Severity:
Pseudo-Randomness Manipulation in EggHuntGame
Summary
The searchForEgg function in EggHuntGame contract uses predictable on-chain data for randomness, making it vulnerable to miner manipulation.
Vulnerability Details
The problematic randomness generation:
uint256 random = uint256(
keccak256(abi.encodePacked(block.timestamp, block.prevrandao, msg.sender, eggCounter))
) % 100;
Miners can influence both block.timestamp and block.prevrandao, and users can front-run transactions when they see favorable outcomes.
Impact
High - Game fairness is compromised as both miners and players can manipulate outcomes.
