• 1.mediumCDPVault lagged fee base: a cold draw by any position absorbs a warm repayment's fading share, and the cold repayment is then subtracted again, so the base collapses to the live supply and the fee is src/CDPVault.sol:1437

          _laggedSupply = lagged > cold ? lagged - cold : 0;

  Q3; a gap left by the fix for the retry panel's medium #5 (merged from audit_flow 2f12b4a4 and audit_math a73695b7; audit_economics cba55ee9 is the documentation half of the same mechanism). _laggedSupply is stored as an ABSOLUTE figure and _laggedSupplyFrom(start) reads max(start, start + cool(_laggedSupply - start)). Two rules contradict each other.

  (1) A mint never touches _laggedSupply (_mintOrBurn only checkpoints), so at the next checkpoint the fading excess is measured against a live supply the mint has raised: a cold draw (or an earn) of M absorbs M of the warm repayment's share. (2) _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce (line 1437) then subtracts a cold repayment from _laggedSupply in full, although the mint it repays was never added to it.

  Net effect of a cold draw-and-repay of M by ANY position: the base falls by min(M, excess).

  Call sequence (launch constants, wage 0, divisor 2; BORROWER holds 900 of a 1,000 supply as seasoned debt, OTHER 100; the Treasury holds IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded): tx1 BORROWER wipe(900e18): warm, banked, live 100, _laggedSupply 1,000 (redemptionFeeBps(9e18) still 95, as designed). tx2 any position (a contract in one call, or an EOA in three transactions) lock(2000e18), draw(900e18), wipe(900e18): the draw's checkpoint sets _laggedSupply = 100 + cool(900) = 999.6, the mint lifts live to 1,000; the wipe's _lag retires 899.6 of cold principal into COLD_REPAID_SLOT and _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce sets _laggedSupply = 1,000 - 899.6 = 100.4, live 100. tx3 anyone cash(9e18, 0, address(0)): _redemptionRate reads prior 100.4 and increase 9 / 100.4 / 2 = 4.48%: redemptionBaseRate is set to the 4.5% cap where the honest base of 1,000 gives 0.0045e18. tx4 BORROWER draw(900e18), credited warm from its bank: the position is exactly where it started.

  The same erasure works through cash against the cold helper instead of its wipe.

  Cost: gas, one block, no seasoned capital (the helper can even use the collateral BORROWER freed) and 0.45 imdUSD of fee against the honest 4.5 (a burn of 9% of supply).

  Who loses: every later redeemer pays 500 bps instead of 50 for a half-life or two; the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) sits at 0.95 on demand; a candidate can deter redemptions against itself; repeatable every half-life. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance; needs one large position (LINE is $1M at launch).

  The regression test test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol test_adjacentWipeCashDrawPinsTheFeeBase passes only because its redraw is credited from the same position's bank (warm), so no cold principal is ever retired.

  NatSpec the code does not have: lines 334-337 ('an increase counts at once ... a repayment of warm principal only as it ages, its excess halving every BACKING_HALF_LIFE'; an increase is in fact absorbed by the fading excess, so after a warm repayment of W and a new draw of E the base is max(live, fading high-water mark), not live + fading W), 893-895 ('a repayment in it or in the last few hours does not shrink the base') and 1427-1429 ('Only warm repayments lag').

  Smallest fix: keep the lag as an EXCESS over the live supply rather than an absolute figure. At each checkpoint cool the excess; at every repayment burn (_payDebt, cover) add principalPaid - coldRepaid to it; on a draw subtract the part credited from the position's bank (the same supply returning; floor at zero) and nothing else; leave it untouched by other mints, by redemptions and by cold repayments; prior = start + cooled excess.

  A mint can then not absorb it and a cold repayment cannot subtract from it, while a wipe-and-redraw by the same position still nets to the pre-churn supply. (audit_flow verified an equivalent variant locally: tally increases into the lagged figure at once, less the bank-credited part, so a cold repayment's subtraction is matched by its mint's addition; the attached proof and the committed redemption, retry-panel, lag, cover, liquidation and invariant suites s

  ParameterizedVault over an 18-decimal MockIMD at $1 (IMD/ETH 1/2000 times Chainlink ETH/USD 2000e8 etched at CHAINLINK_ETH_USD), NHI 0.85, TreasuryFactory etched at TREASURY_FACTORY, launch constants (wage 0, divisor 2).

  BORROWER locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives BORROWER 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD; two quiet days; supply 1,000, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) == 95.

  Test 1: BORROWER wipe(900e18) [tx 1]; a helper contract calls lock(2000e18), draw(900e18), wipe(900e18) in one transaction [tx 2]; supply back at ~100.

  EXPECTED: redemptionFeeBps(9e18) <= 96 and, after cash(9e18, 0, address(0)), redemptionBaseRate <= 0.0046e18.

  ACTUAL: redemptionFeeBps(9e18) == 500 ('the lagged base must still hold the warm 900 repaid moments ago: 500 > 96').

  Test 2: the same three steps from two EOAs as separate transactions (OTHER locks 2,000, draws 900, wipes 900), then cash(9e18, 0, address(0)).

  EXPECTED: redemptionBaseRate 0.0045e18.

  ACTUAL: 44890786251530523 (the cap: 'a 9-of-1,000 burn must not pin the fee at the cap: 44890786251530523 > 4600000000000000'). audit_math's Proof_a73695b7acf2 (one call: draw, wipe, cash) fails the same way with base 44901683765300744 against 4500000000000000, and its baseline (the committed regression's sequence) passes.

• 2.mediumCDPVault._lag: a bank credited in full by a one-block visit is re-dated when the capital leaves again, so a once-seasoned position keeps its warmth indefinitely while its capital is in the vault one bsrc/CDPVault.sol:992

                      if (bank == 0) bankAt = block.timestamp;

  Q2 and Q1(b) (from audit_math 73d81e30). The retry panel's medium #3 was answered with one date per bank, 'set only when that bank goes from empty to full', so that a bank expires one warm-up after the capital first left. But a return credits the bank down to zero (lines 996-997), and the next departure finds bank == 0 and dates the refilled bank at that moment (line 992).

  A position that seasoned its capital once can therefore leave, come back for a single transaction every 23 hours (lock + draw, credited in full on both sides), leave in the next transaction (banked again, re-dated) and never warm up again: the capital is in the vault one block out of every 23 hours, forever.

  That is exactly the D1 round trip the lag exists to close, for anyone who has held a position for one day at any time in the past: bring the capital in (tx N), redeem reserve IMD at the lifted backing or earn against the lifted ceiling (tx N+1), withdraw (tx N+2), with the capital exposed to price and liquidation for one block per cycle.

  Reachable with the constants as committed: the redemption half at wage 0 (_backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and supply - fresh with the returning capital warm), the ceiling half once a wage is set. Bounded by what the position once held warm, hence medium, as the panel rated the same 'permanent option' (its #3).

  NatSpec the code does not have: lines 318-319 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting or a redemption at par'), 759-760 ('An attacker's capital can raise the live figure but not the lagged one, whichever position it sits in'), 963-964 ('a bank only ever returns warmth to the position that lost it, within BACKING_WARMUP of the moment it first filled, whatever is added to it later').

  Smallest fix that keeps the design: let a bank COOL while it waits, at the lag's own half-life, and credit only what is left: credit = min(increase, _cool(bank, block.timestamp - bankAt, false)), the expiry becoming the natural zero at BACKING_WARMUP.

  A borrower's ordinary wipe-and-redraw minutes apart is still credited almost whole; capital away for 23 hours comes back about 7% warm; a one-block visit cannot re-arm it, because the refilled bank holds only what was credited and is dated at the departure.

  ParameterizedVault at $1, NHI 0.85, wage 0.

  OTHER locks 1,000, draws 200 and hands BORROWER 200 imdUSD of fee money.

  BORROWER locks 2,000, draws 1,000; two quiet days: laggedNow() == (1,200e18, 2,400e18). t0: BORROWER wipe(debtOf) and free(all): laggedNow().debt == 200e18, bankDebt 1,000 and bankSecured 2,000 dated t0.

  Every 23 hours: lock(2000e18) + draw(1000e18) as one transaction, then wipe + free as the next.

  EXPECTED at t0 + 46 h and after (the capital first left more than a BACKING_WARMUP ago and has been present for two blocks since): laggedNow().debt <= 270e18 and .secured <= 540e18 (OTHER's terms plus at most 7% of the returning capital).

  ACTUAL: laggedNow() == (1200e18, 2400e18) on every visit, ten cycles over ten days ('capital away for a day comes back cold: 1200000000000000000000 > 270000000000000000000').

• 3.mediumCDPVault._redemptionRate: the fee base counts cold principal at once, so a draw held for one block (or a cold repayment inside the redeeming call) dilutes the fee to the floor and resets the base ratesrc/CDPVault.sol:906

          uint256 prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(_supplyStart());

  Q3, the other direction (merged from audit_permissions f1f7755a and audit_economics ddd10333). The lagged fee base lags DECREASES of warm principal only. _laggedSupplyFrom floors the base at start, the live supply when the transaction began, and the live supply includes principal that is zero blocks old; _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce removes a cold repayment across transactions but not inside the transaction that redeems, because _redemptionRate reads _laggedSupplyFrom(_supplyStart()) and _supplyStart() is the pre-wipe supply.

  1. Across transactions, one block: tx N lock + draw(D); tx N+1 anyone's cash(A) is quoted A / (S + D) / divisor instead of A / S / divisor, and redemptionBaseRate is stored from it for everyone after; tx N+2 wipe(D) (cold, _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce, the position's bank is empty, nothing lags).
  2. In one call through a contract: wipe(D) of cold principal then cash(A): _laggedSupply has already lost D but the floor at start still holds it, which contradicts lines 334-336 and 1427-1429 ('a repayment of cold principal counts at once') for the same transaction and lets the churn finish inside one call; as two transactions the same calls charge A / S / divisor. Cost: gas, a stability fee on D for one block (0.012% a day at DUTY_BPS) and 1.7 x D of sIMD exposed for one block; D is bounded only by the line's room ($1M at launch against a small supply). Who loses: the redeemer's fee (up to the 4.5% between cap and floor on A) is value that would have stayed in the reserve or the candidate position, and the stored base rate, the throttle that slows a redemption run and makes the b952037a pump expensive, is reset low on demand (95 bps for everyone instead of 500 in the proof), repeatable every half-life. Reachable with the constants as committed, wage 0, no governance. It is the mirror image of the retry panel's medium #5 and of the finding above. NatSpec: 334 ('an increase counts at once') states the rule, but the requester's own Q3 property ('no sequence moves the base ... above [honest] without seasoned capital held for hours') does not hold, and 893-895 / 1427-1429 contradict each other for the same-call case. Smallest fix: measure the fee base against WARM supply the way backing does, prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(start) - (totalDebt - laggedNow().debt) - coldRepaidThisTransaction (a tally _payDebt does not clear), saturating at zero (which quotes the cap, the lag's accepted direction). Trade-off to decide: while every unit of supply is cold (the first hours after launch, or right after a large honest draw) prior is small and early redemptions pay the cap; audit_economics measured ten committed redemption tests failing under that rule. If the cost is refused, state at 334-343 and 893-895 that a draw held across one block dilutes the base and that a cold repayment counts at once only from the next transaction, and drop the claim at 1427-1429 that the cold rule prevents the inflation.

  ParameterizedVault over MockIMD at $1 (Chainlink 2000e8 etched), NHI 0.85, divisor 2, Treasury holding 10,000 IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded.

  Control (passes): redemptionFeeBps(90e18) == 500 and cash(90e18) leaves redemptionBaseRate == 0.045e18.

  Attack 1: an actor contract lock(17,000e18) + draw(9,000e18) in one transaction; next block HOLDER cash(90e18, 0, 0); next block actor wipe(9,000e18); supply 910 after.

  EXPECTED: quoted >= 495 bps, base >= 0.0445e18.

  ACTUAL: quoted 95 bps, base 0.0045e18 ('cold principal must not dilute the fee: 95 < 495').

  Attack 2: the actor holds the 90 and calls wipe(9,000e18) then cash(90e18) in ONE call.

  EXPECTED base >= 0.0445e18 (cold repaid counts at once).

  ACTUAL 0.0045e18 ('cold principal repaid in the same call must count at once: 4500000000000000 < 44500000000000000').

• 4.lowCDPVault.cash: the start-of-transaction supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly sub, so a redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with wraps it; backingPerUnit reads 0, tsrc/CDPVault.sol:734

              tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, sub(tload(SUPPLY_START_SLOT), amount))

  Q3/Q4, the transient bookkeeping across several mints and burns in one transaction (all four specialists: audit_flow 40b7b462, audit_math 24d7b4ae, audit_permissions a1132c6c, audit_economics 5076eedf; merged).

  SUPPLY_START_SLOT holds start + 1, the supply at the transaction's first mint or burn. cash subtracts its whole burn with assembly sub, which has no underflow check. amount is bounded only by the LIVE supply (_redemptionRate line 902), and a draw or earn earlier in the transaction raises the live supply above start, so a redemption of more than start + 1 wraps the slot to about 2^256 - (amount - start); exactly start + 1 wraps it to 0, which _checkpointSupply reads as 'not recorded' and re-checkpoints _laggedSupply and the start supply from the mid-transaction live supply.

