal re-arms uncontested with no 90-day wait.

A 'no' answer leaves no trace, so the first 'yes' among any number of panels decides.

A coin's X badge survives a takeover; after a holders takeover nobody empowered can clear it.

CTO-RULES text references an on-chain proposal and on-site post that cannot exist for the first question, and counts the permissionless claim as a creator act.

Info (6). Rounded two-thirds accepts 3,335 of 5,003; launches live before splitter recipients are final during the deploy run; airdrop total self-reported; ARCHITECTURE 5.5 mis-attributes settings to PadConfig; pre-launch JSON-escaping check for /, ', @, :; untested CTO and deploy edges.

Dropped: the specialists' coverage note (not a defect). The four supplied proofs all failed for their stated reasons and are referenced on the merged findings.

Invariants checked: 6, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 22. Fixes re-verified for every A4 item marked fixed; gaps found in R1-A4-1 (High), R1-A4-5, R1-A4-6, R2-A1-3, R2-A4-3 (Low) and R1-A4-13 (Info). Local suite: 138 tests pass. Fork tests were not run.

highR1-A4-1 fix incomplete: a one-block buy / releaseToHolders / claim / sell still takes most of a holder-routed lump, one day's share at a timelaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:128
The holder stream (D-78, the fix of R1-A4-1) changes how much one releaseToHolders pays (rate x min(elapsed, MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 day)) but not who receives it: _releaseToHolders transfers the whole slice to the coin and calls PadToken.distribute(), which credits it pro rata to the balances of that instant, with no hold and no time weighting. releaseToHolders, claim(coin) and SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders are permissionless and run outside any PoolManager unlock, so the caller picks the instant. A wallet with no position waits until about a day has accrued (or goes first in the block of the keeper's daily call, HANDOFF section 6) and in one transaction buys through PadRouter.buyWith, calls releaseToHolders, claims its dividend and sells back through sellFor. It carries no price risk and pays only the round-trip fee; its own release restarts the clock, so it repeats on each of the ~7 days. It is profitable whenever its share of one day's release exceeds the round-trip fee: with D the day's release, E the value of the eligible float, P the position and f the coin's fee rate, profit = DP/(E+P) - 2fP > 0 whenever D > 2f*E (3% to 9% of the float's value per day). That is the normal state of the coins this feature exists for: an abandoned coin whose float was sold down and whose swarm budget and creator fees were swept to holders.

Measured on this commit in the project's own regression scenario (test_cto_holderLumpCantBeCapturedInOneBlock: 3% tax coin, alice holds 100 IMD worth, 2,000 IMD creator fees + 1,500 IMD swarm budget routed to holders, stream 3,503.5 IMD at 500.5 IMD/day), run one day after the stream is funded instead of in the funding block: one release pays 500.5 IMD, carol's one-block 1,000 IMD position takes 399.45 IMD of it (79.8%), alice (the standing holder) gets 101.05 IMD, and carol ends the block +311.47 IMD after about 88 IMD of fees. Repeated on each of the 7 days carol takes 2,796 of the 3,503.5 IMD (net +2,180 IMD) and alice, who held all week, receives 707 IMD. The regression test passes only because it acts in the funding block, when nothing is releasable yet.

This contradicts invariant 6 as written ("Dividends ... can't be captured ... within one block"; the stream is the mechanism that sentence relies on), ARCHITECTURE 5.2 and CTO-RULES ("spread over about 7 days so nobody can buy in just before a payout") and the regression test's own assertion. The staking analogue (R1-A3-3) was accepted in writing, but it needs a hold across an Ethereum block and its drip is 1/7 of the buffer at most once per catch-up window; this needs no hold at all and the whole lump is reachable in 7 blocks. Two details widen it: (a) since R2-A4-3 a running stream never lowers its rate, so a later lump rides the earlier lump's rate (reported separately); (b) claim(coin) and sweepToHolders(coin) are permissionless, so the taker also chooses when a lump enters the stream. Rated High as the residual of a fixed High that still fails the fix's own test under realistic conditions; the owner may instead accept it in writing (as R1-A3-3 was), in which case invariant 6, D-78 and CTO-RULES must be reworded.

