Vulnerability details

Impact

Anyone can mint the yield fee using mintYieldFee().

Proof of Concept

mintYieldFee() mints the shares for yield fee.

  function mintYieldFee(uint256 _shares, address _recipient) external {
    _requireVaultCollateralized();
    if (_shares > _yieldFeeTotalSupply) revert YieldFeeGTAvailable(_shares, _yieldFeeTotalSupply);

    _yieldFeeTotalSupply -= _shares;
    _mint(_recipient, _shares);

    emit MintYieldFee(msg.sender, _recipient, _shares);
  }

This function mints the shares to the _recipient and reduces _yieldFeeTotalSupply accordingly.

But there is no access control here and anyone can steal the yield fee using this function.