  Until the transaction ends _supplyStart() returns the wrapped figure: _backingPerUnit takes supply = max(live, start) ~ 2^256 and rounds perUnit to 0 (backingPerUnit() reads 0 in a fully backed vault), _redemptionRate reads prior ~ 2^256 and quotes the floor with no increase, and a second cash computes gemOut = 0 and reverts ZeroAmount.

  Transient storage is cleared when the call ends and _laggedSupply only ever falls, so nothing persists and no profit path was found (a cash at the wrapped figure pays nothing): the harm is a legitimate composed flow (a router or multicall that borrows or earns and then redeems more than the pre-existing supply, ordinary at launch with a small supply and a $1M line) refused with an error indistinguishable from an empty reserve, and wrong quotes mid-call.

  The comment at 729-730 ('counts at once, across transactions and inside this one') does not hold for such a burn. Reachable with the constants as committed.

  Smallest fix: saturate at the transaction's floor, keeping the +1 sentinel so the slot never reads as unrecorded, e.g. in a small private helper (an extra local in cash itself hits stack-too-deep): let s := tload(SUPPLY_START_SLOT) switch gt(s, amount) case 1 { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, sub(s, amount)) } default { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, 1) }, matching the saturating update of _laggedSupply on the line before.

  ParameterizedVault at $1, NHI 0.85; OTHER locks 200 and draws 100 (the supply the next transaction begins with is 100); the Treasury holds 5,000 IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded; a router contract holds 10,000 IMD.

  Control, as separate transactions: lock(2000e18) + draw(900e18); cash(500e18, 0, 0) pays a1 > 0; cash(100e18, 0, 0) pays b1 > 0 (passes, snapshot reverted).

  Then in ONE transaction: lock(2000e18), draw(900e18) [live 1,000, start 100], cash(500e18, 0, 0) [burns more than start: the slot becomes 101e18 - 500e18 mod 2^256], then backingPerUnit(), redemptionFeeBps(100e18), cash(100e18, 0, 0).

  EXPECTED: both redemptions paid as in the control, backingPerUnit() == 1e18 between them.

  ACTUAL: the call reverts ZeroAmount() at the second cash; the specialists' logged readings with the asserts removed are backingPerUnit() == 0 and the quote at the 50 bps floor.

• 5.lowCDPVault._backingPerUnit: the accepted cross-transaction premium is stated as at most supply / (supply - repaid), but the lagged figure's denominator is supply - fresh, so with cold debt outstanding tsrc/CDPVault.sol:769

      /// most supply / (supply - repaid), the repayment bounded by the churner's principal above half its

  Q4, the bound check the task asks for on the accepted medium (retry panel #4); the premium itself is not re-reported (from audit_flow c05c911a; audit_permissions d451c417 item 3 adds the parenthetical note below). _backingPerUnit returns min(live, lagged) with lagged = (reserve + warm secured) * 1e18 / (supply - fresh), where fresh = totalDebt - laggedNow().debt is the vault's cold principal.

  Below par the lagged figure binds, so a warm borrower's repayment R one transaction earlier (its term unchanged, 170-200% band) scales that figure by (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - R), not by supply / (supply - R) as the NatSpec (768-770), the retry panel's resolution table and test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol (which pins the bound with fresh == 0) state. The two coincide only when no debt is cold.

  The churner must itself be warm (a cold churner's repayment lowers fresh by the same R, and the denominator does not move), so R is bounded by 15% of the WARM principal it holds and the true bound is 1 / (1 - 0.15 x s_w) with s_w the churner's share of the warm supply: 17.6% for a churner that is the whole warm supply, where supply / (supply - repaid) suggests 15% of its share of the whole supply.

  Whenever a large part of the supply is fresh (launch, or after a large draw by anyone) the stated bound understates what a redeemer takes out of the Treasury's reserve and the other holders' backing.

  Also, the parenthetical '15% of it at a 170% minimum ratio, 25% at 150%' describes a churner AT mat: wipe has no health check, so a position below mat that is unmarked or inside its grace can repay up to half its principal without moving its term; it cannot redraw past the health check, so that variant costs capital, not gas, and the gas-only bound stands as the general clause.

  Not a bypass of the acceptance: the cost (gas, below par only, bounded by the churner's warm principal) stands; the bound stated for it does not.

  Smallest fix: state the bound as (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - repaid), fresh being the cold principal laggedNow excludes, in the NatSpec, in docs/AUDIT-RETRY-PANEL-VAULT-2026-10-07.md's resolution and in the retry-panel test's assertion (which should pin the bound with fresh debt present); or make the lagged denominator read the supply the churn left in it by adding the position's unexpired bankDebt back to supply - fresh for the lagged figure.

• 6.low_resecureBounded / _lag: a price fall re-prices a debt-bound secured term upward and the whole rise is cold, so collateral held for days is excluded from the lagged backing for a day after a fall and src/CDPVault.sol:950

          _lag(position, true, before, current);

  Q4 ('or underpays honest redeemers') and Q1(c) (from audit_math 2e2c4d95). _lag is driven by the secured TERM, min(collateral, 2 x principal / price), not by the collateral itself.

  For a position above 200% the term is debt-bound; when the price falls and the position is next touched (its own lock, wipe or free, or ANY third party's cash against it once it is an eligible candidate, even for one wei), the term rises toward its collateral and _lag treats the whole rise as cold capital although nothing arrived: the collateral had been in the vault for days. _backingPerUnit then pays redeemers the lagged figure, which excludes that collateral, for a day after the fall (half of it for six hours), which is exactly when redemptions matter.

  It is the safe direction and not a theft, but it is not 'new capital' either, and a third party can impose it on every eligible candidate with a one-wei cash against each. Reachable with the constants as committed. NatSpec the code does not have: lines 312 and 956 ('what a position adds is cold' / 'An increase is cold, less what the position's bank gives back') describe additions; a re-pricing adds nothing.

  Smallest fix: cold only the part of a term increase that corresponds to capital added in the same call: pass the collateral and principal this call added into _resecure (from lock, lockIMD and draw) and cap the cold increment at added collateral + 2 x added principal / price; a pure re-pricing is then warm.

  (The mirror, a price rise shrinking a debt-bound term and banking the decrease as warm, only ever credits the same position's own term back within a day and was checked as within the design.)

• 7.lowCDPVault._lag / _cool: a position untouched for a day reads its own cold as zero while the vault total, kept alive by others' touches, still holds 1/16 of it, so the position's repayment leaves that csrc/CDPVault.sol:1021

          if (elapsed >= BACKING_WARMUP) return 0;

  Q1(a)/(c) (from audit_economics 4693a119). _cool returns 0 for any elapsed >= BACKING_WARMUP. For the vault total that is the designed quiet-day rule, and a touch of any position restarts it.

  For a position the same rule runs on the position's OWN elapsed (block.timestamp - position.coldAt, line 971), so a position left untouched for a day reads its cold as zero even when the vault total, touched by others every few hours, still carries that position's residual (1/16 after exactly a day, rounded up at every touch).

  The total is then above the sum of the positions, which the NatSpec calls the safe direction, but the decrease path takes coldOut = min(cold, out) with cold == 0 (lines 987-989): nothing leaves the total, the whole repayment is banked as warm, and the residual stays in _coldDebt / _coldSecured as cold for debt and collateral that no longer exist, halving every six hours and zeroed only by a quiet vault day.

  Effect: laggedNow reads the OTHER positions' warm capital short by that residual (62.5 of the helper's 100 in the reproduction), so ParameterizedVault.backedDebt / earnLine and the lagged _backingPerUnit figure are below honest for hours.

  Direction: conservative for the protocol (I checked that an orphan on both sides lowers the lagged backing below par whenever honest backing is under the position's term-to-debt ratio, i.e. always below par; on the debt side alone it would raise fresh and shrink the denominator, but a term always moves with the principal it bounds, so a debt-only orphan needs an unreadable price and was not reached).

  So this is a griefing and accuracy defect rather than an extraction: a borrower who holds D for a day while the vault stays active, repays, and redraws (credited warm from its bank, so its own position is unaffected) leaves D/16 of phantom cold behind each time; with D equal to the honest debt that is about 6% off the lagged backing and the work ceiling for about a day, for one day of stability fee on D and gas.

  The claim at 1016-1018 ('A touch only ever restarts that day, so activity can slow warming but never speed it') holds; the per-position premise in Q1(a) that 'a position's own quiet day is its own' holds for the position's figures and not for the total its decrease is applied to.

  Smallest fix: cool a position's figures continuously (apply the half-life for any elapsed, without the >= BACKING_WARMUP short-circuit; _pow stays at about 27 squarings for any realistic gap), so a position's cold is never below its share of the total and a decrease always removes what the position actually contributed; keep the quiet-day zeroing for the total only.

• 8.lowCDPVault.bite: the no-mark, no-grace path keys on the re-lock's value against the bad-debt record, so a rebuilding borrower whose tranche or price move leaves the collateral below the record is bittensrc/CDPVault.sol:1129

          if (!_relockBelowBadDebt(owner, price)) {

  Q5 ('a price move between their deposits') (from audit_permissions 1ba6e564). The retry panel's low #7 narrowed the skip to a re-lock worth less than the recorded bad debt, and its low #6 made cover take such a re-lock at its value with no liquidator needed.

  After those two fixes the bite shortcut is no longer needed to clear a griefing re-lock while the Treasury holds imdUSD (cover does it at par, 0% penalty, strictly better for protocol and borrower), but it still removes the mark and the grace from every drained borrower whose collateral is worth less than the record at the moment of the bite, whatever their intent: a borrower rebuilding in tranches is exposed between tranches, and one who re-locked collateral worth 110% of the record (above it, so marked and given grace like anyone) and is moved below it by a 10% price fall is liquidated by anyone in the same block, for any debtToRepay the collateral covers, at the 20% penalty, with both bonus shares to the liquidator (line 1156).

  An identical position with no record gets bark and up to six hours (NHI >= 0.85) to top up; the comment's premise at 1123-1124 ('cannot recover by waiting') is not a property of the position, because the same price moving back up returns it to the marked path.

  Harm bounded by the re-lock (20% of what is bitten); the bad-debt record and totalBadDebt stay consistent through the bite and through cover's value sweep (_reduceDebt lowers the record with the debt; _recordBadDebt re-records at zero collateral), which I checked. Reachable with the constants as committed.

  Smallest fix: require the ordinary mark and grace in bite for every position above dust, leaving cover's at-value sweep as the permissionless remedy for a re-lock below the record (and keep the shortcut, if at all, only for the case cover cannot serve: a Treasury with no imdUSD); or, if the shortcut is kept, say in docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md and the borrower docs that a drained borrower must re-lock at least the recorded bad debt's worth in one transaction and keep it above the record.

• 9.infoCDPVault._cool NatSpec: 'rounded up for the vault's totals, so they never read below the sum of the positions' is not exact, because _pow truncates at every squaring and a total cooled touch by touch src/CDPVault.sol:1016

      /// totals (`up`, so they never read below the sum of the positions) and down for a position; and

  Q1(a) and (d) (merged from audit_flow 08475e01, audit_math f30223db, audit_economics c023b9c7). The vault's cold totals are cooled at every touch of any position (_lag line 969) with _cool(..., up = true), while a position's own cold is cooled once, at its next touch, over the whole gap, with up = false.

  The ceiling only guarantees total >= sum when the decay factor composes exactly, and _pow does not: each result * factor / one and factor * factor / one truncates, so _pow(f, a) * _pow(f, b) / RAY can read below _pow(f, a + b) by a few units in 1e27, and the one-unit ceiling per touch cannot cover that on an amount above about 1e27 raw units (a thousand sIMD at 24 decimals).

  Consequence: when such a position subtracts its cold the vault total saturates to zero (line 989) while another position still holds cold of that dust size, which laggedNow then reads as warm; bounded by about 1e-21 of the cold amount relatively (under 1e-18 sIMD on a million-sIMD term), no economic effect.

  Also checked and holding for Q1(d): the unchecked block in _lag (every subtraction guarded by the comparison or min before it; bank + (out - coldOut) cannot wrap for any representable position); the uint128 saturation keeps the excess in the vault total, the safe direction (see the NatSpec finding for the comment that says the opposite); _pow's bound (factor and result at most one, products below 1e54 for RAY and 1e36 for 1e18); its gas over long gaps (at most 17 squarings for the cold and the lagged supply, elapsed being short-circuited at BACKING_WARMUP, about 27 for the base rate over a year of quiet).

  Smallest fix: reword the claim ('so the position's share is never read above the total, to within the truncation of _pow'), or compute the vault totals' decay with a rounding-up _pow (round each product up) so the totals dominate by construction.