Fix that keeps D-52 and D-78 (any of these makes the attached proof pass): release what the stream owes before a buyer receives tokens (BondingCurve.buy and the router's pool-buy path call creatorVault.releaseToHolders(coin) first, the way the holder tax is credited before the buyer gets tokens), so accrued time always goes to the holders who were there; or hold tokens that arrived in the current block out of a release (as StakedPONDPAD.heldShares does); or make one release worth less than a round trip's fees (MAX_RELEASE_GAP of an hour or less, with router trades and the keeper poking the stream). Extend the regression test to later days.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/HolderStreamOneBlockCapture.t.sol -vv (attached; fails on this commit, passes on a copy of CreatorVault with MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 hours, checked in test/scratch).

Expected (invariant 6, the regression test's own assertion): carol's IMD <= before.

lowHolder stream: the clock runs while nobody is eligible, so the first wallet to buy one token collects the banked day's share in the same transaction, and releasableToHolders overstates what releaseToHlaunchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:161
D-79 (R2-A1-3) made _releaseToHolders return 0 while eligibleSupply < MIN_ELIGIBLE, so nothing is parked on a coin with no holders.

It returns before touching lastReleaseAt, so the stream keeps accruing (capped at MAX_RELEASE_GAP = 1 day) and the banked day is paid to the first wallet that becomes eligible: it buys one whole token (MIN_ELIGIBLE = 1e18, about 0.000002 IMD on a fresh curve), calls releaseToHolders in the same transaction as the only eligible holder, is credited the whole day's share, and sells back; every further day the same dust position takes the next day's share.

RewardDripper had the same gap (R2-A3-3) and D-79 fixed it by forfeiting closed time; the holder stream was not given the same treatment.

Side effect: releasableToHolders (NatSpec: "IMD the next releaseToHolders would release") reports a positive amount while releaseToHolders pays 0, so keeper.mjs (which sends releaseToHolders for every coin with releasableToHolders > 0, daily) sends a no-op transaction a day per such coin and PadLens shows a release that will not happen.

Low: the IMD belongs to a coin with no holders at that instant, so nobody is diluted when it is taken; it is the limiting case (100% share) of the one-block capture finding. Fix that keeps D-78: while nobody is eligible either forfeit the time (set lastReleaseAt = block.timestamp when returning at line 161, as the dripper does) or send the due share to the growth fund as R2-A1-3 does for the holder tax; and make releasableToHolders return 0 in that state.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_deadCoinFirstBuyerTakesBankedDay (passes on this commit, asserting the capture).

No-tax coin; alice buys 100 IMD and sells everything back (PadToken.eligibleSupply() == 0); creator: vault.setRecipient(coin, coin); anyone: vault.fundHolders(coin, 700e18).

Warp 30 days. vault.releasableToHolders(coin) == 100.000000000000051200e18 while vault.releaseToHolders(coin) returns 0. carol: router.buyWith(coin, imd, 0.001e18, ...) -> 1,530 tokens; vault.releaseToHolders(coin) -> 100e18 released; PadToken(coin).claim() -> 100e18 to carol; sellFor(all).

Expected (R2-A1-3 intent, R2-A3-3 fix): time with nobody eligible is not banked for the next buyer.

Actual: carol nets +99.99997 IMD for a 0.001 IMD one-block position, repeatable daily.
lowHolder stream: a lump that joins a running stream is paid at the earlier lump's higher rate, so it can leave in one release instead of over ~7 days (side effect of the R2-A4-3 fix)launchpad/contracts/src/CreatorVault.sol:146
Since R2-A4-3 a top-up never lowers a running stream's rate, so the rate is the highest remaining / 7 days the stream ever had until remaining hits zero.

When a large lump is nearly paid out and a smaller one joins (claim to the coin, SwarmBudget.sweepToHolders, fundHolders: all permissionless, so anyone picks the moment), the second lump inherits the first lump's rate: if it is at most one day of the old rate it is released in full by a single releaseToHolders one day later.

Invariant 6 / D-78 promise lumps routed to holders are released "over ~7 days, at most one day's share per release"; for the second lump the day's share is 100% of it.

The per-release amount never exceeds the earlier peak (old lump / 7), so this is Low rather than a new High, but the typical case is the one the stream exists for: a one-off swarm budget sweep at a holders takeover sets a high rate, and each later creator-fee claim that lands before the stream is empty is paid out within a day to whoever holds at that release (which feeds the one-block capture).

Fix: do not carry the old rate for new money; e.g. track the stream's end time and on a top-up set the new end to the amount-weighted average of the old end and now + 7 days (rate = remaining / (end - now)): a 1 wei top-up then moves nothing (R2-A4-3 stays fixed) and a new lump still gets ~7 days; or keep per-lump sub-streams.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_laterLumpInheritsOldRate (passes on this commit).

