Program Overview

This bug bounty program includes in its scope actively used contracts as part of Sovryn’s Mynt and Zero smart contract systems and the accompanying frontend web application.

Zero is a decentralized borrowing protocol that enables users to lock BTC collateral in a “line of credit” and borrow a BTC-backed stablecoin called ZUSD at 0% interest, up to a minimum collateral ratio. ZUSD can then be deposited into a stability pool to provide liquidity for liquidations, or redeem ZUSD at face value for the underlying BTC collateral if the ZUSD peg drops too far below its expected value of 1 ZUSD = 1 USD. More information about Zero can be found here.

Mynt is a BTC-backed stablecoin aggregator. Users can deposit BTC-backed stablecoins such as DOC and ZUSD and receive a new stablecoin called the Sovryn Dollar (DLLR). At any time, the DLLR can be burned and redeemed for one of the underlying stablecoins. The purpose of aggregating BTC-backed stablecoins this way is to aggregate previously fragmented liquidity markets for the underlying stablecoins, and to create a new stablecoin that is more resilient and scalable than either of the individual underlying stablecoins. For more information about Mynt and the Sovryn Dollar, please visit https://wiki.sovryn.com/en/sovryn-dapp/sovryn-dollar

For Whitehats: It is highly recommended that you review the details of this program in full. Although many Bug Bounty programs have standard terms and conditions, each also has their own unique details that are critical to your success.

Prior to submitting a report please review the Immunefi Bug Report Template and Best Practices.

Rewards by Threat Level

Please review how rewards are distributed based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System V2.2. This is a simplified 5-level scale system with separate scales for Smart Contracts and Websites/Apps.

Rewards for critical smart contract bug reports will be further capped at 10% of direct funds at risk if the bug discovered is exploited. However, there is a minimum reward of USD 50 000.

In cases of repeatable attacks, only the first attack is considered unless the smart contract cannot be upgraded or paused. If the attack impacts a smart contract directly holding funds that cannot be upgraded or paused, the amount of funds at risk will be calculated with the first attack being at 100% of the funds that could be stolen and then a reduction of 25% from the amount of the first attack for every 300 blocks the attack needs for subsequent attacks from the first attack, rounded down. For avoidance of doubt, if a second attack would happen at 600 blocks and then a third at 900 blocks, the funds at risk would be counted at 50% and 25% from the first attack, respectively.

Payouts and Payout Requirements:

Payouts are handled by the Sovyrn team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payouts are done in RBTC and SOV. The payment is made up of 50% in RBTC and 50% in SOV in a 24 month vesting contract.

Sovyrn commits to honoring payouts according to the terms set out in this program at the time of report submission, and to treat this program as the agreement and source of truth concerning bug reports and responsible disclosures.

For the purposes of determining report validity, this is a Primacy of Impact program.

Learn more about report validity best practices here: Best Practice - Primacy of Impact vs Primacy of Rules.

KYC Requirements

Zero and Mynt does not have a Know Your Customer (KYC) requirement for bug bounty payouts.

Audit Discoveries and Known Issues

Bug reports covering previously-discovered bugs are not eligible for any reward through the bug bounty program. If a bug report covers a known issue, it may be rejected together with proof of the issue being known before escalation of the bug report via Immunefi.

Previous audits and known issues can be found at:

require( massetManager.redeemTo(address(doc), _dllrAmount, thisAddress) == _dllrAmount, "MocIntegration:: redeemed incorrect DoC amount" );

Once fees are introduced redeemTo would always return less than _dllrAmount.

  • Missing Bridge Check in tokensReceived The function tokensReceived in MassetManager.sol lacks a check to ensure that it is called from the bridge. If an external entity relies on this event, it could result in an error, unexpected behaviour, or token loss.

  • Two-Way Pointers Between Contracts Could Break Some contracts have two-way pointers that may break due to errors made by programmers or deployers. Ideally, modifying one contract should also modify the other. Examples of such contracts include MassetManager <-> DLLR, and MassetManager <-> BasketManagerV3.

  • mint Can be Called on MetaAssetToken While transfer, transferFrom, and transferWithPermit have recipient checks in place, mint does not. As a result, it can be called with the MetaAssetToken contract as a recipient.

  • Changing factor and bridge of a Basset Can Break Usage There is currently no check to ensure that there are no massets issued for a basset before changing its factor or bridge, which could potentially result in a bad ratio between masset and basset. I suggest a require statement be added to these functions.

  • Malicious Bridge Can Cause Griefing A malicious or compromised bridge for a specific basset could force a user to convert their massets into that basset using redeemByBridge in MassetManager, even if the user has no interest in the basset or does not trust the bridge or token. I recommend that a signature check be added to this function.

  • Lack of Owner Check in upgradeToV3 The call to upgradeToV3 is in a separate transaction from deployment or initialization, and could potentially be front-run. There is currently no owner check in place for this function.

Assets in scope

Impacts only apply to assets in active use by the project like contracts on mainnet or web/app assets used in production. Any impact that applies to assets not in active use, like test or mock files, are out-of-scope of the bug bounty program unless explicitly mentioned as in-scope.

Smart Contracts

Web/App

  • Web/App - Bug reports are to include a runnable Proof of Concept (PoC) in order to prove impact.
  • All web/app bug reports must come with a PoC with an end-effect impacting an asset-in-scope in order to be considered for a reward. All PoC content must adhere to the PoC guidelines and rules of Immunefi. In the event that a PoC requires an attack on a web/app asset provided, they must still adhere to the rules provided, otherwise eligibility for a reward may be revoked.
  • For more information on PoCs please visit: Proof of Concept (PoC) Guidelines and Rules

Whitehats are highly encouraged to review any potential subdomains and what specific port(s) are in scope. Even though the domain may be the same, different ports may point to different assets.

Dev Environment and Documentation

Zero and Mynt has included dev documentation and/or instructions to help in reviewing code and exploring for bugs:

Impacts to other assets

Hackers are encouraged to submit issues outside of the outlined Impacts and Assets in Scope.

If whitehats can demonstrate a critical impact on code in production for an asset not in scope, Zero and Mynt encourages you to submit your bug report using the “primacy of impact exception” asset.