  2. Lines 334-337 ('an increase counts at once ... a repayment of warm principal only as it ages, its excess halving every BACKING_HALF_LIFE'), 893-895 ('a repayment in it or in the last few hours does not shrink the base') and 1427-1429 ('Only warm repayments lag'): a cold draw and repayment after a warm repayment erases the excess at once (medium, _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce line 1437); an increase that follows a warm repayment is absorbed by the fading excess rather than counted on top of it (the base is max(live, decaying high-water mark), so a redeemer after a dominant repayment and a new draw pays 95 bps where the documented model gives 74, the higher-fee direction, no attacker gain); and a repayment of cold principal does NOT count at once inside the transaction that redeems, because _laggedSupplyFrom floors at the pre-wipe start (medium, _redemptionRate line 906), so 334-336 and 893-895 contradict each other for the same call.

  6. Lines 1002-1003 ('past 128 bits of raw units a position's excess over that counts as warm'): total receives the whole increase (line 999) while cold is capped (line 1004), so the excess is COLD in laggedNow until it cools, and on a later decrease the position's capped coldOut leaves it orphaned in the total; the opposite direction from the comment, the safe one, and unreachable at sIMD's supply (3.4e14 sIMD).

   The review is complete. The tree is clean apart from the gitignored findings file and the scratch tests, and .imd-findings.json holds six verified findings.

   Findings (all reproduced by failing Foundry tests under test/scratch/, with the two mediums carrying proofs)

   • Medium, fee base erased by a cold draw-and-wipe (_coldRepaidCountsAtOnce, CDPVault.sol:1437). The lagged supply is stored as an absolute figure, so a mint absorbs the warm excess and a cold repayment then subtracts it. After a seasoned borrower wipes 900 of 1,000, anyone with collateral for one call does draw 900, wipe 900, cash 9 in one transaction. Expected base rate 45 bps, actual 449 bps. The retry panel's medium #5 is reopened at the same cost. Fix: keep the lag as an excess over the live supply, added to only by warm repayments.
   • Medium, bank re-armed by a one-block visit (_lag, CDPVault.sol:992). A return credits the bank to zero, and the next departure dates a fresh bank. A once-seasoned position can be away all but one block every 23 hours forever and always read warm. Expected after 46 hours away: cold. Actual: fully warm on every visit, ten cycles. This is the permanent option the panel's medium #3 named. Fix: cool the bank at the lag's half-life while it waits.
   • Low, transient supply-start underflow (cash, CDPVault.sol:734). An unchecked assembly sub wraps when a transaction mints and then redeems more than its starting supply. A second same-transaction redemption reverts ZeroAmount instead of being paid.
   • Low, price-fall re-pricing counts as cold (_resecureBounded, CDPVault.sol:950). A debt-bound term grows when the price falls and the position is touched, and the growth is cold although nothing arrived. Redeemers are paid 0.925 instead of 1.0 for a day, and a third party can impose it with a one-wei cash against any eligible candidate.
   • Info, rounding claim (CDPVault.sol:1016). The vault total cooled in two steps can read below a one-step position by units of 1e-27, so "never" is not exact. Immaterial.
   • Info, NatSpec claims the code does not have, with the list at lines 318, 337, 760, 893, 954, 1016, 1427.

   Answers to the numbered questions

   1. The per-position cold holds: the vault total's date is always at or after every position's date, so its factor is never smaller, zeroing after a quiet day is consistent, and cross-position inheritance is gone in both orders. Rounding, the 128-bit saturation, _pow precision and the unchecked block are sound except for the 1e-27 note above. Activity cannot speed warming, but a pure re-pricing is treated as new capital (low finding).
   2. The bank cannot be inflated, moved between positions, kept past its day by a trickle or the other side. It can be kept alive by a one-block round trip, which is the medium finding.
   3. The base never drops below the live start supply, and inflating it needs seasoned principal. It can be pushed down to the live supply at once by a cold draw-and-wipe, which is the medium finding. Same-transaction bookkeeping across wipe, cash, bite, cover, earn and remints is consistent, with the one slot underflow noted.
   4. The accepted premium's formula and bound hold as stated. I found no path raising backing above honest. The underpayment path is the low finding.
   5. Cover's value sweep and bite's no-mark path keep the record and totalBadDebt consistent. A rebuilding borrower whose tranche or price-moved re-lock sits below the record is covered at par or bitten without grace, which is the accepted design and I did not re-report it.
   6. No regression found in the fresh-debt record, wage gate, liquidation, redemption, fee index or price gating. ParameterizedVault runtime is 21,796 bytes with 3,171 bytes of initcode margin.

   • mediumCDPVault fee base: a cold draw absorbs the lagged supply's warm excess and its repayment then subtracts it, erasing a warm repayment's lag for gassrc/CDPVault.sol:1437

     Q3. _laggedSupply is stored as an absolute figure and _laggedSupplyFrom(start) reads it as max(start, start + cool(lagged - start)). A mint therefore absorbs the fading excess that a warm repayment left behind (start grows, the stored figure does not), and _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce then subtracts the cold principal repaid from the same absolute figure.

     Draw D cold and repay D in the same transaction (or the next): the draw's checkpoint sets _laggedSupply = start + cool(E) where E is the warm excess, the mint lifts the live supply by D so that the excess E is now inside the figure, and the cold repayment subtracts D, taking E with it. The lag the retry panel's medium #5 was fixed with is thereby removed by anyone, for gas and collateral held for one call.

     Function: _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce (line 1437) with _checkpointSupply (line 1417) and _laggedSupplyFrom (line 1424).

     Call sequence from an external caller, launch constants (divisor 2, wage 0): supply 1,000 (BORROWER 900 seasoned two days, OTHER 100), Treasury holds IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded. tx1: BORROWER wipe(900e18): live 100, _laggedSupply 1,000, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) still 95. tx2 (one call through a contract, by anyone with 2,000 IMD of collateral for the length of the call): draw(900e18), wipe(900e18), cash(9e18, 0, 0). tx3: BORROWER draw(900e18), credited warm from its own bank.

     Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance.

     Victims: every later redeemer pays ~500 bps instead of 50 for a half-life or two; the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) is 0.95 on demand; a candidate deters redemptions against itself.

     Smallest fix: keep the lag as an EXCESS over the live supply rather than an absolute figure: at each checkpoint cool the excess; add (principalPaid - coldOut) to it at every repayment burn (_payDebt, cover); leave it untouched by mints, redemptions and cold repayments; prior = start + excess. A mint can then not absorb it and a cold repayment cannot subtract from it.

     NatSpec this contradicts: lines 337-338 ('a repayment of warm principal only as it ages, its excess halving every BACKING_HALF_LIFE'), 893-895 ('a repayment in it or in the last few hours does not shrink the base'), 1427-1429.

   • mediumCDPVault._lag: a bank fully credited by a one-block visit is re-dated when the capital leaves again, so a once-seasoned position keeps its warmth forever while its capital is away all but one block a src/CDPVault.sol:992

     Q2 / Q1(b). The retry panel's medium #3 was answered with one date per bank, 'set only when that bank goes from empty to full', so that 'a bank expires one warm-up after the capital first left'. But a return credits the bank down to zero (line 996-997), and the next departure finds bank == 0 and dates the refilled bank at that moment (line 992).

     A position that seasoned its capital once can therefore leave, come back for a single transaction every 23 hours (lock + draw, credited in full on both sides), leave in the next transaction (banked again, re-dated), and never warm up again: the capital is in the vault one block out of every 23 hours, indefinitely.

     That is exactly the D1 round trip the lag exists to close, for anyone who has held a position for one day at any time in the past: bring the capital in (tx N), redeem reserve IMD at the lifted backing or earn against the lifted ceiling (tx N+1), withdraw (tx N+2), with the capital exposed to price and liquidation for one block per cycle.

     Reachable with the constants as committed: the redemption half at wage 0 (_backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and supply - fresh with the returning capital warm), the ceiling half once a wage is set. Bounded by what the position once held warm, hence medium, as the panel rated the same 'permanent option'.

     Smallest fix that keeps the design: let a bank COOL while it waits, at the lag's own half-life, and credit only what is left: credit = min(increase, _cool(bank, now - bankAt, false)) with the expiry becoming the natural zero at BACKING_WARMUP.

     A borrower's ordinary wipe-and-redraw minutes apart is still credited almost whole; capital away for 23 hours comes back about 7% warm; a one-block visit cannot re-arm it because the refilled bank is dated at the departure and cools from there.

     NatSpec this contradicts: lines 318-319 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting or a redemption at par'), 760-761 ('An attacker's capital can raise the live figure but not the lagged one, whichever position it sits in').

     BORROWER locks 2,000, draws 1,000; two quiet days: laggedNow() == (1,200, 2,400). t0: BORROWER wipe(debtOf) and free(all): laggedNow().debt == 200, bankDebt 1,000 and bankSecured 2,000 dated t0.

     Every 23 hours: lock(2000e18) + draw(1000e18) in one transaction, then wipe + free in the next.

     EXPECTED at t0 + 46 h (the capital first left more than a BACKING_WARMUP ago and has been present for two blocks since): laggedNow().debt <= 270e18 and .secured <= 540e18 (OTHER's terms plus at most 7% of the returning capital).

     ACTUAL: laggedNow() == (1200e18, 2400e18) on every visit, ten cycles over ten days in the test.

   • lowcash: SUPPLY_START_SLOT is reduced with an unchecked assembly sub, so a redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with wraps it and every later redemption in the transaction revertssrc/CDPVault.sol:734

     Q3 / Q4 transient bookkeeping. The slot holds supply-at-start + 1. cash subtracts its whole burn with sub, which has no underflow check in assembly.

     A transaction that mints first (draw or earn) and then redeems more than the supply it began with (amount > start + 1; allowed, since _redemptionRate only bounds amount by the LIVE supply) leaves the slot at about 2^256 - start. _supplyStart() then returns that, _backingPerUnit divides by it and returns 0, payoutScale is 0, gemOut is 0 and every later cash in the transaction reverts ZeroAmount; _redemptionRate reads an increase of 0 for them too.

     When amount == start + 1 exactly the slot becomes 0 and reads as 'not checkpointed', which is harmless. Persistent state is not corrupted (the slot is transient, and _laggedSupply is only ever lowered), so the harm is a revert of a composed flow: a router or multicall that borrows or earns and redeems in one transaction, or an early-launch transaction when the supply is small. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix: clamp in Solidity, e.g. uint256 recorded = _transient(SUPPLY_START_SLOT); tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, recorded > amount ? recorded - amount : 1) (a start of zero), and treat amount >= recorded as a start of zero.

     For a position above 200% the term is debt-bound; when the price falls and the position is next touched (its own lock, wipe or free, or ANY third party's cash against it once it is an eligible candidate), the term rises toward its collateral and _lag treats the whole rise as cold capital although nothing arrived: the collateral had been in the vault for days. _backingPerUnit then pays redeemers the lagged figure, which excludes that collateral, for a day after the fall (half of it for six hours), which is exactly when redemptions defend the peg.

     It is the 'safe direction' and not a theft, but it is not 'new capital' either, and a third party can impose it on every eligible candidate with a one-wei cash against each. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix: cold only the part of a term increase that corresponds to capital added in the same call: pass the collateral and principal this call added into _resecure (from lock, lockIMD and draw) and cap the cold increment at added collateral + 2 x added principal / price; a pure re-pricing is then warm, and the comment at 954-957 ('what a position adds is cold') becomes true as written.

   • info_cool NatSpec: the vault total cooled in two steps rounded up can read below a position cooled in one step rounded down, because _pow is not exactly multiplicativesrc/CDPVault.sol:1016

     Q1(a)/(d). The claim is that rounding the vault's totals up and a position's figure down keeps the total at or above the sum of the positions. _pow truncates at every squaring and multiplication, so _pow(d, a) * _pow(d, b) / RAY and _pow(d, a + b) differ by up to a few units in 1e27, and the one-unit ceil cannot cover that gap on an amount of 1e30 raw units (a million sIMD). So laggedNow can read a few thousand raw units (about 2e-27 of the cold) above the honest figure.

     Economically nothing: 2e-27 of any position is below one wei of imdUSD or one raw unit's worth of sIMD. Reported because the comment claims a property the code does not strictly have.

     Fix: reword ('within a few units of'), or make _pow round up when up is set (ceil at each step), which restores the inequality exactly.

     test/scratch/PowMultiplicativity.t.sol test_search (fails on this code): a copy of _pow and _cool with the committed COLD_SECOND_DECAY; amount 1e30, a = 2932 seconds then b = 18215 seconds: _cool(_cool(1e30, 2932, up), 18215, up) is 2,158 raw units BELOW _cool(1e30, 2932 + 18215, down).

     EXPECTED by the NatSpec: the two-step total is never below the one-step position figure.

     ACTUAL: it is, by 2,158 units of 1e30.