Coin whose recipient is the coin, alice holds. t0: fundHolders(coin, 7,000e18): rate 1,000 IMD/day. releaseToHolders at t0+1d..t0+6d: 1,000 IMD each, remaining 999.99. t0+6d23h: fundHolders(coin, 900e18): the call first releases 958.33, remaining becomes 941.67, ratePerSecond stays 1,000 IMD/day (holderStreamOf). t0+7d23h: releaseToHolders(coin) returns 941.666666666666110000e18 and remaining == 0.

Expected (D-78): about 134.5 IMD per daily release, the 900 IMD lump paid over ~7 days.

Actual: the whole lump is paid by one release, one day after it joined.
lowBoth timelocks can remove their own delay with one delayed self-call (OpenZeppelin updateDelay), after which every 48 h and 7-day power, including the sinkAdmin powers R1-A2-5 fixed in place, is immedlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:250
Deploy.s.sol creates both timelocks as stock OpenZeppelin 5.0.2 TimelockControllers with admin = address(0). The constructor always grants DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE to the timelock itself, and updateDelay(uint256) (callable only by the timelock, i.e. through one of its own operations) has no floor.

The Safe, the only proposer, schedules updateDelay(0) with the timelock as target; after one wait (48 h or 7 days) anyone executes it; getMinDelay() is then 0 and from that block the Safe schedules and executes any later call in the same transaction.

Everything D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1 put behind the delays is affected: oracle signers and thresholds (AttestationVerifier), CTOModule.setVerifier / setCouncil / retireCouncil, VersionRegistry.setVerifier / setCurrent, FeeSplitter shares and recipients, StakedPONDPAD powers, WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards, MarketController.approveMigration / setBurnSink / setRewardsRecipient (7 days); PadConfig, GrowthFund, RewardDripper, PadBuyer, AirdropDistributor, MarketController policy, SwarmBudget relay (48 h).

R1-A2-5 was fixed by making sinkAdmin immutable so the 7-day timelock "can't hand the sink and migration-approval powers to an undelayed address" (D-79): the address is fixed but its delay is not, so the D-40 review window (holders read the approved hook's code for 7 days) can still be reduced to zero by one visible operation, after which approveMigration + migrate (the Safe is migrator) move the whole $PONDPAD position into a hook nobody had time to read.

The self-admin role also lets a timelock grant PROPOSER_ROLE to another address or revoke the Safe's CANCELLER_ROLE the same way, and Solady Ownable lets the 7-day timelock transferOwnership of each owned contract to an undelayed address. ARCHITECTURE 5.6 lists no "change the delay" power; D-57 says "no admin".

The first step is itself delayed and visible (as a call to the timelock itself, which the Transparency page decodes only against the owned contracts' ABIs), and it needs the Safe, which is why this stays Low like R1-A2-5: an owner path past a stated bound, to document as a trust assumption or close.

Fix that keeps D-57: deploy a thin TimelockController subclass whose updateDelay reverts (or refuses a delay below the deploy-time minimum; updateDelay is virtual in OZ 5.0.2), and consider renouncing the timelock's own DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE after deploy; decide whether ownership transfers of the 7-day contracts should stay possible.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: both tests fail on this commit for the stated reason; it runs Deploy.deploy locally with the mainnet delays).

Safe: slowTimelock.schedule(slowTimelock, 0, abi.encodeCall(updateDelay, (0)), 0, 0, 7 days); 7 days later anyone: slowTimelock.execute(same).

Then in one transaction: Safe schedule(controller, 0, approveMigration(unreviewedHook), 0, salt, 0) and execute(same); same for verifier.setSigner(newSigner, true).

Expected (D-57, D-40, D-79): every 7-day power waits 7 days; getMinDelay() stays 7 days.

Actual: controller.approvedMigration() == unreviewedHook and verifier.isSigner(newSigner) in the proposing block; getMinDelay() == 0.

48 h test: config.setIntegratorShareBps(2500) is 2,500 in the proposing block.
lowSocialRegistry: revoking a link (unlink / unlinkWallet by the X link key or the owner) does not consume the nonce, so a voucher signed before the revocation restores the link until its deadlinelaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:104
link and linkWallet bind vouchers to nonces[coin]++ / walletNonces[msg.sender]++, and nothing else moves those nonces. unlink(coin) and unlinkWallet(account), the revocation paths of the X link service key and the 48 h timelock (D-50; ARCHITECTURE 8: the service "re-checks links weekly"), delete the link but leave the nonce.

