Summary

possible frontrun on the initialize function

Vulnerability Details

The initialize function that initializes important contract state can be called by anyone.

Impact

The attacker can initialize the contract before the legitimate deployer, hoping that the victim continues to use the same contract.
In the best case for the victim, they notice it and have to redeploy their contract costing gas.

Tools Used

manual audit

Recommendations

use a factory contract that immediately calls initialize after deployment or make sure to call it immediately after deployment and verify the transaction succeeded.