   Findings

   • Medium, CDPVault._redemptionRate line 906. The fee base counts cold principal at once. A lock + draw(9,000) one block before someone's cash(90) against a warm supply of 1,000 cuts the quoted fee from 500 bps to 95 bps and sets the base rate to a tenth of honest; a wipe(9,000) the next block puts everything back, with the position's bank empty and nothing lagging. The same works inside one call as wipe(cold D) then cash, because the base floors at the pre-wipe supply, which contradicts the NatSpec's "cold repaid counts at once". Cost is gas and one block of exposure, not seasoned capital. Proof attached (two tests fail on this code, the honest baseline passes). Fix: measure the fee base against warm supply, as backing does, and let cold repaid this transaction reduce the start figure too.
   • Low, CDPVault.bite line 1129. The no-mark, no-grace path keys on the bad-debt record, not on a griefing re-lock. A drained borrower who re-locks 110% of the record is on the ordinary marked path, then a 10% price fall puts them below it and anyone bites at once at the 20% penalty, where an identical position without a record gets a mark and grace. Since cover now takes such a re-lock at par with no liquidator, the shortcut no longer earns its cost. Reproduced in a scratch test.
   • Info, cash line 734. The transient start-supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly sub. After a draw in the same transaction, a redemption larger than the starting supply wraps it, and every later cash in that transaction reverts ZeroAmount. Confined to the caller's own transaction.
   • Info, comment claims (anchored at line 1003). Four places where text and code disagree, listed below.

   Answers to the numbered questions

   1. Cold capital per position. Holds. (a) The vault total cools per step with ceil and a position in one step with floor; a position's quiet day only lowers the sum, and the vault's quiet day implies every position's. I fuzzed the invariant "vault cold total at least the sum of positions' cold, on both sides" over 20,000 handler calls (lock, draw, wipe, free, cash, price moves, warps up to 30 hours) with direct storage reads; it never broke beyond sub-wei _pow rounding. (b) Draw then cancel through cash, bite and cover, in one transaction and across blocks, all leave the newcomer's capital cold (committed retry-panel test plus my bite and cover orderings). Banks are per position and only the owner can increase a position, so nothing moves. (c) A touch only restarts the vault total's quiet day; a position's quiet-day zeroing feeds only its bank split, and the vault total keeps the cold, so round trips are neutral or conservative. One conservative artifact: a position that withdraws after its own quiet day while others kept the vault busy leaves its residual cold orphaned in the vault total until it decays. (d) Saturation is safe in the conservative direction (the total is not capped, the position is), _pow is 17 iterations under the one-day short-circuit and 28 to 35 for the redemption decay, and every unchecked subtraction is guarded.
   2. The bank. No inflation, transfer, trickle, or cross-side revival found. One date per bank set when it fills from empty, expiry checked on the side touched, credit only on the same position's increase. The one over-credit is after the position's own quiet day (the whole amount banks while the continuous figure would leave one sixteenth cold), and it is matched by the orphaned cold in the vault total, so laggedNow is unaffected.
   3. Lagged fee base. The downward direction (pin the fee at the cap) is closed: warm repayments fade, a fresh self-redemption only shrinks the base to the warm supply, which is the honest figure. The upward direction is finding 1. The transien

   • mediumCDPVault._redemptionRate: the fee base counts cold principal at once, so a draw one block before a redemption (or a repayment of cold principal in the same call) dilutes the fee and depresses the basesrc/CDPVault.sol:906

     Q3. The retry panel's medium #5 was fixed by lagging the fee base so a repayment of WARM principal fades out over hours; the stated intent is that moving the base needs seasoned capital. The other direction is open: _laggedSupplyFrom floors the base at start, the live supply when the transaction began, and the live supply includes principal that is zero blocks old.

     1. Across transactions: tx N lock + draw(D) (D cold, held one block); tx N+1 anyone's cash(A) is quoted A / (S + D) / divisor instead of A / S / divisor, and redemptionBaseRate is set from that; tx N+2 wipe(D) (cold principal, _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce removes it at once, the position's bank is empty, nothing lags). The churner's cost is gas, a stability fee on D for ~24 seconds and 1.7 x D of sIMD exposed for one block; the dilution factor is (S + D) / S with D bounded only by the line's room.
     2. In one call, through a contract: wipe(D) of cold principal then cash(A): _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce has already subtracted D from _laggedSupply, but _laggedSupplyFrom(_supplyStart()) returns start = the pre-wipe supply, so the base still contains the cold D. This contradicts the NatSpec at 334-337 and 1427-1429 ('a repayment of cold principal counts at once') for the same transaction, and lets the churn finish inside one call. Who loses: the base rate everyone pays afterwards is a fraction of honest for at least a half-life (12 h); the candidates in the band retain a smaller discount and the reserve pays out more IMD per imdUSD; the fee's job as the redemption throttle is defeated by whoever can open a large cold position for one block. Reachable with the constants as committed at wage 0 (LINE $1M; at launch the supply is small relative to it). Smallest fix: measure the fee base against WARM supply the way backing does: prior = laggedSupply - (totalDebt - laggedNow().debt) (the vault's cold principal), and let cold principal repaid in the current transaction reduce start as well (keep a second tally that _payDebt does not clear, or compute start - coldRepaidThisTx before _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce zeroes the slot). Trade-off to state if adopted: while every unit of supply is cold (the first hours after launch, or after a large honest draw) prior is small and the increase saturates at the cap, which is the lag's accepted direction.

     After those two fixes the bite shortcut is no longer required to clear a griefing re-lock (cover does it at par), but it still removes the mark and the grace from every drained borrower whose collateral is worth less than the record at the moment of the bite, whatever their intent.

     A borrower who re-locks collateral worth 110% of the record (above the record, so marked and given grace like anyone else) and is then moved below the record by a 10% price fall is liquidated by anyone, in the same block, for any debtToRepay the collateral covers, at the 20% penalty, with both bonus shares to the liquidator; an identical position with no record gets bark and up to six hours (NHI >= 0.85) to top up, and the comment's premise at 1123-1124 ('cannot recover by waiting') does not hold, because the same price moving back up returns the position to the marked path.

     The harm is bounded by the re-lock (20% of the collateral bitten); the honest remedy the fix added (cover at value, 0% penalty) is strictly better for the protocol and the borrower than the shortcut. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix: drop the shortcut and require the ordinary mark and grace in bite for every position above dust (the mark costs one bark; grace is already zero whenever NHI <= 0.60), leaving cover's at-value sweep as the permissionless remedy for a re-lock below the record; or, if the shortcut is kept, say in docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md and the borrower docs that a drained borrower must re-lock at least the recorded bad debt's worth in one transaction and keep it above the record.

     whole finding

     ParameterizedVault at $1, NHI 0.60 (mat 200, lull 0, so grace is only the mark).

     B locks 2,000 and draws 1,000; K locks 40,000 and draws 10,000.

     Price to $0.50; bark(B); K bite(B, 833.333e18) drains B (collateral 0, totalBadDebt == debtOf(B) ~166.7).

     Price back to $1; two days (the old mark expires); B lock(1.1 x debtOf(B)) (worth 110% of the record).

     K bite(B, 1e18): reverts MarkExpired (the ordinary path: a fresh bark is needed).

     Price to $0.90: the re-lock is worth 99% of the record.

     K bite(B, 10e18) with no bark: EXPECTED PositionNotMarked / MarkExpired like any other borrower at that ratio.

     ACTUAL: succeeds at once, seizing 10 x 1.2 / 0.9 = 13.3 IMD with both bonus shares to K. test/scratch/CoverSweep.t.sol test_priceMoveBetweenDepositsExposesRebuilder (passes: it pins the behaviour).

   • infoCDPVault.cash: the transient start-supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly `sub`, so a redemption that burns more than the supply the transaction began with wraps it, and every later redsrc/CDPVault.sol:734

     Q3/Q4 transient bookkeeping. SUPPLY_START_SLOT holds the supply at the transaction's first mint or burn plus one. A draw(D) earlier in the same transaction makes the live supply start + D, and _redemptionRate only requires amount <= live, so cash(amount) with amount > start + 1 wraps the slot to ~2^256.

     From then on _supplyStart() reads ~2^256: _backingPerUnit divides by it (payout 0, every further cash in the transaction reverts ZeroAmount) and _redemptionRate reads a zero increase. The effect is confined to the caller's own transaction (transient storage; _laggedSupply is written from the live supply and saturates), so nothing persists and nobody else is affected; a contract that batches a draw with several redemptions is the only victim.

     Smallest fix: saturate, e.g. let s := tload(SUPPLY_START_SLOT) tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, sub(s, mul(amount, lt(amount, s)))), or recompute the slot as max(1, s - amount).

     whole finding

     ParameterizedVault at $1, supply 1,000 all held by an actor contract (Treasury holds IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded).

     One call: draw(9,000), cash(1,002e18, 0, 0) (succeeds, fee at the cap), cash(1e18, 0, 0).

     EXPECTED: the second redemption pays about par less the capped fee.

     ACTUAL: reverts ZeroAmount because _supplyStart() reads 2^256 - 1 and the payout scale is 0.

     Pinned by a scratch test (test_supplyStartSlotWrapsAfterALargeSameTxRedemption, expecting ZeroAmount, passes).

   • infoComments and NatSpec that claim properties the committed code does not have (lag saturation direction, cold repayment and the fee base, the premium bound's parenthetical, the no-grace rationale)src/CDPVault.sol:1003

     (1) 1002-1003 _lag: the position's cold saturates at 2^128 but total (the vault's cold) receives the whole increase, so the excess is COLD in laggedNow until it cools or a quiet day passes; only the position's bank treats it as warm on a later decrease. 'counts as warm' is the opposite direction for the figure that matters (unreachable at sIMD's supply; the direction is the safe one).

     (2) 893-895 _redemptionRate: 'a repayment in it or in the last few hours does not shrink the base' is true only of WARM principal: a repayment of cold principal in an earlier transaction shrinks the base at once (_coldRepaidCountsAtOnce, by design), while in the same call even a cold repayment does not (_laggedSupplyFrom floors at the pre-wipe start), which contradicts 334-337 and 1427-1429 (finding 1 above).

     (3) 768-770 _backingPerUnit, the accepted cross-transaction premium: the formula (supply / (supply - repaid), repayment bounded by principal above half the collateral's value) holds and test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol pins it, but the parenthetical '15% of it at a 170% minimum ratio, 25% at 150%' describes a churner at mat; wipe has no health check, so a position below mat that is unmarked or inside its grace (CR 110%, say) can repay 45% of its principal without moving its term, and several churners add.

     State the bound as the general clause. (4) 1123-1124 bite: 'cannot recover by waiting' is not a property of the position: a price rise that lifts the re-lock above the record returns it to the mark-and-grace path (finding 2 above).

4. Audit economicsAgent #29found 3 low, 2 info

   The review is complete. The source tree is unchanged, .imd-findings.json holds five substantiated findings (three low, two info), and every scratch check fails on the committed code for the reason it states. No high or critical defect was found in the per-position redesign.

   Findings, most severe first

   • Low, _redemptionRate line 906. The lagged fee base lags decreases only. A draw held for one block across transactions (lock and draw; cash; wipe) is charged against the inflated supply and stores a base rate a tenth of the honest one for everyone after. Inside one transaction a cold repayment also stays in the base, although the _laggedSupply NatSpec says it counts at once, so the same wipe and cash charge 0.45% in one call and 4.5% as two. Lagging increases fixes both proofs but fails ten committed redemption tests, because a young vault's supply is all cold. This is a design cost to state, or a trade-off to decide. Proof attached.
   • Low, cash line 734. The transient start supply is lowered with an unchecked assembly sub. A redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with, possible after a draw in the same call, wraps the slot to about 2^256, and every later redemption in that transaction reverts with ZeroAmount. Floor the subtraction in a helper. Proof attached and the fix verified locally.
   • Low, _cool line 1021. A position untouched for a day reads its own cold as zero while the vault total still carries its 1/16. Its repayment then removes nothing from the total, which keeps cold for debt that no longer exists. In the reproduction the helper's warm 100 reads as 37.5 for hours. Conservative for the protocol, but it undercounts every other position's warmth.
   • Info, _cool line 1016. The claim that the rounded-up total never reads below the sum of the positions fails by dust when the total cooled in more steps than a position. The counterexample is 1.7e-27 relative, worth nothing.
   • Info, _laggedSupplyFrom line 1424. An increase that follows a warm repayment is absorbed by the fading excess instead of adding to the base. The documented model gives 74 bps where the code charges 95.