A wallet (or fee recipient) that went through the link flow again while already linked and kept that voucher unsubmitted (the service signs for the current nonce) re-links itself right after a revocation, without the service, as long as the voucher's deadline has not passed. For wallets that re-enables a revoked CTO proposer (propose needs a non-empty walletHandle) under the revoked handle; for coins it restores a revoked badge.

Same class as R1-A3-4 (AirdropDistributor.setClaimWallet), fixed there by consuming the nonce. The deadline is chosen by a service not built yet (ROADMAP item 15), so the window is undefined today; no funds move: Low.

Fix: walletNonces[account]++ in unlinkWallet and nonces[coin]++ in unlink (at least when the caller is the verifier or the owner), so a revocation voids every voucher issued before it.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/SocialRevocation.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: both tests fail on this commit for the stated reason).

Service key signs WalletLink(bob, keccak256('frogdao'), nonce 0, deadline T0+1d); bob: linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V0); bob keeps V1 for nonce 1 (same deadline).

Service (verifier): unlinkWallet(bob): walletHandle(bob) == ''. bob: linkWallet('frogdao', deadline, V1).

Expected: BadVoucher, the revocation stands until the service signs again.

Actual: accepted, walletHandle(bob) == 'frogdao'.

Same for a coin: bob (fee recipient) links a handle with the nonce-0 voucher, keeps the nonce-1 one; owner: unlink(coin); bob: link(coin, h, deadline, C1): badgeOf(coin) shows the handle again.
lowVersionRegistry: after an owner rollback, an attested activation of a never-activated version above the rolled-back pointer moves currentVersion again (R1-A4-6 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/VersionRegistry.sol:140
_activate moves currentVersion whenever version > currentVersion.

That compares against the current pointer, not the newest version ever activated, so it stops protecting once the owner has rolled back with setCurrent: after setCurrent(1) with version 3 activated and version 2 registered but never activated, anyone holding a valid audit 'yes' for version 2 calls activate(2, ...) and currentVersion becomes 2, a version the owner did not choose; undoing it takes the 7-day timelock.

That is the R1-A4-6 outcome reached from the rolled-back state; invariant 18 says only the owner rolls back. The regression test test_versions_olderActivationDoesNotRollBack only covers currentVersion == newest.

Low: the registry gates nothing onchain (invariant 18), so the effect is on what the site and integrators read from current().

Fix: remember the highest version ever activated (or ever current) and auto-advance only above it, e.g. if (version > highestActivated) { highestActivated = version; currentVersion = version; }.
cd launchpad/contracts && forge test --match-path test/scratch/VersionRollback.t.sol -vv (the specialist's proof, run here: fails on this commit for the stated reason).

Register versions 1, 2, 3; activateManually(1), activateManually(3): currentVersion == 3.

Owner: setCurrent(1).

Expected (R1-A4-6 fix, invariant 18): version 2 marked activated, currentVersion stays 1.

Actual: currentVersion == 2 and CurrentSet(2) is emitted.
lowCTOModule: the council's 90-day wait follows only cancel(); a contested council proposal that lapses unconfirmed can be proposed again, uncontested, the moment it expires (R1-A4-5 fix incomplete)launchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:219
R1-A4-5 named two abuses of the council slot: squatting it against attested proposals (closed by the replacement rule) and cancelling a contested proposal to re-propose it with contested = false, dodging the public confirmation CTO-RULES and ARCHITECTURE 5.2 require ("the council must confirm publicly"). The 90-day wait only runs from cancel() (councilCancelledAt).

A council proposal that is contested and never confirmed is not cancelled: it lapses at expiresAt (7 + 7 + 3 days after it was made), nothing records that, and proposeByCouncil for the same coin and recipient succeeds in the block it expires, with the contest wiped. Each cycle the creator must contest again within 7 days; the first missed window lands the takeover with no confirmation ever given.

Letting a proposal lapse is therefore cheaper for the council than withdrawing it (17 days instead of 90), and the cancel wait punishes only the honest case. The council is semi-trusted and retires one-way, and every cycle gives the creator a full contest window, so Low.

