Fallback behavior on oracle failure

Sanctum's assessment for RD-F-051 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

No external oracle to fail in the traditional sense. For LST pricing: if any individual LST's stake pool state is unreadable (e.g., program halted or account corrupted), the Router/Infinity cannot compute that LST's value and the relevant swap route becomes unavailable. There is no fallback pricing source — the protocol does not fall back to a secondary oracle or last-known price. The failure mode is a revert/unavailability for that specific LST route rather than a wrong-price execution. Structurally acceptable for a single-LST failure but the Infinity pool's multi-LST basket concentration amplifies the aggregate exposure.

Methodology #

Identify the declared fallback behavior (pause, secondary source, last-known-price, revert) when the primary oracle reverts or reports a stale value.