   Answers to the numbered questions

   1. The per-position cold holds. The total is only ever reduced by a position's own cold, so warmth cannot move between positions in either order; the draw-then-cancel and cancel-then-draw sequences, in one transaction or across many, leave the newcomer's debt cold. Activity only slows warming. The saturation, unchecked block and _pow gas are sound. The two deviations are the orphaned residue (low) and rounding dust (info).
   2. The bank cannot be inflated beyond a position's own warm loss, moved, or kept past its day. A secured bank can arise from a price rise with no capital leaving, but the collateral it credits is still in the vault, and the mat cap on cold debt bounds it, so nothing new is warmed.
   3. The base never falls below the live supply. The gaps are the two one-sided cases in the first finding and the absorption note.
   4. The accepted cross-transaction premium is bounded as stated: a round-trippable repayment is at most principal minus half the collateral's value, 15% at mat 170, falling to zero at 200%. No other path raises the live or lagged figure above honest; donations to the reserve and position-funded redemptions only lower or neutralize it.
   5. Cover and bite are consistent through a value sweep. The record is rewritten at the sweep and reduced by the burn, so totalBadDebt and the position's record move together. A rebuilding borrower is paid par rather than a 20% penalty, and the no-grace bite applies only at a collateral value below the recorded loss, which is below roughly 100% CR.
   6. No regressions found in the fresh-debt record, the wage gate, liquidation, the stability fee, price gating or arithmetic. The committed non-invariant suite passes (564 tests, 4 fork tests skipped). ParameterizedVault initcode is 45,981 bytes and runtime 21,

   • lowCDPVault._redemptionRate: the lagged fee base lags decreases only, so a draw held for one block (across transactions) or a cold repayment inside the redeeming transaction dilutes the fee base to a tensrc/CDPVault.sol:906

     Q3. _laggedSupply (lines 334-343) makes a repayment of WARM principal fade out of the fee base over hours, which closes the retry panel's medium #5 (wipe, cash, draw). It is one-sided: an increase counts at once (_checkpointSupply sets _laggedSupply = _laggedSupplyFrom(start) and the mint lands on top; _laggedSupplyFrom returns start whenever _laggedSupply <= start), and a repayment of COLD principal is removed at once across transactions (_coldRepaidCountsAtOnce) but NOT inside the transaction that redeems: _redemptionRate reads prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(_supplyStart()), _supplyStart() is the supply the transaction began with, cold principal included, and _laggedSupplyFrom floors at it. Two consequences, both the mirror image of the medium the fix answered.

     1. Across transactions, in one block: tx1 lock + draw(D); tx2 cash(X) charged against supply S + D; tx3 wipe(D) (cold, zero seconds of fee) + free. The increase is X / (S + D) / divisor instead of X / S / divisor and redemptionBaseRate is stored from it for everyone after.
     2. In one transaction: tx1 draw(D); tx2 wipe(D) then cash(X) in one call: the same figure, where the same two calls as two transactions charge X / S / divisor (the proof shows 0.45% against 4.5%). The _laggedSupply NatSpec ('a repayment of cold principal counts at once ... otherwise a draw repaid one transaction later would have inflated the base and lowered every fee', 334-337 and 1427-1429) states the property the cross-transaction path has and the same-transaction path lacks; _redemptionRate's NatSpec (893-895) states the opposite ('a repayment in it ... does not shrink the base') and the project's own test test_aSameTransactionRepaymentDoesNotShrinkTheFeeBase pins the same-call figure for a COLD churner, so the two descriptions contradict each other. Cost to the attacker: gas and sIMD worth 1.7 x D held for one block (no fee, no price exposure); D is bounded by the line ($1M at launch) less the open debt, so with a small launch supply a holder of ~$1.7M sIMD can dilute the base to the line. Who loses: the redeemer's fee (up to the cap less the floor, 4.5% of X) is value that would have stayed in the reserve or the candidate position; and the stored base rate, the mechanism that slows a redemption run and makes the b952037a pump expensive, is reset low on demand (95 bps for everyone instead of 500 in the proof). Reachable with the constants as committed, at wage 0, no governance. I verified locally that lagging increases too (subtracting the vault's cold principal plus the cold principal repaid this transaction, less principal minted this transaction, from prior) makes the attached proof pass, but it fails ten committed redemption tests because a young vault's supply is all cold and every early redemption would then pay the cap: counting increases at once is a design choice with this cost. Smallest change if the cost is accepted: state it at 334-343 and 893-895 (a draw held across one block dilutes the base; a cold repayment counts at once only from the next transaction) and drop the claim at 1427-1429 that the cold rule prevents the inflation. If it is not: lag increases with the per-position cold (prior -= min(prior, coldNow + coldRepaidThisTx - mintedThisTx)), accepting the cap on redemptions while the whole supply is cold.

   • lowCDPVault.cash: the transient start-of-transaction supply is lowered with an unchecked assembly `sub`, which wraps when a redemption exceeds the supply the transaction began with, so every later redempsrc/CDPVault.sol:734

     Q3/Q4, the transient bookkeeping.

     SUPPLY_START_SLOT holds the imdUSD supply the transaction began with, plus one (_checkpointSupply). _redemptionRate only requires amount <= stablecoin.totalSupply() (the LIVE supply, line 902), and the live supply exceeds the start supply inside a transaction that minted first (a draw or earn before the cash). cash then executes sub(start + 1, amount) in assembly with no floor; for amount > start + 1 the slot wraps to about 2^256 (and for amount == start + 1 to exactly 0, which _checkpointSupply reads as 'not recorded' and re-checkpoints mid-transaction from the post-burn supply).

     For the rest of the transaction _supplyStart() returns the wrapped figure: _backingPerUnit reads supply = max(live, start) of about 2^256, perUnit rounds to 0, payoutScale is 0, gemOut is 0 and every further cash reverts ZeroAmount; _redemptionRate reads prior of about 2^256 and quotes a zero increase (the view redemptionFeeBps too, for a caller in that transaction).

     Transient storage is cleared when the transaction ends, so no storage is corrupted and nothing is extracted; the defect is that a legitimate single-transaction flow (a router that locks, draws and redeems more than the pre-existing supply, then redeems again: a leverage loop, a batched exit) is refused with an error indistinguishable from an empty reserve, and the arithmetic contradicts the line's own comment ('counts at once, across transactions and inside this one').

     Reachable with the constants as committed: it only needs a draw larger than the existing supply in the same transaction as the redemptions, ordinary at launch (small supply, $1M line).

     Smallest fix: floor the subtraction, e.g. uint256 start = _supplyStart(); start = start > amount ? start - amount : 0; then tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, add(start, 1)) (in a small private helper: an extra local in cash itself hits stack-too-deep).

     Verified locally: with that change the attached proof passes and the committed suite is unchanged.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/SupplyStartWrap.t.sol (attached as proof; fails on this code).

     ParameterizedVault at $1, NHI 0.85, Treasury holds 5,000 IMD.

     OTHER locks 200 and draws 100 (supply 100); two quiet days.

     A router contract holds 10,000 IMD.

     Control, as separate transactions: router lock(2,000) + draw(900); cash(500, 0, 0) pays a1 > 0; cash(100, 0, 0) pays b1 > 0.

     Snapshot reverted.

     Then in ONE transaction: lock(2,000), draw(900), cash(500), cash(100).

     EXPECTED: both redemptions pay (a == a1, b > 0).

     ACTUAL: the call reverts ZeroAmount() in the second cash: after the first, SUPPLY_START_SLOT = (100e18 + 1) - 500e18 wrapped, _supplyStart() is about 2^256 and _backingPerUnit is 0.

   • lowCDPVault._lag / _cool: a position untouched for a day reads its own cold as zero while the vault total still holds its 1/16, so its repayment leaves that cold in the total for debt that no longer exissrc/CDPVault.sol:1021

     Q1(a)/(c). _cool returns 0 for any elapsed >= BACKING_WARMUP. For the vault total that is the designed 'quiet day credits in full' rule, and a touch of any position restarts it. For a position the same rule runs on the position's OWN elapsed (block.timestamp - position.coldAt, line 971), so a position left untouched for a day reads its cold as zero even when the vault total, touched by others, still carries that position's residual (1/16 after exactly a day).

     The total is therefore above the sum of the positions, which the NatSpec calls the safe direction (1015-1016), but the decrease path then takes coldOut = min(cold, out) with cold == 0 (lines 987-989): nothing leaves the total, the whole repayment is banked as warm, and the position's residual stays in _coldDebt / _coldSecured as cold for debt and collateral that no longer exist, halving every six hours and zeroed only by a quiet vault day.

     Effect: laggedNow reads the OTHER positions' warm capital short by that residual (62.5 of the helper's 100 in the reproduction), so ParameterizedVault.backedDebt / earnLine and the lagged _backingPerUnit figure are below honest for hours.

     The direction is conservative for the protocol (I checked that a healthy position's residual lowers the lagged backing in both the collateral-bound and the mat-bound regime, since 1.7 > backing), so this is a griefing / accuracy defect rather than an extraction: a borrower who holds D for a day while the vault stays active, repays, and immediately redraws (credited warm from its bank, so its own position is unaffected) leaves D/16 of phantom cold behind each time; with D equal to the honest debt that is about 6% off the lagged backing and the work ceiling for about a day, for one day of stability fee on D (0.012%) and gas.

     No capability beyond what simply holding D cold already does, but it outlives the capital. The claim at 1016-1018 ('A touch only ever restarts that day, so activity can slow warming but never speed it') holds; the claim implicit in the per-position design, that a position's quiet day 'is its own', does not: it is its own for the position's figures and not for the total the position's decrease is applied to.

     Smallest fix: cool a position's figures continuously (apply the half-life for any elapsed, without the >= BACKING_WARMUP short-circuit; _pow stays bounded at about 27 squarings for any realistic gap), so a position's cold is never below its share of the total and a decrease always removes what the position actually contributed; keep the quiet-day zeroing for the total only (when the total has been zeroed, a position's leftover only lowers what is banked, the safe direction).

   • infoCDPVault._cool: the claim that the rounded-up vault total never reads below the sum of the positions' cold is violated by dust when the total has cooled in more steps than a positionsrc/CDPVault.sol:1016

     Q1(a)/(d). Rounding the total up and a position down holds step for step, but _pow truncates at every multiply, so pow(e1) x pow(e2) / RAY and pow(e1 + e2) differ by up to about 1e-21 relatively (the error of each squaring doubles, 17 squarings for a day of seconds), in either direction.

     The total is cooled at every touch of any position while a position is cooled only at its own touches, so the two go through different step sequences and floor(amount x pow(e1+e2)) can exceed ceil(ceil(amount x pow(e1)) x pow(e2)).

     Bound: about 1e-21 of the amount, i.e. under 1e4 wei of a $1M principal and about 1e-19 sIMD of a 1e6 sIMD term, worth nothing; laggedNow can read above honest by that much and a decrease can push total to its saturating zero by that much. Not a defect to fix; the NatSpec should say 'never below the sum but for rounding of order 1e-21'.

   • infoCDPVault._laggedSupply NatSpec: an increase does not count at once while a warm repayment is fading; it is absorbed by the fading excess, so redeemers after a large warm repayment pay more than the dosrc/CDPVault.sol:1424

     Q3, the documentation half. _laggedSupply is stored as an ABSOLUTE supply figure; _laggedSupplyFrom(start) decays the difference _laggedSupply - start. After a warm repayment of W the stored figure is the pre-repayment supply S and the live supply S - W, so the base is S - W + fading(W) as documented (334-337).

     An increase of E that follows (another borrower's draw, an earn) raises start to S - W + E, and the excess becomes W - E: the increase is swallowed by the fading repayment rather than added on top, until the excess has faded. The NatSpec says 'an increase counts at once'; the code gives max(live, decaying high-water mark), which is the same thing only while nothing is fading.

     Direction: the base is lower than the documented model, never below the live supply, so the fee is HIGHER than documented (95 bps instead of 74 in the reproduction) for the hours a dominant repayment takes to fade; no attacker gains (the attacker's own redraw is absorbed the same way and the figure after a wipe-and-redraw is exactly the pre-churn supply, arguably the more honest answer).

     Reword 334-337 to 'the base is the larger of the live supply and the last checkpointed supply decaying toward it', or store the excess separately if the documented model is wanted.

   All checks are complete. The source tree is unchanged (the temporary fix patch was reverted after verification), the committed suite passes as a baseline, and .imd-findings.json holds four substantiated findings with the one proof attached to the medium.

   Findings

   Severity	Where	Claim
   medium	src/CDPVault.sol:1417, the supply checkpoint and _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce	A cold draw by any position absorbs a warm repayment's fading share of the lagged fee base at the next checkpoint, and its cold repayment is then subtracted a second time. A dominant borrower's wipe, a helper's draw-and-wipe (one call, no fee, no wait) and a 9-of-1,000 redemption pin the fee at the cap for a tenth of the honest burn. This reopens the retry panel's medium #5 at gas cost; the committed regression test passes only because its redraw is credited from the same position's bank. Proof attached and verified to pass with the described fix (cold mints and earns count at once in the base; a bank-credited redraw adds only what is not still fading), with the retry-panel, lag, redemption, cover, liquidation and invariant suites green.
   low	src/CDPVault.sol:769, the accepted premium's NatSpec	The bound is stated as supply over supply less repaid. The lagged denominator is supply less fresh, so with cold debt outstanding the premium is (supply − fresh)/(supply − fresh − repaid). Measured: a 3.62% premium where the stated bound allows 2.39%. The acceptance stands; its stated cost does not.
   low	src/CDPVault.sol:734, cash	The start-of-transaction supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly sub. A redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with (minted earlier in the same call) wraps it, so later quotes in that transaction read a ~2^256 supply, backing reads 0 and a second cash reverts ZeroAmount. No profit path; a router that mints and redeems in one call is blocked.
   info	src/CDPVault.sol:1016, _cool	"Rounded up so the totals never read below the sum of the positions" is not guaranteed: _pow truncates at every squaring, and a total cooled once per block for a day reads about 1.1e-24 of the amount below a position cooled once. Dust, quantified in the entry.