Fix: start the same per-coin wait when a council proposal lapses, e.g. in proposeByCouncil revert Cooldown while the stale _pending[coin] is a council proposal with block.timestamp < expiresAt + COOLDOWN (at least when it was contested and not confirmed); the expired struct is still in storage, so no extra state is needed.

Actual: succeeds, pendingOf(coin).contested == false, councilCancelledAt == 0; at P+24d anyone executes with no confirmation.
lowCTOModule applies the oracle bar per submitted request, not per question: a 'no' answer leaves no trace and nothing limits re-asking, so a takeover or confirmation is decided by the first 'yes' among launchpad/contracts/src/CTOModule.sol:292
verifyBool checks panel >= 51 (>= 75 for confirm) and agreed >= 2/3 for the one attestation submitted; a valid 'false' makes propose / confirm revert AnswerNo, which also rolls back usedRequest, so a refusal changes nothing onchain and there is no way for anyone to submit a 'no'.

Nothing ties a takeover to one oracle request: the question text is public and fixed per (coin, recipient, handle[, contestedAt]), oracle.request is a separate 0.5 IMD request each time (D-48), and the requester also picks the evidence window of each request (R2-A4-4, pin deferred), so the same question can be put to as many fresh panels as the window allows and only the first 'yes' submitted.

The decision rule the contract implements is "at least one panel said yes", not "the panel said yes": for any claim a panel is genuinely split on (an 'Abandoned' creator who posts rarely, an announcement slightly short of 7 days) the two-thirds bar costs tens of IMD to pass (with independent members each voting yes with probability 0.5, P[>= 34 of 51] is about 1.2%, about 83 asks / 41.5 IMD; P[>= 50 of 75] about 0.26%; at 0.55, 6.1% and 2.7%), well below a coin's creator fees, and a unanimous 'no' from a 100-member panel after a contest does not stop a later 50-of-75 'yes'.

The same holds for VersionRegistry.activate. The repository's sister design (swarm-steward/IMD-QUESTIONS.md item 18) names this attack and cancels a queued action when anyone submits a 'no' issued no later than the 'yes'; CTOModule has no equivalent, and the creator's only defence is to notice and contest within 3 days, every time.

Low: it needs panel variance rather than a signer fault, the contest path exists, no attestation can be minted today, and the oracle is trusted for its answer (invariant 16 holds as written).

Options that keep the oracle trust model: let anyone submit a valid 'no' for the same rebuilt question (verifyBool returns false) and record the latest 'no' per question hash; refuse a propose / confirm whose 'yes' was issued no later than a recorded 'no' (in confirm, a 'no' from a >= 75 panel issued after the contest ends the takeover); add a per-coin cooldown after a lapsed or unconfirmed attested proposal; or bind the confirmation to one request id registered before it is answered.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_noAnswerLeavesNoTraceAndLaterYesConfirms (passes on this commit, asserting the sequence).

Approved signer; bob linked to '@frogdao'; coin 30 days old. bob: propose(coin, safeM, A_yes, sig). creator: contest at P+1h. q = confirmQuestion(coin, safeM, 'frogdao').

Three attestations for q with answer false, panelSize 100, quorum 67, agreed 100, issuedAt P+2h (distinct windows): each confirm(coin, no, sig) reverts AnswerNo and usedRequest(no.requestId) stays false.

A fourth for q: answer true, panelSize 75, quorum 50, agreed 50, issuedAt P+3h: confirm succeeds, confirmed == true; at P+10d execute(coin) moves the recipient to safeM.

Expected: a larger panel's 'no' after the contest ends the takeover, or at least can be put on record against it.

Actual: the refusals are invisible and the first 'yes' decides.
lowSocialRegistry: a coin's X link survives a change of fee recipient, so after a takeover the ousted creator's X account is still the coin's verified handle, and after a holders takeover nobody the takelaunchpad/contracts/src/SocialRegistry.sol:123
link is restricted to the coin's fee recipient and the voucher binds the linking account, but the registry stores only the handle hash and never re-checks the recipient: handleOf / badgeOf keep returning the handle after CreatorVault.setRecipient or ctoSetRecipient.

Takeovers exist for creators who abandoned or rugged a coin (CTO-RULES R2); after one executes, the coin page still shows the ousted creator's X account with the verified badge, a PondPad-verified voice for the coin at the moment the community removed them (e.g. to post a 'migration' address).

A multisig recipient can call unlink if it knows to; after a takeover to holders the recipient is the coin contract, which can't call anything, so only the X link key or the 48 h timelock can clear it. CTO-RULES R2/R5 also refer to 'the coin's linked X account' without saying it may still be the ousted creator's.

