Towns A-11

Security Audit

September 11, 2025

Version 1.0.0

Presented by 0xMacro

Table of Contents

Introduction

This document includes the results of the security audit for towns's smart contract code as found in the section titled ‘Source Code’. The security audit was performed by the Macro security team from July 28 to July 29, 2025.

The purpose of this audit is to review the source code of certain towns Solidity contracts, and provide feedback on the design, architecture, and quality of the source code with an emphasis on validating the correctness and security of the software in its entirety.

Disclaimer: While Macro’s review is comprehensive and has surfaced some changes that should be made to the source code, this audit should not solely be relied upon for security, as no single audit is guaranteed to catch all possible bugs.

Overall Assessment

The following is an aggregation of issues found by the Macro Audit team:

Severity Count Acknowledged Won't Do Addressed
Low 1 1 - -
Code Quality 1 1 - -

towns was quick to respond to these issues.

Specification

Our understanding of the specification was based on the following sources:

Trust Model, Assumptions, and Accepted Risks (TMAAR)

End User

Considered untrusted and potentially malicious. The system is designed to be defensive against users attempting to claim tokens for which they are not eligible.

Protocol Governance (Owner)

Highly trusted. The owner is a privileged role and authorized entity that has complete administrative control over the airdrop conditions. This entity is trusted to:

Rewards Distribution Contract

Trusted core infrastructure. The DropFacet trusts the rewardsDistribution contract (set during initialization) to perform staking operations correctly.

Points Contract (TownsPoints)

Trusted core infrastructure. The DropFacet trusts this contract to handle the burning of points associated with a claim.

Source Code

The following source code was reviewed during the audit:

Specifically, we audited the following contracts within ./packages/contracts/src/ repository directory:

Issue Descriptions and Recommendations

Click on an issue to jump to it, or scroll down to see them all.

Security Level Reference

We quantify issues in three parts:

  1. The high/medium/low/spec-breaking impact of the issue:
    • How bad things can get (for a vulnerability)
    • The significance of an improvement (for a code quality issue)
    • The amount of gas saved (for a gas optimization)
  2. The high/medium/low likelihood of the issue:
    • How likely is the issue to occur (for a vulnerability)
  3. The overall critical/high/medium/low severity of the issue.

This third part – the severity level – is a summary of how much consideration the client should give to fixing the issue. We assign severity according to the table of guidelines below:

Severity Description
(C-x)
Critical

We recommend the client must fix the issue, no matter what, because not fixing would mean significant funds/assets WILL be lost.

(H-x)
High

We recommend the client must address the issue, no matter what, because not fixing would be very bad, or some funds/assets will be lost, or the code’s behavior is against the provided spec.

(M-x)
Medium

We recommend the client to seriously consider fixing the issue, as the implications of not fixing the issue are severe enough to impact the project significantly, albiet not in an existential manner.

(L-x)
Low

The risk is small, unlikely, or may not relevant to the project in a meaningful way.

Whether or not the project wants to develop a fix is up to the goals and needs of the project.

(Q-x)
Code Quality

The issue identified does not pose any obvious risk, but fixing could improve overall code quality, on-chain composability, developer ergonomics, or even certain aspects of protocol design.

(I-x)
Informational

Warnings and things to keep in mind when operating the protocol. No immediate action required.

(G-x)
Gas Optimizations

The presented optimization suggestion would save an amount of gas significant enough, in our opinion, to be worth the development cost of implementing it.

Issue Details

L-1

Leaf generation does not include conditionId

Topic
Leaf robustness
Status
Acknowledged
Impact
Medium
Likelihood
Low

In DropClaim contract, the function createLeaf() currently excludes the conditionId parameter. This means a proof is not cryptographically tied to a specific claim condition. If two different claim conditions were to accidentally have the same Merkle root, a user's proof will be valid for both.

function createLeaf(Claim calldata claim) internal pure returns (bytes32 leaf) {
    address account = claim.account;
    uint256 quantity = claim.quantity;
    uint256 points = claim.points;
    assembly ("memory-safe") {
        let fmp := mload(0x40)
        mstore(0, account)
        mstore(0x20, quantity)
        mstore(0x40, points)
        leaf := keccak256(0, 0x60)
        mstore(0, leaf)
        leaf := keccak256(0, 0x20)
        mstore(0x40, fmp)
    }
}

Because claims are tracked by groupId in the supplyClaimedByWallet mapping, this would allow users to make multiple claims. Although the protocol owner must set the same root multiple times, and it’s assumed that this trusted entity will set proper values, this leaves a limited replay vector that could enable token draining.

Consider including the conditionId in the leaf generation.

Q-1

Insufficient view functionality for retrieving active conditions

Topic
Data Availability
Status
Acknowledged
Quality Impact
Medium

Consider implementing a view function to fetch available active conditions to help interoperability with off-chain components.

Suggested draft code:

function _getActiveClaimConditions()
        internal
        view
        returns (DropGroup.ClaimCondition[] memory activeConditions)
    {
    (uint48 conditionStartId, uint48 conditionCount) = _getStartIdAndCount();
    if (conditionCount == 0) {
        DropFacet__NoActiveClaimCondition.selector.revertWith();
    }
    activeConditions = new DropGroup.ClaimCondition[](conditionCount);

    uint256 activeIndex;
    for (uint256 i; i < conditionCount; ++i) {
        DropGroup.ClaimCondition storage condition =
            _getClaimConditionById(conditionStartId + i);
        uint256 endTimestamp = condition.endTimestamp;

        if (
            block.timestamp >= condition.startTimestamp &&
            (endTimestamp == 0
| block.timestamp < endTimestamp)
        ) {
            // Add the active condition to the array and increment the index
            activeConditions[activeIndex] = condition;
            activeIndex++;
        }
    }

    if (activeIndex == 0) {
        DropFacet__NoActiveClaimCondition.selector.revertWith();
    }

    // Truncate the array to the actual number of active conditions
    assembly {
        mstore(activeConditions, activeIndex)
    }
}