   Answers to the six questions

   1. Cold capital per position. (a) Holds up to the truncation above. The total is cooled at every touch, each position at its own; a position's quiet day zeroes its cold while the total keeps up to a 6.25% residue under activity, which only understates warmth. Probe: after 25 touched hours the lag read 1,953.76 of 2,010, and a day-old position's wipe-and-redraw left the total exactly where it was. (b) No sequence found. Draw-then-bite left 700.4 warm (the honest residue plus half of a six-hour-old draw), draw-then-cover left 0, and the committed cash-order proofs pass. (c) Activity only slows warming; a debt-free lock changes no term and is not a touch at all. The one asymmetry is the exact 24-hour boundary (cold zero at ≥ 24h, bank alive until > 24h), one second wide. (d) Saturation keeps the excess in the vault total, the safe direction; every subtraction in the unchecked block is guarded; _pow cannot overflow and costs at most 17 squarings for the cold.
   2. The bank. Not inflatable: it is filled only by the warm part of a decrease after the position's own cold is cooled to now. It lives in the position's struct and nothing moves it. One date per bank set only on empty-to-full, so a trickle and the other side cannot keep it alive. One cost to state: a liquidation or cover banks the drained term, so a re-lock within a day reads warm at once. It costs real collateral behind recorded bad debt, taken at par by cover or at the bonus by bite, so no profit was found.
   3. The lagged fee base. Broken below the honest supply at gas cost (the medium). Above it needs warm capital, which needs a position's own day. Wipe-then-cash, cash-then-wipe, bite, cover, earn and fee remints we

   • mediumCDPVault lagged fee base: a cold draw by any position absorbs a warm repayment's fading share at the next checkpoint, and the cold repayment is subtracted again, so the base collapses to the live suppsrc/CDPVault.sol:1417

     Q3 (the lagged fee base), a gap left by the fix for the retry panel's medium #5. _laggedSupply (L) is meant to hold the live supply plus the fading share of every WARM repayment, so that a dominant borrower's wipe cannot shrink the fee base for a redemption a transaction later. Two rules of the bookkeeping contradict each other.

     (1) A mint never touches L (_mintOrBurn only checkpoints), so at the NEXT checkpoint _laggedSupplyFrom(start) measures the excess as L - start against a live supply that the mint has raised: a cold draw (or an earn) of M absorbs M of the warm repayment's fading share. (2) _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce then subtracts a cold repayment from L in full, although the mint it repays was never added to L.

     Net effect of a cold draw-and-repay of M by ANY position: L falls by min(M, excess).

     Call sequence (launch constants, wage 0, divisor 2; BORROWER holds 900 of a 1,000 supply as its own seasoned debt, OTHER 100; the Treasury holds 100 IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded): tx1 BORROWER.wipe(900e18): warm, banks 900, live 100, L stays 1,000 (excess 900, as designed: redemptionFeeBps(9e18) still quotes 95). tx2 a helper position (any key, or a contract doing it in one call) lock(2000e18), draw(900e18), wipe(900e18): at the draw's checkpoint L = 100 + cool(900) = 999.6, mint -> live 1,000; at the wipe _lag retires 899.6 of cold principal into COLD_REPAID_SLOT, the burn checkpoints (same tx: no-op) or re-checkpoints L = max(1000, 999.6) = 1,000, live -> 100, _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce sets L = 1,000 - 899.6 = 100.4. tx3 anyone cash(9e18, 0, address(0)): _redemptionRate reads prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(100) = 100.4, increase = 9 / 100.4 / 2 = 4.48%: redemptionBaseRate is set to the 4.5% cap (0.04489e18) where the honest base of ~1,000 gives 0.0045e18. tx4 BORROWER.draw(900e18): credited from its bank, warm, the position is exactly where it started.

     Cost: gas, one block, no seasoned capital (the helper's debt lived for one call and paid no fee; the helper can even use the collateral BORROWER freed after its wipe) and 0.45 imdUSD of fee against the honest 4.5 for the same pin (9% of supply at 5%).

     Who loses: every later redeemer pays 500 bps instead of 50 for a half-life or two (12-hour decay), the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) sits at 0.95 on demand, and a candidate can deter redemptions against itself; repeatable every half-life. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance; needs one large position, as before (LINE is $1M at launch).

     The regression test test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol test_adjacentWipeCashDrawPinsTheFeeBase passes only because its redraw is credited from the same position's bank (warm), so no cold principal is ever retired. NatSpec the code does not have: CDPVault.sol 334-337 ('an increase counts at once ... a repayment of warm principal only as it ages') and 1427-1429 ('Otherwise a draw repaid one transaction later left the base inflated ...

     Only warm repayments lag'): a cold draw repaid one transaction later now DEFLATES the base by the warm share it absorbed.

     Smallest fix, verified locally (the attached proof passes; test/retry-panel, LaggedBacking, Redemption*, RedemptionFeePinning, Cover, StabilityFee, Liquidation, BadDebtSweep, Adversarial, BoundaryPaths, ProtocolSequences, WorkCeiling, InHouse, LaunchAuditFixes and the Redemption invariant stay green): make increases count at once in L as the NatSpec says, so a cold repayment's subtraction is matched by its mint's addition.

     In _lag's increase branch for the debt side, tally after_ - before - _cool(credit, block.timestamp - bankAt, false) into a new transient slot (the whole increase, less only the bank-credited part that is still in the base as a fading repayment); in draw, after _mintOrBurn, add the amount this call tallied to _laggedSupply; in earn, add amount to _laggedSupply and to the slot; in _redemptionRate, subtract the slot's total from prior so supply created in the same trans

     BORROWER locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives BORROWER 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD; two quiet days (the 900 is warm); supply 1,000, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) == 95.

   • lowCDPVault._backingPerUnit: the accepted cross-transaction premium is stated as at most supply / (supply - repaid), but the lagged figure's denominator is supply - fresh, so with cold debt outstanding tsrc/CDPVault.sol:769

     Q4, the bound check the task asks for on the accepted medium (retry panel #4); the premium itself is not re-reported. _backingPerUnit returns min(live, lagged) with lagged = (reserve + warm secured) * 1e18 / (supply - fresh), where fresh = totalDebt - laggedNow().debt is the cold principal.

     Below par the lagged figure binds, so a warm borrower's repayment R one transaction earlier (its term unchanged, 170-200% band) scales that figure by (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - R), not by supply / (supply - R) as the NatSpec, the retry panel's resolution table and test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol (which pins the bound with fresh == 0) state. The two coincide only when no debt is cold.

     The churner must itself be warm (a cold churner's repayment lowers fresh by the same R and the denominator does not move), so R is bounded by 15% of the WARM principal it holds, and the true bound on the premium is 1 / (1 - 0.15 * s_w) where s_w is the churner's share of the warm supply: 17.6% for a churner that is the whole warm supply, where supply / (supply - repaid) suggests at most 15% of its share of the whole supply.

     Whenever a large part of the supply is fresh (launch, or after a large draw by anyone), the stated bound understates what a redeemer paid out of the Treasury's reserve and out of the other holders' backing. Not a bypass of the acceptance: the cost (gas, below par only, bounded by the churner's warm principal) stands; the bound stated for it does not.

     Smallest fix: state the bound as (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - repaid), with fresh the cold principal laggedNow excludes, in the _backingPerUnit NatSpec, docs/AUDIT-RETRY-PANEL-VAULT-2026-10-07.md's resolution and the retry-panel test's assertion (which should pin the bound with fresh debt present), or make the lagged denominator read the supply the churn left in it by adding the position's banked warm principal (its bankDebt, while unexpired) back to supply - fresh for the lagged figure.

   • lowCDPVault.cash: the start-of-transaction supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly sub, so a redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with (minted earlier in the same call) wsrc/CDPVault.sol:734

     Q3/Q4, the transient bookkeeping across several mints and burns in one transaction. SUPPLY_START_SLOT holds start + 1, the supply at the transaction's first mint or burn. cash subtracts its burn so a second redemption in the same transaction measures against the shrunken supply.

     The subtraction is an unchecked assembly sub: amount is only bounded by the LIVE supply (_redemptionRate: amount > totalSupply reverts), and a draw or earn earlier in the transaction raises the live supply above start, so a redemption of more than start wraps the slot to about 2^256 - (amount - start).

     Until the transaction ends, _supplyStart() returns that figure: _backingPerUnit takes supply = max(live, start) ~ 2^256, so perUnit rounds to 0 and backingPerUnit() reads 0 in a fully backed vault; _redemptionRate takes prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(~2^256) and quotes the floor with no increase (redemptionFeeBps 50 where the honest quote carries the increase); a second cash computes gemOut = 0 and reverts ZeroAmount; if the wrap lands on exactly zero (amount == start + 1) the slot reads as 'not recorded' and the next _mintOrBurn re-checkpoints _laggedSupply and the start supply from the mid-transaction live supply.

     Reachable with the constants as committed by any router or helper contract that mints and redeems in one call; no profit path was found (a cash at the wrapped figure pays nothing, so the only effects are the revert and the wrong quotes mid-transaction, and the transient slot is cleared at the end of the call), hence low.

     Smallest fix: saturate at the transaction's floor, e.g. in assembly let recorded := tload(SUPPLY_START_SLOT) switch gt(recorded, amount) case 1 { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, sub(recorded, amount)) } default { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, 1) } (keep the +1 sentinel so the slot never reads as unrecorded), which also matches the saturating update of _laggedSupply on the line before it.

   • infoCDPVault._cool: 'rounded up for the vault's totals, so they never read below the sum of the positions' is not guaranteed, because _pow truncates at every squaring and a total cooled touch by touch lossrc/CDPVault.sol:1016

     Q1(a) and (d), a NatSpec claim the arithmetic does not quite deliver. The vault's cold totals are cooled at every touch of any position (_lag line 969) with _cool(..., up = true), while a position's own cold is cooled once, at its next touch, over the whole gap, with up = false.

     The ceiling only guarantees total >= sum when the decay factor composes exactly, and _pow does not: each result * factor / one and factor * factor / one truncates, so _pow(f, a) * _pow(f, b) / RAY can read below _pow(f, a + b), and a chain of many short cools reads lower still.

     Measured on the committed constants: one cool of 86,400 s gives 62499999999999999999995426 / 1e27, 7,200 cools of 12 s give 62499999999999999999994326 / 1e27, 1,100 parts in 1e27 lower; the ceiling adds at most one raw unit per touch (7,200 units) against it, so for a cold secured term above about 6.5e27 raw units (about 6,500 sIMD at 24 decimals, roughly $52,000) a total touched once a block for a day reads below the position's own cold by one or more raw units.

     Consequence: when such a position subtracts its cold (total = total > coldOut ? total - coldOut : 0, line 989) the vault total saturates to zero while another position still holds cold of that dust size, which laggedNow then reads as warm. The shortfall is bounded by about 1e-24 of the cold amount per day of per-block touches (1e-18 sIMD on a million-sIMD term): no economic effect, so info.

     Also checked and holding: the unchecked block in _lag (every subtraction guarded by the comparison or min before it; bank + (out - coldOut) cannot wrap for any representable position; the uint128 saturation keeps the excess in the vault total, which is the safe direction); _pow's bound (factor and result at most one, products below 1e54 for RAY, below 1e36 for 1e18); and its gas over long gaps (at most 17 squarings for the cold, elapsed being capped by BACKING_WARMUP, and about 27 for the fee base over a year of quiet).

     Smallest fix: reword the claim ('rounded up so that the position's share is never read above the total, to within the truncation of _pow'), or compute the vault totals' decay with a rounding-up _pow (round each product up) so the totals dominate by construction.

     Python, integer arithmetic, the committed constants (COLD_SECOND_DECAY = 999967910367635122012970996, RAY = 1e27, the _pow loop as written): pow(f, 86400) = 62499999999999999999995426; the product of 7200 successive pow(f, 12) factors, each applied with floor division by RAY as _cool does, = 62499999999999999999994326 (1,100 parts in 1e27 lower); over 2,000 random splits a + b <= 86,399, pow(f, a) * pow(f, b) / RAY is below pow(f, a + b) by up to 2 parts in 1e27. For a position whose cold secured term is 1e30 raw units (a million sIMD) cooled once over a day the position reads floor(1e30 * 0.0625 - 5.4e-21 * 1e30) while a total cooled 7,200 times reads at most 1e30 * 0.0625 - 1.1e-21 * 1e30 + 7200, i.e. about 1.1e6 raw units below the position's figure.

6. Audit judgeAgent #1860found 3 medium, 5 low, 2 info

   The review is complete. .imd-findings.json holds ten findings, every one re-run against commit 24337a2 by me; no source files were changed (git status shows nothing tracked modified — test/scratch/ and the findings file are ignored).

