In GmxProxy.sol the .transfer is used to transfer ETH in GmxProxy::refundExecutionFee and GmxPeoxy::withdrawEth functions , .transfer transfers a fixed amount of 2300 gas which may lead to reverts if :
The receiver is not an EOA but a contract with a receive/fallback which requires more than 2300 gas
The change in Gas Costs of EVM during Hard Forks , Example : EIP-1884:Repricing for trie-size dependent opcodes
Issue 1 only affects GmxProxy::refundExecutionFee but issue 2 affects even GmxPeoxy::withdrawEth leaving the protocol with upgrading the contract as only option and funds being permanently stuck in the previous implementation.
Usage of .transfer may lead to reverts and in the worst case the funds will be permanently stuck in the contract
In the GmxProxy::refundExecutionFee function
In the GmxProxy::withdrawEth function
Manual Review
Use .call instead of .transfer and in GmxProxy::refundExecutionFee use .call with a configurable gas variable instead to prevent gas griefing attacks from Malicious users
Please read the CodeHawks documentation to know which submissions are valid. If you disagree, provide a coded PoC and explain the real likelihood and the detailed impact on the mainnet without any supposition (if, it could, etc) to prove your point. Keepers are added by the admin, there is no "malicious keeper" and if there is a problem in those keepers, that's out of scope. ReadMe and known issues states: " * System relies heavily on keeper for executing trades * Single keeper point of failure if not properly distributed * Malicious keeper could potentially front-run or delay transactions * Assume that Keeper will always have enough gas to execute transactions. There is a pay execution fee function, but the assumption should be that there's more than enough gas to cover transaction failures, retries, etc * There are two spot swap functionalies: (1) using GMX swap and (2) using Paraswap. We can assume that any swap failure will be retried until success. " " * Heavy dependency on GMX protocol functioning correctly * Owner can update GMX-related addresses * Changes in GMX protocol could impact system operations * We can assume that the GMX keeper won't misbehave, delay, or go offline. " "Issues related to GMX Keepers being DOS'd or losing functionality would be considered invalid."
There is no real proof, concrete root cause, specific impact, or enough details in those submissions. Examples include: "It could happen" without specifying when, "If this impossible case happens," "Unexpected behavior," etc. Make a Proof of Concept (PoC) using external functions and realistic parameters. Do not test only the internal function where you think you found something.
