Immutable oracle address

Frax Finance's assessment for RD-F-180 — scored red on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

[★ CANDIDATE — PD-017 HELD; compose.py counts as ★] Fraxlend pair oracle addresses (_oracleMultiply and _oracleDivide) are stored as immutable constructor arguments per pair deployment. No setOracle() or oracle-update admin function exists at the pair level. Confirmed by: (1) Code4rena 2022 Fraxlend audit describes _oracleMultiply/_oracleDivide as pair-deploy-time parameters; (2) Etherscan ABI for FRAX/FXS pair (0xDbe88DBAc39263c47629ebbA02b3eF4cf0752A72) shows oracleMultiply() and oracleDivide() as view functions with no corresponding setter; (3) Fraxlend factory creates new pairs with fixed oracles — existing pairs cannot update feeds. If a Chainlink feed used by an existing Fraxlend pair is deprecated, compromised, or the collateral depegs, the pair cannot be repriced — borrowers remain exposed at stale prices until liquidity migrates to a new pair. The FraxlendWhitelist controls new-pair oracle eligibility but has no effect on existing pairs. This is the exact USR/USDX/xUSD/USD0++

Methodology #

Determine whether any collateral oracle address is marked `immutable` in protocol config with no admin-replaceable adapter wrapper, preventing the protocol from repricing when the upstream asset depegs.