   What I kept, after merging the four specialists' 19 findings

   Medium (3, each with a proof that fails on this code):

   • _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce, line 1437 — the fee base is stored as an absolute figure, so a cold draw by any position absorbs a warm repayment's fading share and the cold repayment subtracts it again. Wipe 900 warm → helper draw/wipe 900 → cash 9 pins the fee at the cap for 0.45 imdUSD instead of 4.5. Merged audit_flow + audit_math (+ audit_economics' documentation half); audit_flow's proof attached, audit_math's fails identically.
   • _lag, line 992 — a one-block return empties the bank and the next departure re-dates it, so a once-seasoned position keeps its warmth forever while its capital is present one block in 23 hours (the "permanent option" the panel rated medium before, by a new path). audit_math's proof attached.
   • _redemptionRate, line 906 — the mirror of the first: a cold draw held one block (or repaid in the redeeming call) dilutes the fee from 500 bps to 95 and resets everyone's base rate. Merged audit_permissions + audit_economics. I wrote a tolerant proof, because audit_permissions' asserted an exact figure a reasonable fix would miss by rounding. The trade-off audit_economics measured (early redemptions at the cap while all supply is cold) is stated.

   Low (5): the unchecked sub on SUPPLY_START_SLOT (all four specialists; merged, severity settled at low since nothing persists); the accepted premium's bound is (supply − fresh)/(supply − fresh − repaid), not supply/(supply − repaid) — 3.62% vs the stated 2.39% in the panel's own fixture (the Q4 bound check); a price fall re-prices a debt-bound term as cold (underpays redeemers for a day); orphaned cold in the vault total after a quiet-day position repays; the bite shortcut taking a rebuilder between tranches or after a price dip.

   Info (2): _pow is not exactly multiplicative, so the "never below the sum" claim fails by ~1e-27 (three specialists; confirmed with integer arithmetic); and a merged list of nine NatSpec claims the code does not have, with the answers to Q1–Q6 where nothing is wrong and the coverage statement.

   Dropped or changed

   • Nothing failed to reproduce. audit_permissions' separate "same-call cold wipe then cash" item is folded into the dilution finding (same mechanism, one line); audit_permissions' NatSpec note on the premium parenthetical is folded into the bound finding.
   • I did not implement any fix in src/ (review task). The fee-base fix I describe is the excess-over-live model; audit_flow reports its equivalent variant passed the proof and the committed suites locally.

   Verification: committed suite baseline 588 passed / 0 failed / 4 skipped; all six attached proof tests fail for their stated reasons; my six scratch tests fail (or pin) as described; every snippet checked against the tree.

   • mediumCDPVault lagged fee base: a cold draw by any position absorbs a warm repayment's fading share, and the cold repayment is then subtracted again, so the base collapses to the live supply and the fee is src/CDPVault.sol:1437

     Q3; a gap left by the fix for the retry panel's medium #5 (merged from audit_flow 2f12b4a4 and audit_math a73695b7; audit_economics cba55ee9 is the documentation half of the same mechanism). _laggedSupply is stored as an ABSOLUTE figure and _laggedSupplyFrom(start) reads max(start, start + cool(_laggedSupply - start)). Two rules contradict each other.

     (1) A mint never touches _laggedSupply (_mintOrBurn only checkpoints), so at the next checkpoint the fading excess is measured against a live supply the mint has raised: a cold draw (or an earn) of M absorbs M of the warm repayment's share. (2) _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce (line 1437) then subtracts a cold repayment from _laggedSupply in full, although the mint it repays was never added to it.

     Net effect of a cold draw-and-repay of M by ANY position: the base falls by min(M, excess).

     Call sequence (launch constants, wage 0, divisor 2; BORROWER holds 900 of a 1,000 supply as seasoned debt, OTHER 100; the Treasury holds IMD so the redemption is reserve-funded): tx1 BORROWER wipe(900e18): warm, banked, live 100, _laggedSupply 1,000 (redemptionFeeBps(9e18) still 95, as designed). tx2 any position (a contract in one call, or an EOA in three transactions) lock(2000e18), draw(900e18), wipe(900e18): the draw's checkpoint sets _laggedSupply = 100 + cool(900) = 999.6, the mint lifts live to 1,000; the wipe's _lag retires 899.6 of cold principal into COLD_REPAID_SLOT and _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce sets _laggedSupply = 1,000 - 899.6 = 100.4, live 100. tx3 anyone cash(9e18, 0, address(0)): _redemptionRate reads prior 100.4 and increase 9 / 100.4 / 2 = 4.48%: redemptionBaseRate is set to the 4.5% cap where the honest base of 1,000 gives 0.0045e18. tx4 BORROWER draw(900e18), credited warm from its bank: the position is exactly where it started.

     The same erasure works through cash against the cold helper instead of its wipe.

     Cost: gas, one block, no seasoned capital (the helper can even use the collateral BORROWER freed) and 0.45 imdUSD of fee against the honest 4.5 (a burn of 9% of supply).

     Who loses: every later redeemer pays 500 bps instead of 50 for a half-life or two; the peg floor min(1 - fee, backing) sits at 0.95 on demand; a candidate can deter redemptions against itself; repeatable every half-life. Reachable with the constants as committed, no governance; needs one large position (LINE is $1M at launch).

     The regression test test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol test_adjacentWipeCashDrawPinsTheFeeBase passes only because its redraw is credited from the same position's bank (warm), so no cold principal is ever retired.

     NatSpec the code does not have: lines 334-337 ('an increase counts at once ... a repayment of warm principal only as it ages, its excess halving every BACKING_HALF_LIFE'; an increase is in fact absorbed by the fading excess, so after a warm repayment of W and a new draw of E the base is max(live, fading high-water mark), not live + fading W), 893-895 ('a repayment in it or in the last few hours does not shrink the base') and 1427-1429 ('Only warm repayments lag').

     Smallest fix: keep the lag as an EXCESS over the live supply rather than an absolute figure. At each checkpoint cool the excess; at every repayment burn (_payDebt, cover) add principalPaid - coldRepaid to it; on a draw subtract the part credited from the position's bank (the same supply returning; floor at zero) and nothing else; leave it untouched by other mints, by redemptions and by cold repayments; prior = start + cooled excess.

     A mint can then not absorb it and a cold repayment cannot subtract from it, while a wipe-and-redraw by the same position still nets to the pre-churn supply. (audit_flow verified an equivalent variant locally: tally increases into the lagged figure at once, less the bank-credited part, so a cold repayment's subtraction is matched by its mint's addition; the attached proof and the committed redemption, retry-panel, lag, cover, liquidation and invariant suites s

     BORROWER locks 2,000 and draws 900; OTHER locks 200, draws 100 and gives BORROWER 9 imdUSD; the Treasury holds 100 IMD; two quiet days; supply 1,000, redemptionFeeBps(9e18) == 95.

     Test 1: BORROWER wipe(900e18) [tx 1]; a helper contract calls lock(2000e18), draw(900e18), wipe(900e18) in one transaction [tx 2]; supply back at ~100.

     EXPECTED: redemptionFeeBps(9e18) <= 96 and, after cash(9e18, 0, address(0)), redemptionBaseRate <= 0.0046e18.

   • mediumCDPVault._lag: a bank credited in full by a one-block visit is re-dated when the capital leaves again, so a once-seasoned position keeps its warmth indefinitely while its capital is in the vault one bsrc/CDPVault.sol:992

     Q2 and Q1(b) (from audit_math 73d81e30). The retry panel's medium #3 was answered with one date per bank, 'set only when that bank goes from empty to full', so that a bank expires one warm-up after the capital first left. But a return credits the bank down to zero (lines 996-997), and the next departure finds bank == 0 and dates the refilled bank at that moment (line 992).

     A position that seasoned its capital once can therefore leave, come back for a single transaction every 23 hours (lock + draw, credited in full on both sides), leave in the next transaction (banked again, re-dated) and never warm up again: the capital is in the vault one block out of every 23 hours, forever.

     That is exactly the D1 round trip the lag exists to close, for anyone who has held a position for one day at any time in the past: bring the capital in (tx N), redeem reserve IMD at the lifted backing or earn against the lifted ceiling (tx N+1), withdraw (tx N+2), with the capital exposed to price and liquidation for one block per cycle.

     Reachable with the constants as committed: the redemption half at wage 0 (_backingPerUnit's lagged figure reads min(held, lagSecured) and supply - fresh with the returning capital warm), the ceiling half once a wage is set. Bounded by what the position once held warm, hence medium, as the panel rated the same 'permanent option' (its #3).

     NatSpec the code does not have: lines 318-319 ('capital brought in one transaction and withdrawn a few later cannot authorise work minting or a redemption at par'), 759-760 ('An attacker's capital can raise the live figure but not the lagged one, whichever position it sits in'), 963-964 ('a bank only ever returns warmth to the position that lost it, within BACKING_WARMUP of the moment it first filled, whatever is added to it later').

     Smallest fix that keeps the design: let a bank COOL while it waits, at the lag's own half-life, and credit only what is left: credit = min(increase, _cool(bank, block.timestamp - bankAt, false)), the expiry becoming the natural zero at BACKING_WARMUP.

     A borrower's ordinary wipe-and-redraw minutes apart is still credited almost whole; capital away for 23 hours comes back about 7% warm; a one-block visit cannot re-arm it, because the refilled bank holds only what was credited and is dated at the departure.

     whole proof

   • mediumCDPVault._redemptionRate: the fee base counts cold principal at once, so a draw held for one block (or a cold repayment inside the redeeming call) dilutes the fee to the floor and resets the base ratesrc/CDPVault.sol:906

     Q3, the other direction (merged from audit_permissions f1f7755a and audit_economics ddd10333). The lagged fee base lags DECREASES of warm principal only. _laggedSupplyFrom floors the base at start, the live supply when the transaction began, and the live supply includes principal that is zero blocks old; _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce removes a cold repayment across transactions but not inside the transaction that redeems, because _redemptionRate reads _laggedSupplyFrom(_supplyStart()) and _supplyStart() is the pre-wipe supply.

     1. Across transactions, one block: tx N lock + draw(D); tx N+1 anyone's cash(A) is quoted A / (S + D) / divisor instead of A / S / divisor, and redemptionBaseRate is stored from it for everyone after; tx N+2 wipe(D) (cold, _coldRepaidCountsAtOnce, the position's bank is empty, nothing lags).
     2. In one call through a contract: wipe(D) of cold principal then cash(A): _laggedSupply has already lost D but the floor at start still holds it, which contradicts lines 334-336 and 1427-1429 ('a repayment of cold principal counts at once') for the same transaction and lets the churn finish inside one call; as two transactions the same calls charge A / S / divisor. Cost: gas, a stability fee on D for one block (0.012% a day at DUTY_BPS) and 1.7 x D of sIMD exposed for one block; D is bounded only by the line's room ($1M at launch against a small supply). Who loses: the redeemer's fee (up to the 4.5% between cap and floor on A) is value that would have stayed in the reserve or the candidate position, and the stored base rate, the throttle that slows a redemption run and makes the b952037a pump expensive, is reset low on demand (95 bps for everyone instead of 500 in the proof), repeatable every half-life. Reachable with the constants as committed, wage 0, no governance. It is the mirror image of the retry panel's medium #5 and of the finding above. NatSpec: 334 ('an increase counts at once') states the rule, but the requester's own Q3 property ('no sequence moves the base ... above [honest] without seasoned capital held for hours') does not hold, and 893-895 / 1427-1429 contradict each other for the same-call case. Smallest fix: measure the fee base against WARM supply the way backing does, prior = _laggedSupplyFrom(start) - (totalDebt - laggedNow().debt) - coldRepaidThisTransaction (a tally _payDebt does not clear), saturating at zero (which quotes the cap, the lag's accepted direction). Trade-off to decide: while every unit of supply is cold (the first hours after launch, or right after a large honest draw) prior is small and early redemptions pay the cap; audit_economics measured ten committed redemption tests failing under that rule. If the cost is refused, state at 334-343 and 893-895 that a draw held across one block dilutes the base and that a cold repayment counts at once only from the next transaction, and drop the claim at 1427-1429 that the cold rule prevents the inflation.

     whole finding

     test/scratch/FeeDilution.t.sol (attached as proof; mine, a tolerant rewrite of audit_permissions' Proof_f1f7755a6131, which fails identically but asserts an exact 0.045e18 that a fix cooling the cold principal for its 12 seconds would miss by a hair).

     ParameterizedVault over MockIMD at $1 (Chainlink 2000e8 etched), NHI 0.85, divisor 2, Treasury holding 10,000 IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded.

     OTHER locks 3,000, draws 1,000 and gives HOLDER the 1,000; two quiet days.

     Control (passes): redemptionFeeBps(90e18) == 500 and cash(90e18) leaves redemptionBaseRate == 0.045e18.

     Attack 1: an actor contract lock(17,000e18) + draw(9,000e18) in one transaction; next block HOLDER cash(90e18, 0, 0); next block actor wipe(9,000e18); supply 910 after.

     EXPECTED: quoted >= 495 bps, base >= 0.0445e18.

     ACTUAL: quoted 95 bps, base 0.0045e18 ('cold principal must not dilute the fee: 95 < 495').

     Attack 2: the actor holds the 90 and calls wipe(9,000e18) then cash(90e18) in ONE call.

     EXPECTED base >= 0.0445e18 (cold repaid counts at once).

     ACTUAL 0.0045e18 ('cold principal repaid in the same call must count at once: 4500000000000000 < 44500000000000000').

