Merged from audit_math and audit_economics (info). _redemptionRate adds each burn's increase to the decayed stored rate, and each burn pays the floor plus the rate including only its own increase, so slices pay 50, 55, ... 500 bps and store the same 0.045e18. The 9,000 threshold is right; the price is about 1.8x overstated (and the same row in docs/AUDIT-FINAL-SWEEP-PANEL-2026-10-08.md Resolution #1).
With a 12-hour-seasoned own position in the 170-220% band as the candidate (accepted b952037a) the fee stays in the pinner's collateral. Q2 otherwise: the floor is a max, inert once the warm base passes 100,000, so it dilutes nobody's fee; while the warm supply W is under 100,000 a run raises the rate by W/200,000 at most, a weaker brake, but the payout is capped at backing so remaining holders lose nothing.
Fix: reword to 'about 250 imdUSD of fee in small burns, 450 in one'.

The review is complete. The findings file holds three entries (one low, two info), every snippet matches the tree, the baseline suite is green (601 passed, 0 failed, 4 skipped), and the two scratch tests that back the numbers pass. No tracked file was changed.
Findings
- Low, runbook §7 step 2 (docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md:351). The salt-secrecy fix rests on broadcasting stage two through
https://rpc.mevblocker.io. Per MEV Blocker's own docs that bare endpoint is/fast, whose order-flow auction shares every transaction with connected searchers before inclusion. The stage-two calldata issalt ++ initcodeto the canonical proxy, which binds the address to nothing but those bytes, so anyone holding them can replay it from any account and land the vault first. Only/fullprivacywithholds the transaction from searchers. Impact is griefing only: after verifySeeded the feeds are honest and the stranger's vault is byte-identical and correctly wired. But one lock-and-draw by the stranger makes the operator's run print "exists, skipped" and then revert in verify at the nonzero-supply check, so deployment.json never receives the vault addresses and no entry point can rerun verify or record. Also, nothing says how VAULT_SALT is generated; a keccak of a phrase is guessable offline. Fix: name the/fullprivacyendpoint, mandate 32 random bytes, and let runVault complete against an existing vault by checking its code hash and relaxing the two opening-state requires. Plain CREATE from the deployer would remove the whole class. - Info, CDPVault._feeBase NatSpec (line 1066). "9,000 at 2, the cap paid on all of it" prices the launch pin at 450 imdUSD. The base rate accumulates across calls, so the same 9,000 in 100 slices inside one transaction stores the cap for 249 imdUSD of fee. Against a 12-hour-seasoned own position in the band it costs only gas, the accepted b952037a cost. Both measured in test/scratch/Economics.t.sol.
- Info, CDPVault._backingPerUnit NatSpec (line 765). The comment counts "two accepted cases" of underpayment one sentence after introducing a third, the reserve dilution by a fresh loan. Measured: book 200,000 at 80% after a fall with an 8,000 reserve reads 0.84; an 800,000 cold loan drops it to 0.8098 for about a day, at a cost to the newcomer of about 97 imdUSD of stability fee. Work-minted warm supply over an all-cold book is a fourth, with zero collateral credit, which the invariant test's comment admits; unreachable at launch at wage 0.
Answers to the numbered questions
- Reserve share. No sequence found that raises a payout above the honest book. The lagged figure is reserve/supply plus warmSecured/warm, and for a single-cohort book warmSecured/warm equals the old book's collateral backing at any age, so the fix works from the first block, not only after hours. Lock, draw, wipe, cover, bite, work minting and a Treasury donation each leave the lagged figure at or below honest; a donation is honest backing and is never profitable to the donor. REPAID_THIS_TX_SLOT inflates both supply and warm, shrinking the reserve's share and the collateral share together, the safe direction. Underpayment by a fresh loan is reserve per unit times the fresh share of supply, roughly zero at launch since the Treasury holds no sIMD, and a few points later for about $100 a day plus collateral lock-up. All three payout routes read one
payoutScale. - Fee floor. Cheapest cap store today is 9,000 imdUSD burned in slices for about 250 of fee, or free with a seasoned self-candidate. Above the floor it is a max, so it dilutes nothing. Below it the brake reaches the cap after 9,000 instead of 9% of warm supply, so a run on a 20,000 book can take 45% before the cap; since payouts are pro rata and backing-neutral this costs fee revenue, not solvency.
- Deploy salt. Nothing committed or recorded reveals the salt; stage one's record omits the vault, check() prints only the address, plan.py still converges on th

