Closes #234.

Risk assessment of Flying Tulip — FT Lend (ftDNMM) lending market on Ethereum. Report: reports/report/flying-tulip.md. All onchain values verified with cast + Etherscan at block 25264957 (Jun 7, 2026).

Verdict

High Risk — 5.0/5.0, gated by the "No audit" critical gate: the in-scope lending engine (PositionsManager, ConfigRegistry, IRMs, RFQ engines) and ftUSD have no public/dedicated audit. Residual weighted category subtotal is ≈3.5 (Elevated) if that gate is later cleared.

Key findings (onchain-verified)

  • Single 3-of-5 Gnosis Safe root of trust, no timelock (0x1118…70Cb): owns/upgrades every UUPS proxy, is ftUSD owner+masterMinter+pauser+blacklister, and can override oracle prices (setLastGoodPrice). Guardian is a 3-of-4 Safe sharing the same signers.
  • Unaudited in-scope contracts (verified on Etherscan but never security-reviewed); only the token-sale Escrow (PeckShield/Cantina) and the separate ftPUT product (Sherlock contest) were audited. No bug bounty, not in SEAL Safe Harbor.
  • Tiny & new: ~$2.7M supplied / ~$0.18M borrowed across 6 assets; ~59% concentrated in one WBTC depositor; launched ~Feb 2026 (~3.5 months).
  • Positives: onchain over-collateralization, blue-chip collateral, real Chainlink oracle for liquidations, idle supply earning Aave/Spark yield.
