About the Client

Bounce Tech is a leveraged token protocol that creates synthetic leveraged exposure to perpetual futures markets. Users can mint/redeem leveraged tokens (like “ETH 10x Long”) that automatically maintain target leverage ratios through integration with Hyperliquid’s perpetual trading infrastructure, while earning fees that get distributed to BOUNCE token stakers.

High Severity Issues and Fixes

[H-01] Spot and perp balance is not considered for calculating vault value

Impact: Internal accounting is messed up due to wrong TVL

Fix: Track spot and perp balances

[H-02] Stepwise jumps occur upon spot/perps balance top-ups, allowing MEV attacks

Impact: MEV bots can grief balance changes

Fix: Add a mapping to track in between balances

[H-03] Position value is computed incorrectly for shorts

Impact: Wrong postion values, messes up internal accounting

Fix: Change the math to also account for shorts

[H-04] Unstaking operations are not validated against the creator

Impact: Users need to wait for withdraws, but can be front runned and claimed by other users

Fix: Validate the one executing the wothdraw to the user who made it