src/CDPVault.sol:790,_backingPerUnit. A borrower whose term is its whole collateral (the 170 to 200% band) adds cold debt and no cold secured term when it draws, because_securedreturns the same collateral before and after. The lagged figure drops that debt from the warm supply but keeps the collateral now standing behind it, so it reads above the honest backing by up to fresh/warm (17.6% for a draw from 200% to 170%). The live figure catches it until a newcomer's one-transaction lock and draw at 200% lifts the live figure, which is the D1 sequence the lag exists to close. Proof: book of 200,000 IMD against 100,000 imdUSD warms two days, draws 17,000 more, IMD halves. Honest backing reads 0.897. After the newcomer it reads 1.000 and a 5,000 imdUSD reserve redemption pays 9,700 raw IMD where the honest ceiling is 8,705. The fix is write side indraw: when the term is collateral-bound before and after, cool a pro-rata slice of it along with the new debt through one_lagcall.

Both claim the stage-two transaction is not public before the vault exists, but the named endpoint is MEV Blocker's default, whose own documentation says it shares transactions with searchers via backrun bundles; the "Full privacy" endpoint is separate.

src/CDPVault.sol:1066. The_feeBaseNatSpec says storing the cap from the 100,000 floor pays "the cap on all of it". Split into ninety 100 imdUSD burns, the same 9,000 stores the cap for 249.75 of fee rather than 450, because the increase accumulates and each burn pays the rate stored before it.Answers where nothing is wrong
- Q1, reserve share. The reserve enters both figures as reserve/supply, so the slot inflating supply shrinks it in both, and min(live, lagged) is the one figure every route (cash, reserve, mixed) reads. A donation to the Treasury is permanent, non-withdrawable backing, so it raises payouts honestly. Cover and bite burn into the slot and lower lagged or leave it. A large new loan D dilutes a warm redeemer's reserve part by D/(S+D) for the hours it stays cold, bounded by the reserve's share of supply, which is near zero at launch and a few percent later; it costs 1.7x D in sIMD held across transactions and nobody gains, so it is not a cheap grief. Work-minted supply is unreachable at wage 0 and dilutes both figures honestly when on. The three accepted items hold as stated; the band-draw finding is the same arithmetic as the accepted
_coolorphan but sixteen times larger and needing no staleness. - Q2, floor. Once the warm base passes 100,000 the floor is a max and dilutes nothing. Below it honest redeemers pay less than the un-floored formula would charge, which weakens the brake while the protocol is small but leaves the backing cap on payouts untouched. The single

Review complete. The findings file holds three entries, all info-level, and the working tree has no stray files (only the ignored findings file, the pinned reads, and my disposable scratch test).
Verdict on the diff since 6085c8a: nothing critical, high, medium or low. The three fixes do what the resolution says, the suite is green on 07905bb (601 passed, 0 failed, 4 skipped), and ParameterizedVault's initcode is 46,679 bytes with runtime 22,466. What I recorded is one quantified cost of the reserve-share fix and two places where comments or the runbook claim more than the code or configuration gives.
Answers to the numbered questions
-
Reserve share. No sequence I could construct lifts a redemption above the book it found across transactions. Lock, draw, wipe, cover, a Treasury donation and work-minted supply each leave min(live, lagged) at or below the honest figure, and the repaid-this-transaction slot inflates supply in both the share and the divisor, so the reserve term is exactly reserve over supply as in the live figure. One payout scale feeds the cash, reserve and mixed routes. Two quantified effects. First, a newcomer still reads par for roughly the first two minutes after the first draw (honest 0.95 reads 1.0 at 12 and 60 seconds, 0.996 at 120 seconds, honest by 300 seconds), which matches the resolution's "first minutes". Second, the fix introduces a new underpayment: a fresh loan dilutes the reserve term by its share of supply without adding collateral. On a 100,000 warm book with a 20,000 IMD reserve, a 900,000 loan drops the figure from 0.95 to 0.863 for about two hours. On a reserve-heavy book a holder redeeming 10,000 imdUSD was paid 16,781 raw IMD instead of 19,900. Cheap in fees but it needs collateral comparable to the whole supply and only bites below par on collateral alone, so I rated it info.
-
Fee-base floor. The threshold is exactly 9,000 imdUSD at divisor 2 (8,999 stores just under the cap), costing 450 imdUSD of fee through the reserve route, or only duty and gas through a seasoned self-candidate, which is the already-accepted b952037a cost. Past 100,000 the floor is a max and inert. Under it a run on a 20,000 warm supply pays 300 bps on the first 5,000 and the cap thereafter. Weaker brake, but harmless to remaining holders because the payout is capped at backing.
-
Deploy salt. Nothing committed or recorded reveals the address before stage two lands. The one gap is operational: the runbook names MEV Blocker's default endpoint, which shares pending transactions with its searcher network, so "a salt no one else knows" overstates it. The fix is the
/fullprivacyendpoint. Rerun, relay-delay and "exists, skipped" paths all converge correctly, with two notes: a rerun repeats verifySeeded and so needs fresh one-hour feed values, and the runbook should say the rerun must use the same salt. -
Regressions. None found. The invariant model mirrors the new formula, cover and bite are untouched, fundOracle's code is unchanged and its NatSpec now matches.
-
Comments. Three items: the "two accepted cases" sentence now follows a third, the
tail()note says all lifetimes agree when Chainlink's is two hours, and the runbook still says stage one reads back "the whole stack" for the keeper.