No funds move: Low.

Fix: store the account that linked the handle and have badgeOf / handleOf report nothing once creatorVault.recipientOf(coin) is no longer that account (or let anyone unlink a coin whose recipient changed since the link).
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_badgeSurvivesHoldersTakeover (passes on this commit, asserting the stale badge).

Creator links keccak256('ruggedcreator') to the coin with a voucher from the X link key.

At coin age 30 days the council proposes proposeByCouncil(coin, coin, ...)

(fees to holders; the attested path behaves the same); 7 days later anyone calls execute(coin): vault.recipientOf(coin) == coin.

Expected: the coin no longer shows the ousted creator's account as verified.

Actual: social.badgeOf(coin) still returns (keccak256('ruggedcreator'), false); unlink(coin) reverts Unauthorized for the creator and for holders.
lowCTO-RULES.md (frozen at deploy): R1 / R5 and instruction 3 refer to an on-chain proposal and an on-site post that cannot exist when the first oracle question is asked, and R2 counts the permissionlesslaunchpad/CTO-RULES.md:27
The rules are what the oracle panel executes, pinned once and named in every question for the module's life (D-51; rulesURI has no setter). Three conditions do not fit the contracts.

Ordering: CTOModule.propose takes the oracle answer as its input, so when the first question is asked there is no on-chain proposal (pendingOf(coin).newRecipient == 0), no takeover banner (the site shows one only during the notice, SITE-COPY) and no on-site posts at all (D-70: no on-site comments). R1's first sentence ('The proposal was made by the wallet linked to the X account named in the question'), instruction 3 ('the coin page shows ... the takeover proposal') and R5 ('posted on the PondPad coin page, at least 7 days before the question') cannot be checked for the first question, and instruction 1 tells the panel to answer false whenever a rule cannot be verified. A panel following the text literally answers false to every first question; once retireCouncil has been called (one-way) no takeover could then ever be proposed.

R2 'Abandoned' lists 'did not claim creator fees', but CreatorVault.claim(coin) is permissionless and pays the creator either way: a Claimed event and incoming IMD on the creator wallet are produced by whoever calls it, so a third party who wants no takeover makes an abandoned coin look claimed-from every 29 days for gas.

The coin's X link stays with the coin after a takeover (previous finding), so 'the coin's linked X account' in R2/R5 may be the ousted creator's. No funds move, Low, but it must be right before the text is pinned. Fix in the text: let R1/R5 refer to the public X announcement (coin, receiver, proposer wallet) for the first question and to the on-chain proposal only for the confirmation; define 'claimed creator fees' as transactions sent by the creator wallets; say that a takeover leaves the old X link in place until the new recipient changes it.

Read CTO-RULES.md lines 19-21, 27, 32 and 45 against CTOModule.propose (the attestation is an input: no proposal exists before the answer), SITE-COPY (banner only during the notice), D-70 (no on-site posts) and CreatorVault.claim (line 93: 'Anyone can trigger it').

State: bob's wallet is linked to @frogdao; @frogdao announced the takeover of coin C to Safe M 8 days ago; no propose has happened.

Question put to the panel: question(C, M, 'frogdao').

Under instructions 1 and 3 and R1/R5 as written the panel must check 'the proposal' and a post 'on the PondPad coin page' that do not exist and answer false.

For (2): anyone calls vault.claim(C) on day 1 and day 30 of the creator's silence; the explorer shows Claimed(C, creator, amount) and IMD arriving at the creator wallet inside R2's 30-day window although the creator sent no transaction.
infoAttestationVerifier: the rounded-up agreement share accepts fewer than two thirds for panels above 5,000 members (3,335 of 5,003 passes), so the R1-A4-13 fix is exact only up to that sizelaunchpad/contracts/src/AttestationVerifier.sol:98
The R1-A4-13 fix tests ceil(agreed * 10,000 / panelSize) >= minAgreementBps.

For 6,667 bps that equals agreed / panelSize >= 2/3 exactly while panelSize <= 5,000, but for larger panels one bps is coarser than one member: panelSize = 5,003, agreed = 3,335 (3 * 3,335 = 10,005 < 2 * 5,003 = 10,006, i.e. 66.660%) gives 3,335 * 10,000 + 5,002 = 33,355,002 >= 5,003 * 6,667 = 33,355,001, so verifyBool accepts an attestation one member short of two thirds; the same happens for many larger panels and, for other thresholds the owner may set, from a few thousand members (7,500 bps: 1,877 of 2,503). panelSize is a uint16 (up to 65,535); the oracle runs 5-100 today and the live sample had 200, so no impact today: Info.

