Scanner: caller can override confirmation threshold down to 1 — reorg safety bypass

Severity: high Domain: Scanner Labels: security, scanner, reorg

Description

scanner/api.go:170 accepts a caller-supplied confirmations value and uses it as-is without enforcing the chain-config threshold as a floor. A caller can set confirmations: 1 on a chain that requires 12 confirmations, bypassing reorg safety and causing premature payment confirmation.

Options

  1. Clamp confirmations to max(callerValue, chainConfigThreshold) — config is a floor.
  2. Ignore caller value entirely; always use chain config.
  3. Allow override only above the chain threshold.

Recommendation

Treat the chain config threshold as a hard floor (max of caller and config). Changes reorg-safety semantics.
