Vulnerability details

Impact

Incorrect access rights structure poses a centralization risk and can lead to various malicious owner type of attacks.

Proof of Concept

Currently affected:

Vader:

adjustMaxSupply, https://github.com/code-423n4/2021-11-vader/blob/main/contracts/tokens/Vader.sol#L217

VaderPoolFactory:

toggleQueue, https://github.com/code-423n4/2021-11-vader/blob/main/contracts/dex/pool/VaderPoolFactory.sol#L117

Recommended Mitigation Steps

It's possible to implement DAO as a variable and initially set it to coincide with Owner, and allow one time reset to a new, appropriate DAO contract. Current implementation doesn't allow this, hard coding DAO to be current Owner.

SamSteinGG commented 2 years ago

The modifier works as expected as it ensures that the set components function has been invoked which in turn transfers ownership to the DAO.