Exact check: store the threshold as a fraction (num, den) and test agreed * den >= panelSize * num.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_belowTwoThirdsAcceptedForHugePanel (passes on this commit).

Verifier with the approved signer and defaults (minPanelSize 51, minAgreementBps 6,667).

Bool attestation with panelSize 5,003, quorum 0, agreed 3,335, valid window, signed. verifier.verifyBool(att, sig, q): expected NotEnoughAgreement; actual returns true.

The test also searches and finds 5,003 as the smallest such panel.
infoDeploy.s.sol: coin launches and trades are live from step 5 while the fee splitter still names the Safe as the stakers' recipient (until step 9) and launches are not paused during the runlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:266
The broadcast is a sequence of separate transactions. After step 5 (curve, hook, factory and router initialized) anyone can call PadRouter.launchWith / buyWith: PadConfig.launchesPaused is false and nothing reads the VersionRegistry (registered in step 6). The FeeSplitter deployed in step 3 names stakers = p.safe and treasury = p.safe as placeholders; the real recipients (stakers = PadBuyer) are only set in step 9.

Launch fees (0.35 IMD each) and the protocol fee of any trade in that window sit in the splitter, and a FeeSplitter.distribute() call by anyone before step 9 sends their 40% stakers' share to the Safe instead of PadBuyer. On a quiet, unannounced deploy the window is seconds and the amount negligible: Info.

This is the only ordering gap found: every initialize is guarded by the deployer and a non-zero check, every constructor argument is deployed before use, both hook salts are mined for the right flags, $PONDPAD is above IMD, and the deployer ends with no role, no allowance and no $PONDPAD (checked by reading the script against D-57 and THREAT-MODEL section 1 and by the local run in test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol).

If wanted: deploy with launches paused (PadConfig.setLaunchesPaused(true) in step 3 while the deployer owns it, unpaused by the Safe after the run) or set the final splitter recipients before step 5 by deploying PadBuyer earlier.
Replay the script's steps as separate transactions (test/scratch/TimelockDelay.t.sol runs Deploy.deploy locally).

Between the transactions of step 5 and step 9: creator calls router.launchWith(params, imd, 1e18, false, 0, 0, 0) (succeeds, 0.35 IMD to the splitter), then anyone calls splitter.distribute(): 0.14 IMD arrive at the Safe (stakers' share) and 0.0525 IMD at the Safe again (treasury).

Expected (D-57): the stakers' 40% only ever reaches PadBuyer.

Actual: it reaches the Safe for fees paid before step 9.
infoDeploy's airdrop check (R2-A3-7 fix) compares the claims file's own total field with 50M; it never adds up the listed amounts or ties them to the rootlaunchpad/contracts/script/Deploy.s.sol:184
airdropRootFromClaims reads .root and .total from claims.json and requires total <= 50M. Both values are what snapshot.py wrote; the script does not sum .claims[*].amount or check that the root is the root of those claims.

An edited, truncated or mismatched file (claims summing to more than 50M, or a root from another run) passes, and the distributor is funded with 50M against a larger list (first come, first served; the last claimants get nothing; invariant 20's 'total claims <= 50M' then holds only through the balance, as R2-A3-7 said).

Info: it needs a wrong file from the team's own tooling.

Fix: read vm.parseJsonKeys(json, '.claims'), add up the amounts, require the sum to equal .total and be <= 50M; rebuilding the root from the leaves would close the rest.
test/scratch/A4Judge.t.sol test_judge_airdropTotalIsSelfReported (passes on this commit). new Deploy().airdropRootFromClaims('{"root":"0x1111...1111","total":"50000000000000000000000000","claims":{"0x...01":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]},"0x...02":{"amount":"40000000000000000000000000","proof":[]}}}').

Expected: refused, the list adds up to 80M.

Actual: returns the root.
infoARCHITECTURE 5.5 describes PadConfig as holding splitter shares, the growth/stakers dial, the worker rewards address, the Relay and oracle signers; the code keeps none of them therelaunchpad/ARCHITECTURE-v1.md:309
PadConfig (48 h timelock) holds the launch settings, the integrator share and registry, the payment routes, the guardian and the launch pause; its fee splitter and growth fund are immutable (D-78). Splitter shares and recipients live in FeeSplitter (7-day timelock), the worker rewards address in WorkerFund (7 days), the Relay in SwarmBudget and GrowthFund (48 h), oracle signers in AttestationVerifier (7 days).