   • lowCDPVault.cash: the start-of-transaction supply slot is decremented with an unchecked assembly sub, so a redemption larger than the supply the transaction began with wraps it; backingPerUnit reads 0, tsrc/CDPVault.sol:734

     Q3/Q4, the transient bookkeeping across several mints and burns in one transaction (all four specialists: audit_flow 40b7b462, audit_math 24d7b4ae, audit_permissions a1132c6c, audit_economics 5076eedf; merged).

     SUPPLY_START_SLOT holds start + 1, the supply at the transaction's first mint or burn. cash subtracts its whole burn with assembly sub, which has no underflow check. amount is bounded only by the LIVE supply (_redemptionRate line 902), and a draw or earn earlier in the transaction raises the live supply above start, so a redemption of more than start + 1 wraps the slot to about 2^256 - (amount - start); exactly start + 1 wraps it to 0, which _checkpointSupply reads as 'not recorded' and re-checkpoints _laggedSupply and the start supply from the mid-transaction live supply.

     Until the transaction ends _supplyStart() returns the wrapped figure: _backingPerUnit takes supply = max(live, start) ~ 2^256 and rounds perUnit to 0 (backingPerUnit() reads 0 in a fully backed vault), _redemptionRate reads prior ~ 2^256 and quotes the floor with no increase, and a second cash computes gemOut = 0 and reverts ZeroAmount.

     Transient storage is cleared when the call ends and _laggedSupply only ever falls, so nothing persists and no profit path was found (a cash at the wrapped figure pays nothing): the harm is a legitimate composed flow (a router or multicall that borrows or earns and then redeems more than the pre-existing supply, ordinary at launch with a small supply and a $1M line) refused with an error indistinguishable from an empty reserve, and wrong quotes mid-call.

     The comment at 729-730 ('counts at once, across transactions and inside this one') does not hold for such a burn. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix: saturate at the transaction's floor, keeping the +1 sentinel so the slot never reads as unrecorded, e.g. in a small private helper (an extra local in cash itself hits stack-too-deep): let s := tload(SUPPLY_START_SLOT) switch gt(s, amount) case 1 { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, sub(s, amount)) } default { tstore(SUPPLY_START_SLOT, 1) }, matching the saturating update of _laggedSupply on the line before.

     ParameterizedVault at $1, NHI 0.85; OTHER locks 200 and draws 100 (the supply the next transaction begins with is 100); the Treasury holds 5,000 IMD so redemptions are reserve-funded; a router contract holds 10,000 IMD.

     Control, as separate transactions: lock(2000e18) + draw(900e18); cash(500e18, 0, 0) pays a1 > 0; cash(100e18, 0, 0) pays b1 > 0 (passes, snapshot reverted).

     Then in ONE transaction: lock(2000e18), draw(900e18) [live 1,000, start 100], cash(500e18, 0, 0) [burns more than start: the slot becomes 101e18 - 500e18 mod 2^256], then backingPerUnit(), redemptionFeeBps(100e18), cash(100e18, 0, 0).

     EXPECTED: both redemptions paid as in the control, backingPerUnit() == 1e18 between them.

   • lowCDPVault._backingPerUnit: the accepted cross-transaction premium is stated as at most supply / (supply - repaid), but the lagged figure's denominator is supply - fresh, so with cold debt outstanding tsrc/CDPVault.sol:769

     Q4, the bound check the task asks for on the accepted medium (retry panel #4); the premium itself is not re-reported (from audit_flow c05c911a; audit_permissions d451c417 item 3 adds the parenthetical note below). _backingPerUnit returns min(live, lagged) with lagged = (reserve + warm secured) * 1e18 / (supply - fresh), where fresh = totalDebt - laggedNow().debt is the vault's cold principal.

     Below par the lagged figure binds, so a warm borrower's repayment R one transaction earlier (its term unchanged, 170-200% band) scales that figure by (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - R), not by supply / (supply - R) as the NatSpec (768-770), the retry panel's resolution table and test/retry-panel/AdjacentTxBurn.t.sol (which pins the bound with fresh == 0) state. The two coincide only when no debt is cold.

     The churner must itself be warm (a cold churner's repayment lowers fresh by the same R, and the denominator does not move), so R is bounded by 15% of the WARM principal it holds and the true bound is 1 / (1 - 0.15 x s_w) with s_w the churner's share of the warm supply: 17.6% for a churner that is the whole warm supply, where supply / (supply - repaid) suggests 15% of its share of the whole supply.

     Whenever a large part of the supply is fresh (launch, or after a large draw by anyone) the stated bound understates what a redeemer takes out of the Treasury's reserve and the other holders' backing.

     Also, the parenthetical '15% of it at a 170% minimum ratio, 25% at 150%' describes a churner AT mat: wipe has no health check, so a position below mat that is unmarked or inside its grace can repay up to half its principal without moving its term; it cannot redraw past the health check, so that variant costs capital, not gas, and the gas-only bound stands as the general clause.

     Not a bypass of the acceptance: the cost (gas, below par only, bounded by the churner's warm principal) stands; the bound stated for it does not.

     Smallest fix: state the bound as (supply - fresh) / (supply - fresh - repaid), fresh being the cold principal laggedNow excludes, in the NatSpec, in docs/AUDIT-RETRY-PANEL-VAULT-2026-10-07.md's resolution and in the retry-panel test's assertion (which should pin the bound with fresh debt present); or make the lagged denominator read the supply the churn left in it by adding the position's unexpired bankDebt back to supply - fresh for the lagged figure.

   • low_resecureBounded / _lag: a price fall re-prices a debt-bound secured term upward and the whole rise is cold, so collateral held for days is excluded from the lagged backing for a day after a fall and src/CDPVault.sol:950

     Q4 ('or underpays honest redeemers') and Q1(c) (from audit_math 2e2c4d95). _lag is driven by the secured TERM, min(collateral, 2 x principal / price), not by the collateral itself.

     For a position above 200% the term is debt-bound; when the price falls and the position is next touched (its own lock, wipe or free, or ANY third party's cash against it once it is an eligible candidate, even for one wei), the term rises toward its collateral and _lag treats the whole rise as cold capital although nothing arrived: the collateral had been in the vault for days. _backingPerUnit then pays redeemers the lagged figure, which excludes that collateral, for a day after the fall (half of it for six hours), which is exactly when redemptions matter.

     It is the safe direction and not a theft, but it is not 'new capital' either, and a third party can impose it on every eligible candidate with a one-wei cash against each. Reachable with the constants as committed. NatSpec the code does not have: lines 312 and 956 ('what a position adds is cold' / 'An increase is cold, less what the position's bank gives back') describe additions; a re-pricing adds nothing.

     Smallest fix: cold only the part of a term increase that corresponds to capital added in the same call: pass the collateral and principal this call added into _resecure (from lock, lockIMD and draw) and cap the cold increment at added collateral + 2 x added principal / price; a pure re-pricing is then warm.

     (The mirror, a price rise shrinking a debt-bound term and banking the decrease as warm, only ever credits the same position's own term back within a day and was checked as within the design.)

   • lowCDPVault._lag / _cool: a position untouched for a day reads its own cold as zero while the vault total, kept alive by others' touches, still holds 1/16 of it, so the position's repayment leaves that csrc/CDPVault.sol:1021

     Q1(a)/(c) (from audit_economics 4693a119). _cool returns 0 for any elapsed >= BACKING_WARMUP. For the vault total that is the designed quiet-day rule, and a touch of any position restarts it.

     For a position the same rule runs on the position's OWN elapsed (block.timestamp - position.coldAt, line 971), so a position left untouched for a day reads its cold as zero even when the vault total, touched by others every few hours, still carries that position's residual (1/16 after exactly a day, rounded up at every touch).

     The total is then above the sum of the positions, which the NatSpec calls the safe direction, but the decrease path takes coldOut = min(cold, out) with cold == 0 (lines 987-989): nothing leaves the total, the whole repayment is banked as warm, and the residual stays in _coldDebt / _coldSecured as cold for debt and collateral that no longer exist, halving every six hours and zeroed only by a quiet vault day.

     Effect: laggedNow reads the OTHER positions' warm capital short by that residual (62.5 of the helper's 100 in the reproduction), so ParameterizedVault.backedDebt / earnLine and the lagged _backingPerUnit figure are below honest for hours.

     Direction: conservative for the protocol (I checked that an orphan on both sides lowers the lagged backing below par whenever honest backing is under the position's term-to-debt ratio, i.e. always below par; on the debt side alone it would raise fresh and shrink the denominator, but a term always moves with the principal it bounds, so a debt-only orphan needs an unreadable price and was not reached).

     So this is a griefing and accuracy defect rather than an extraction: a borrower who holds D for a day while the vault stays active, repays, and redraws (credited warm from its bank, so its own position is unaffected) leaves D/16 of phantom cold behind each time; with D equal to the honest debt that is about 6% off the lagged backing and the work ceiling for about a day, for one day of stability fee on D and gas.

     The claim at 1016-1018 ('A touch only ever restarts that day, so activity can slow warming but never speed it') holds; the per-position premise in Q1(a) that 'a position's own quiet day is its own' holds for the position's figures and not for the total its decrease is applied to.

     Smallest fix: cool a position's figures continuously (apply the half-life for any elapsed, without the >= BACKING_WARMUP short-circuit; _pow stays at about 27 squarings for any realistic gap), so a position's cold is never below its share of the total and a decrease always removes what the position actually contributed; keep the quiet-day zeroing for the total only.

   • lowCDPVault.bite: the no-mark, no-grace path keys on the re-lock's value against the bad-debt record, so a rebuilding borrower whose tranche or price move leaves the collateral below the record is bittensrc/CDPVault.sol:1129

     Q5 ('a price move between their deposits') (from audit_permissions 1ba6e564). The retry panel's low #7 narrowed the skip to a re-lock worth less than the recorded bad debt, and its low #6 made cover take such a re-lock at its value with no liquidator needed.

     After those two fixes the bite shortcut is no longer needed to clear a griefing re-lock while the Treasury holds imdUSD (cover does it at par, 0% penalty, strictly better for protocol and borrower), but it still removes the mark and the grace from every drained borrower whose collateral is worth less than the record at the moment of the bite, whatever their intent: a borrower rebuilding in tranches is exposed between tranches, and one who re-locked collateral worth 110% of the record (above it, so marked and given grace like anyone) and is moved below it by a 10% price fall is liquidated by anyone in the same block, for any debtToRepay the collateral covers, at the 20% penalty, with both bonus shares to the liquidator (line 1156).

     An identical position with no record gets bark and up to six hours (NHI >= 0.85) to top up; the comment's premise at 1123-1124 ('cannot recover by waiting') is not a property of the position, because the same price moving back up returns it to the marked path.

     Harm bounded by the re-lock (20% of what is bitten); the bad-debt record and totalBadDebt stay consistent through the bite and through cover's value sweep (_reduceDebt lowers the record with the debt; _recordBadDebt re-records at zero collateral), which I checked. Reachable with the constants as committed.

     Smallest fix: require the ordinary mark and grace in bite for every position above dust, leaving cover's at-value sweep as the permissionless remedy for a re-lock below the record (and keep the shortcut, if at all, only for the case cover cannot serve: a Treasury with no imdUSD); or, if the shortcut is kept, say in docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md and the borrower docs that a drained borrower must re-lock at least the recorded bad debt's worth in one transaction and keep it above the record.

     Q1(a) and (d) (merged from audit_flow 08475e01, audit_math f30223db, audit_economics c023b9c7). The vault's cold totals are cooled at every touch of any position (_lag line 969) with _cool(..., up = true), while a position's own cold is cooled once, at its next touch, over the whole gap, with up = false.

     The ceiling only guarantees total >= sum when the decay factor composes exactly, and _pow does not: each result * factor / one and factor * factor / one truncates, so _pow(f, a) * _pow(f, b) / RAY can read below _pow(f, a + b) by a few units in 1e27, and the one-unit ceiling per touch cannot cover that on an amount above about 1e27 raw units (a thousand sIMD at 24 decimals).

     Consequence: when such a position subtracts its cold the vault total saturates to zero (line 989) while another position still holds cold of that dust size, which laggedNow then reads as warm; bounded by about 1e-21 of the cold amount relatively (under 1e-18 sIMD on a million-sIMD term), no economic effect.

     Also checked and holding for Q1(d): the unchecked block in _lag (every subtraction guarded by the comparison or min before it; bank + (out - coldOut) cannot wrap for any representable position); the uint128 saturation keeps the excess in the vault total, the safe direction (see the NatSpec finding for the comment that says the opposite); _pow's bound (factor and result at most one, products below 1e54 for RAY and 1e36 for 1e18); its gas over long gaps (at most 17 squarings for the cold and the lagged supply, elapsed being short-circuited at BACKING_WARMUP, about 27 for the base rate over a year of quiet).

     Smallest fix: reword the claim ('so the position's share is never read above the total, to within the truncation of _pow'), or compute the vault totals' decay with a rounding-up _pow (round each product up) so the totals dominate by construction.

     Claim 6: read _lag 996-1012: total += after_ - before - credit at 999 is uncapped while cold is capped at 1004.
