Beanstalk: The Finale

Summary

Sops might be wrongly distributed as quickSort does not work properly.

Vulnerability Details

In order to distribute sops as expected, quickSort is used to sort them in an ascending order (from highest to lowest). However, the algorithm used does not work properly and does not always sort them.

Due to time constraints, I was unable to find the exact root cause, but an example input which would prove this claim is the following [4, 2, 5, 3, 7, 6]. This would return [7, 6, 5, 3, 2, 4]

Impact

Can both lead to overdistribution and underdistribution of yield, depending on the Well reserves

Recommendations

Use a different sorting algorithm.