- Reserve's share. The new lagged figure is algebraically reserve/supply + warm collateral/warm supply, so the reserve term is the live one and the collateral term excludes cold capital on both sides. A fuzz over random warm books, price falls, reserves and newcomer loans (1,500 runs) found no sequence that lifts the figure beyond the newcomer's one-block warming. Same-transaction wipe then cash is neutral in the below-par regime (0.8400 to 0.8399) because the repaid slot keeps supply and warm supply at their pre-wipe values. Donations never profit the donor, since the gain is at most the donation. Underpayment by a large new loan is reserve × new/(supply × (supply + new)) per unit: a 900,000 loan against a 100,000 book backed at 0.88 pays 0.812 for a few hours, a documented acceptance that costs the griefer stability fees and price exposure. Work-minted supply dilutes the same way but the channel is closed at launch. The overpayment side is the low finding: the lag discounts rather than excludes, and a loan k times the warm book lifts a 0.84 book to par in 91, 29 or 10 minutes for k of 1, 3 or 9. Gain bounded by the Treasury's sIMD times the gap below par.
- Fee-base floor. Cheapest cap pin is now a 9,000 imdUSD burn costing 450 imdUSD of fee; 8,999 stores 4.4995%. The pin still decays over a day (210 bps quote at +18h), only its price rose 100×. Past 100,000 of warm base the floor is a no-op max and dilutes nothing. Below it the brake is weaker by floor/warm: 10% of a 50,000 book quotes 308 bps instead of the cap. That lowers the fee honest redeemers pay, and the payout is still capped at backing, so the peg floor is unaffected.
- Deploy salt. Nothing on chain or in
deployment.jsonreveals the address or salt before stage two.check()prints the vault address only when VAULT_SALT is exported, and plan.py's regex ignores that line. A leaked or front-run transaction reverts in the deployer, and a rerun prints exists, skipped then fails verify on totalDebt. The gap is operational: the runbook names MEV Blocker's default endpoint, which shares calldata with searchers; only the fullprivacy endpoint matches the claim (low). A rerun with a different salt deploys a second stack and overwrites the record (info). - Regressions. The invariant model mirrors the new reserve term. Cover and bite are unchanged in code and green. The rewritten fundOracle NatSpec matches the try/catch path.
- Comment claims. Line 757 (attacker's capital cannot raise the lagged figure) and lines 764 to 765 (dilution "as in the live figure", "two accepted cases") are the ones that overstate; the rest of the changed comments verify.

Audit judgeAgent #92found 1 medium, 2 low, 4 info
I found one medium, two lows and four informational items. All seven are in
.imd-findings.json, and each was reproduced against 07905bb. The full suite passes (601 passed, 0 failed, 4 skipped, excluding my scratch tests).ParameterizedVaultinitcode is 46,679 bytes, 2,473 under the limit. I've deleted my scratch tests, but the medium finding's proof is embedded in the JSON.Medium: a band position's draw lets a redemption be paid more than the book's real backing (
src/CDPVault.soldraw, line 492; affects_backingPerUnit)- Cause: a position at 170–200% that draws gets its new debt marked "cold" (excluded from the lagged figure until it ages). Its collateral term doesn't change, so none of the collateral is marked cold. The lagged figure therefore drops the new imdUSD but keeps all the collateral behind it, and reads high.
- Exploit: a newcomer locks and draws at 200% in one transaction, which raises the live figure. A redemption in the next transaction is then paid the inflated lagged figure, and the newcomer unwinds. This is the round trip the lag (the D1 fix) was meant to close.
- Not already accepted: the
_coolitem covers the same arithmetic only after the position has sat untouched for a day. Here the whole fresh draw counts. - Reproduction: the attached proof, re-run unchanged, fails as claimed. Honest backing is 0.897; after the newcomer it reads 1.0. Redeeming 5,000 imdUSD pays 9,700 IMD from the reserve where at most 8,705 is honest, about $497 over.
- Fix: in
draw, when the collateral term is unchanged, mark a matching share of it cold along with the new debt. I applied this in a scratch copy and the proof passes (0.878 against an honest 0.897).
Low
- The vault's salt is not private (
docs/MAINNET-RUNBOOK.md:351). The runbook names MEV Blocker's default endpoint. MEV Blocker's docs say it "shares the transaction (without signature) with a permissioned or permissionless set of searchers", and the calldata contains the salt.- Consequence: whoever front-runs gets an identical, correctly wired vault, so no funds are at risk. But if they also draw 1 wei, the operator's
verifyreverts anddeployment.json, which the keeper runs from, never records the vault. - Fix: use
/fullprivacyor Flashbots Protect, generate the salt withopenssl rand -hex 32, and add a path that records a vault that already exists. Four specialists reported this; it's merged into one finding.

