Missing Event Emission on Organizer Update

jufel

Description:
The setOrganizer function updates the organizer state variable but does not emit any event to signal this change.

function setOrganizer(address _organizer) public onlyOwner {
organizer = _organizer;
}

Impact:
Off-chain Visibility Gap: Off-chain indexers and UIs cannot detect that the organizer address has changed without performing costly on-chain calls or periodic state snapshots.

Mitigation:
Define and emit an event, for example:

event OrganizerUpdated(address indexed previousOrganizer, address indexed newOrganizer);
​
function setOrganizer(address _organizer) public onlyOwner {
address old = organizer;
organizer = _organizer;
emit OrganizerUpdated(old, _organizer);
}

This ensures all state transitions are recorded in the logs for reliable off-chain indexing and monitoring.

Informational. This protocol doesn't rely on events to function, they are just nice to have, but not mandatory.
