Submission Details
Severity:
Validators can choose the winner
Description
In RapBattle::goOnStageOrBattle, the winner is decided using the random variable which uses block.timestamp, block.prevrandao, and msg.sender to be random. The problem is that validators can slightly move these variables during block validation. A malicious validator is able to manipulate the randomness and choose a winner.
uint256 random = uint256(
keccak256(
@> abi.encodePacked(block.timestamp, block.prevrandao, msg.sender)
)
) % totalBattleSkill;
Risk
Likelyhood: Low
Only validators can manipulate the randomness.
Impact: High
Validors are able to manipulate the randomness and choose a winner.
Recommended Mitigation
Use an oracle like Chainlink to obtain real randomness.