- New capital lifts the payout to par within minutes (
src/CDPVault.sol:321). A loan nine times the warm book takes a book backed at 0.84 to par in 10 minutes in my test. That contradicts the comments saying capital brought in and withdrawn a few transactions later can't do this. The gain is limited by how much sIMD the Treasury holds, and it needs about $3.8M of collateral.
Info
- Dilution not documented: a 900,000 loan cuts an honest redeemer's figure from 0.88 to 0.812 for about two hours. The comment says this happens "as it does in the live figure" (the live figure actually rises), and its "two accepted cases" leaves this one out.
- Fee-pin cost overstated: the
_feeBasecomment says pinning the fee at the cap costs 450 imdUSD of fee. Split into 90 small burns it costs 249.75. - Second vault on rerun: running
runVaultagain with a differentVAULT_SALTdeploys a second vault and overwritesdeployment.json. - Stale comments:
tail()says the feed lifetimes "all agree" (they don't). The runbook still lists the vault's salt asinfer-protocol/mainnet/v1/<Contract>. It also saysrun()reads the whole stack back, which stopped being true after the two-stage split.
Questions where nothing is wrong:
- The repaid-this-transaction supply and the reserve share interact correctly.
cashcomputes the payout figure once and every route reads it.- The fee-base floor only applies while the warm base is under 100,000, so it can't dilute anyone's fee once pas

CDPVault._feeBase NatSpec: storing the cap from the 100,000 floor does not cost 'the cap paid on all of it'; split into ninety 100 imdUSD burns the same 9,000 pays 249.75 of fee, not 450src/CDPVault.sol:1066
Merged from audit_math and audit_economics (info). _redemptionRate adds each burn's increase to the decayed stored rate, and each burn pays the floor plus the rate including only its own increase, so slices pay 50, 55, ... 500 bps and store the same 0.045e18. The 9,000 threshold is right; the price is about 1.8x overstated (and the same row in docs/AUDIT-FINAL-SWEEP-PANEL-2026-10-08.md Resolution #1).
With a 12-hour-seasoned own position in the 170-220% band as the candidate (accepted b952037a) the fee stays in the pinner's collateral. Q2 otherwise: the floor is a max, inert once the warm base passes 100,000, so it dilutes nobody's fee; while the warm supply W is under 100,000 a run raises the rate by W/200,000 at most, a weaker brake, but the payout is capped at backing so remaining holders lose nothing.
Fix: reword to 'about 250 imdUSD of fee in small burns, 450 in one'.

DeployMainnet.runVault: a rerun with a different VAULT_SALT deploys a second vault stack and overwrites deployment.json; the header's 'resumable ... never redeployed' no longer holds for the vault, anscript/DeployMainnet.s.sol:160
From audit_permissions (info) and audit_flow. plan() derives p.vault from the environment; _deploy skips only when that address has code; nothing reads the stage-two record back.
Same salt: 'exists, skipped', verify, record (fine). Any other nonzero salt (lost, retyped, regenerated as rehearse-fork.sh does per run) passes verifySeeded, deploys a second correct ParameterizedVault with its own imdUSD, Parameters, Treasury, oracle and feeds (~12.7M gas), and _record overwrites deployment.json, so the keeper follows the second vault while the first stays live. Operator-only, no funds lost.
Fix: in runVault refuse when deployment.json already records a vault with code at a different address, or record keccak256(salt) in stage one and check it; add 'rerun with the same VAULT_SALT' to runbook 7.2.
On a fork after a successful stage two: VAULT_SALT=0xaa..aa forge script ... --sig runVault() --broadcast (vault A, deployment.json vault = A); then VAULT_SALT=0xbb..bb ... --sig runVault() --broadcast.
EXPECTED per header lines 89-91: 'exists, skipped'.
ACTUAL by the code path (lines 160-161, 224, 262-271, 458): p.vault is a new address with no code, the deployer is called, vault B is created, verify(p) passes, deployment.json now names B.
