Vulnerability details

Impact

the chainlinkOracle.sol contract specially the getChainlinkPrice function using the aggregator v2 and v3 to get/call the latestRoundData. the function should check for the min and max amount return to prevent some case happen, something like this:

https://solodit.xyz/issues/missing-checks-for-chainlink-oracle-spearbit-connext-pdf https://solodit.xyz/issues/m-16-chainlinkadapteroracle-will-return-the-wrong-price-for-asset-if-underlying-aggregator-hits-minanswer-sherlock-blueberry-blueberry-git

if case like luna happen then the oracle will return the minimum price and not the crashed price.

Proof of Concept

the function getChainlinkPrice:

soliditiy
function getChainlinkPrice( AggregatorV3Interface feed ) internal view returns (uint256) { (, int256 answer, , uint256 updatedAt, ) = AggregatorV3Interface(feed) .latestRoundData(); require(answer > 0, "Chainlink price cannot be lower than 0"); require(updatedAt != 0, "Round is in incompleted state"); // Chainlink USD-denominated feeds store answers at 8 decimals uint256 decimalDelta = uint256(18).sub(feed.decimals()); // Ensure that we don't multiply the result by 0 if (decimalDelta > 0) { return uint256(answer).mul(10 ** decimalDelta); } else { return uint256(answer); } }

the function did not check for the min and max price.

Recommended Mitigation Steps

some check like this can be added to avoid returning of the min price or the max price in case of the price crashes.

solidity
require(answer < _maxPrice, "Upper price bound breached"); require(answer > _minPrice, "Lower price bound breached");
