Missing claim status tracking allows users to claim the airdrop multiple times and drain the contract.

The claim function verifies the provided Merkle proof and transfers the specified token amount to the user. However, it fails to record whether the user has already claimed their airdrop (e.g., using a mapping(address => bool) hasClaimed). Because there is no state update to invalidate the proof after a successful claim, any user with a valid proof can repeatedly call the function, paying the fee each time, and drain the contract's entire token balance.

[H-02] Eligible users can claim their airdrop amounts over and over again, draining the contract

## Description A user eligible for the airdrop can verify themselves as being part of the merkle tree and claim their airdrop amount. However, there is no mechanism enabled to track the users who have already claimed their airdrop, and the merkle tree is still composed of the same user. This allows users to drain the `MerkleAirdrop` contract by calling the `MerkleAirdrop::claim()` function over and over again. ## Impact **Severity: High**<br/>**Likelihood: High** A malicious user can call the `MerkleAirdrop::claim()` function over and over again until the contract is drained of all its funds. This also means that other users won't be able to claim their airdrop amounts. ## Proof of Code Add the following test to `./test/MerkleAirdrop.t.sol`, ```javascript function testClaimAirdropOverAndOverAgain() public { vm.deal(collectorOne, airdrop.getFee() * 4); for (uint8 i = 0; i < 4; i++) { vm.prank(collectorOne); airdrop.claim{ value: airdrop.getFee() }(collectorOne, amountToCollect, proof); } assertEq(token.balanceOf(collectorOne), 100e6); } ``` The test passes, and the malicious user has drained the contract of all its funds. ## Recommended Mitigation Use a mapping to store the addresses that have claimed their airdrop amounts. Check and update this mapping each time a user tries to claim their airdrop amount. ```diff contract MerkleAirdrop is Ownable { using SafeERC20 for IERC20; error MerkleAirdrop__InvalidFeeAmount(); error MerkleAirdrop__InvalidProof(); error MerkleAirdrop__TransferFailed(); + error MerkleAirdrop__AlreadyClaimed(); uint256 private constant FEE = 1e9; IERC20 private immutable i_airdropToken; bytes32 private immutable i_merkleRoot; + mapping(address user => bool claimed) private s_hasClaimed; ... function claim(address account, uint256 amount, bytes32[] calldata merkleProof) external payable { + if (s_hasClaimed[account]) revert MerkleAirdrop__AlreadyClaimed(); if (msg.value != FEE) { revert MerkleAirdrop__InvalidFeeAmount(); } bytes32 leaf = keccak256(bytes.concat(keccak256(abi.encode(account, amount)))); if (!MerkleProof.verify(merkleProof, i_merkleRoot, leaf)) { revert MerkleAirdrop__InvalidProof(); } + s_hasClaimed[account] = true; emit Claimed(account, amount); i_airdropToken.safeTransfer(account, amount); } ``` Now, let's unit test the changes, ```javascript function testCannotClaimAirdropMoreThanOnceAnymore() public { vm.deal(collectorOne, airdrop.getFee() * 2); vm.prank(collectorOne); airdrop.claim{ value: airdrop.getFee() }(collectorOne, amountToCollect, proof); vm.prank(collectorOne); airdrop.claim{ value: airdrop.getFee() }(collectorOne, amountToCollect, proof); } ``` The test correctly fails, with the following logs, ```shell Failing tests: Encountered 1 failing test in test/MerkleAirdropTest.t.sol:MerkleAirdropTest [FAIL. Reason: MerkleAirdrop__AlreadyClaimed()] testCannotClaimAirdropMoreThanOnceAnymore() (gas: 96751) ```
