claimantCut is divided by players when should be divided by claimants

Root + Impact

Description

  • When closing the pot, the rewards not claimed are distributed between the players. There is an incosistence about how the calculation is done

  • As we can see in below coding, the cut is calculated based on the players length, but then the transfer is done only to the claimants. As players always is bigger than claimants, there will be a remaining award locked in the contract.

function closePot() external onlyOwner {
if (block.timestamp - i_deployedAt < 90 days) {
revert Pot__StillOpenForClaim();
}
if (remainingRewards > 0) {
uint256 managerCut = remainingRewards / managerCutPercent;
i_token.transfer(msg.sender, managerCut);
@> uint256 claimantCut = (remainingRewards - managerCut) / i_players.length;
for (uint256 i = 0; i < claimants.length; i++) {
@> _transferReward(claimants[i], claimantCut);
}
}
}

Risk

Likelihood:

  • This will happen when the pot is closed.

  • This will happen each time players are more than claimants.

Impact:

  • The impact is high as claimants will receive less money.

Proof of Concept

As we can see below, the claimant will receive a remaining award of 9 when should be 18. This is because the remaingAwards is distributed between 4 players and not 2 claimants (as should be).

Please add below coding to: TestMyCut.t.sol

function testIssueWithRewardDistribution() public mintAndApproveTokens {
address player3 = makeAddr("player3");
address player4 = makeAddr("player4");
players = [player1, player2, player3, player4];
vm.startPrank(user);
rewards = [20, 20, 20, 20];
contest = ContestManager(conMan).createContest(
players,
rewards,
IERC20(ERC20Mock(weth)),
80
);
ContestManager(conMan).fundContest(0);
vm.stopPrank();
vm.startPrank(player1);
Pot(contest).claimCut();
uint256 balanceBefore = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf(player1);
vm.stopPrank();
vm.startPrank(player2);
Pot(contest).claimCut();
vm.stopPrank();
vm.warp(91 days);
vm.startPrank(user);
ContestManager(conMan).closeContest(contest);
uint256 managerBalance = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf(conMan);
uint256 balanceAfter = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf(player1);
vm.stopPrank();
// @audit: the remainng is 9 when should be 18
assert(balanceAfter - balanceBefore == 9);
}

Recommended Mitigation

I think the solution should be divide the remainingRewards by claimants and not by players.

function closePot() external onlyOwner {
if (block.timestamp - i_deployedAt < 90 days) {
revert Pot__StillOpenForClaim();
}
if (remainingRewards > 0) {
uint256 managerCut = remainingRewards / managerCutPercent;
i_token.transfer(msg.sender, managerCut);
- uint256 claimantCut = (remainingRewards - managerCut) / i_players.length;
+ uint256 claimantCut = (remainingRewards - managerCut) / claimants.length;
for (uint256 i = 0; i < claimants.length; i++) {
_transferReward(claimants[i], claimantCut);
}
}
}

[H-02] Incorrect logic in `Pot::closePot` leads to unfair distribution to `claimants`, potentially locking the funds with no way to take that out

## Description in `closePot` function while calclulating the shares for claimaint cut, `i_players.length` is used, instead of `claimants.length`, causing low amount being distributed to claimants. ## Vulnerability Details [2024-08-MyCut/src/Pot.sol at main · Cyfrin/2024-08-MyCut (github.com)](https://github.com/Cyfrin/2024-08-MyCut/blob/main/src/Pot.sol#L57) `Pot::closePot` function is meant to be called once contest passed 90 days, it sends the owner cut to owner and rest is splitted among the users who claimed b/w 90 days period. However, current implementation is wrong.&#x20; It uses total users (i_players.length) instead of the users (claimants.length) who claimed during the duration. This creates an unfair distribution to the participants and some of the funds could be locked in the contract. In worst case scenerio, it could be 90% if nobody has claimed from the protocol during the 90 days duration. ## POC In existing test suite, add following test: ```solidity function testUnfairDistributionInClosePot() public mintAndApproveTokens { // Setup address[] memory testPlayers = new address[](3); testPlayers[0] = makeAddr("player1"); testPlayers[1] = makeAddr("player2"); testPlayers[2] = makeAddr("player3"); uint256[] memory testRewards = new uint256[](3); testRewards[0] = 400; testRewards[1] = 300; testRewards[2] = 300; uint256 testTotalRewards = 1000; // Create and fund the contest vm.startPrank(user); address testContest = ContestManager(conMan).createContest( testPlayers, testRewards, IERC20(ERC20Mock(weth)), testTotalRewards ); ContestManager(conMan).fundContest(0); vm.stopPrank(); // Only player1 claims their reward vm.prank(testPlayers[0]); Pot(testContest).claimCut(); // Fast forward 91 days vm.warp(block.timestamp + 91 days); // Record balances before closing the pot uint256 player1BalanceBefore = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf( testPlayers[0] ); // Close the contest vm.prank(user); ContestManager(conMan).closeContest(testContest); // Check balances after closing the pot uint256 player1BalanceAfter = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf(testPlayers[0]); // Calculate expected distributions uint256 remainingRewards = 600; // 300 + 300 unclaimed rewards uint256 ownerCut = remainingRewards / 10; // 10% of remaining rewards uint256 distributionPerPlayer = (remainingRewards - ownerCut) / 1; // as only 1 user claimed uint256 fundStucked = ERC20Mock(weth).balanceOf(address(testContest)); // actual results console.log("expected reward:", distributionPerPlayer); console.log( "actual reward:", player1BalanceAfter - player1BalanceBefore ); console.log("Fund stucked:", fundStucked); } ``` then run `forge test --mt testUnfairDistributionInClosePot -vv` in the terminal and it will show following output: ```js [⠊] Compiling...