Section 5.5 still lists them under PadConfig and says changes to them 'apply only to future launches', which is wrong for every one of them (they are live settings). Section 5.2 names CreatorVault.setFeeRecipient (the function is setRecipient). Auditors and the Transparency page's 'who can change what' are pointed at the wrong contract and delay.

Info: documentation only.

Fix: rewrite the PadConfig paragraph to the actual setters and owners, as THREAT-MODEL section 1 already has them.
Compare ARCHITECTURE-v1.md lines 306-312 with PadConfig.sol (setters: setIntegratorShareBps, setIntegrator, setLaunchSettings, setPaymentRoute, removePaymentRoute, setGuardian, setLaunchesPaused; no shares, relay, worker address or signer functions) and with FeeSplitter.setShares (owner = 7-day timelock), WorkerFund.setWorkerRewards, SwarmBudget.setRelay / GrowthFund.setRelay and AttestationVerifier.setSigner.

Expected: the document names where each setting lives and its delay.

Actual: it attributes them to PadConfig and to 'future launches'.
infoPre-launch check: the oracle question-hash rebuild is only validated against a live question without '/', the apostrophe, '@' or ':'; every takeover and version question contains themlaunchpad/contracts/src/AttestationVerifier.sol:157
questionHashTyped writes the question text verbatim into the canonical JSON (only '"' and '\' are refused). The one live check (test_verifier_matchesLiveImdAttestation) uses a question of letters, spaces, ',', '?' and '.'. The questions this verifier is used for contain 'ipfs://' (some JSON encoders escape '/' as '/', e.g. PHP's default), an apostrophe ("the coin's holders"), '@' and ':'.

If the oracle's canonicaliser escapes any of these, WrongQuestion is returned for every takeover and version attestation; the only remedy is the 7-day owner swapping the verifier (R1-A4-17), and if retireCouncil / retireManualActivation had already been called, takeovers and attested activations would be impossible until then.

Not a code defect that can be shown without the oracle; reported so the check is done before the fallbacks are retired (HANDOFF section 7 lists the chain-id question but not this one).
Not reproducible onchain.

Concrete check: request an oracle answer for cto.question(coin, coin, 'frogdao') (contains 'ipfs://', "coin's", '@', ':') and assert verifier.questionHash(q, att.chainId, att.fromBlock, att.toBlock) == att.questionHash.

If the oracle escapes '/', the live hash is keccak256 of '...rules at ipfs://...' and verifyBool reverts WrongQuestion for the exact question the contract builds.
infoUntested CTO / deploy edges: attested replacement of a contested-and-confirmed council proposal, confirmation landing inside the execution window, council cancel after retirement, CREATE2 reuse of a plaunchpad/contracts/test/Governance.t.sol:666
Reviewing the suite against the state machine: (a) _propose lets an attested proposal replace a pending council proposal in any state; the only test replaces an uncontested one, so the reset of contested, confirmed, contestedAt, _proposerX and _recipientCodehash for a contested-and-confirmed council proposal in its execution window is untested (code reads correct: the whole struct and both mappings are overwritten).

(b) confirm is accepted up to expiresAt, so a confirmation can land during the 3-day execution window; untested. (c) cancel has no councilRetired check, so the council can still cancel (and start a 90-day cooldown on) its own pending proposals after retirement; harmless, untested.

(d) Deploy._create2 reuse is tested only for $PONDPAD (DeployCreate2.t.sol), not for a hook pre-deployed at its mined salt (the deployer_ constructor argument is what keeps initialize with the deployer). (e) SocialRegistry uses SignatureCheckerLib, so a contract verifier (ERC-1271) is supported but never exercised. None showed a defect on reading; listed so the regression suite covers them.
Each item is a missing test, not a failing input. Example for (a): council proposes for coin C at P; creator contests at P+1 day; council confirmByCouncil at P+2 days; at P+14 days (execution window open) bob submits an attested proposal: expected pendingOf(C) has contested = false, confirmed = false, contestedAt = 0, byCouncil = false, proposerXOf(C) = 'frogdao' and confirmQuestion reverts NotContested until a new contest.
