Chainlink aggregator min/max bound misconfig

Axelar Network's assessment for RD-F-060 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

Axelar's gateway contracts do not consume Chainlink aggregator output for value-securing decisions. The 19 Chainlink feeds in the data cache are peripheral (integrator-side). Chainlink min/max bound misconfiguration is not a risk surface for Axelar's own contracts.

Methodology #

Determine whether the Chainlink aggregator's `minAnswer` and `maxAnswer` circuit-breaker bounds are misconfigured (too wide or too narrow) for the asset class.
