No bad debt handling

Summary

No bad debt handling in the protocol.

Vulnerability Details

In case if collateral has dropped in price, then it's possible that minted amount of vault costs more than total collaterall inside it. This is called a bad debt. In this case protocol will just sell all collateral to get EURO tokens adn what is expected that burnEuros will be smaller than minted of the vault. As result, smaller amount will be burnt.

As result we have more token in cicrulation that are not backed by any collateral.

Impact

Increase of not backed EURO tokens, drop of EURO price.

Recommendations

As TST stakers receives fees from vault owners, maybe you can create mechanism that makes them take a loss in case of bad debt.
