rubric v1.7.0

Admin has mint() with unlimited max

crvUSD (Curve Stablecoin)'s assessment for RD-F-042 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

crvUSD token has mint() restricted to minter role. Minter is ControllerFactory (mints to new markets within debt ceilings). Debt ceilings set by ControllerFactory admin (Deployer 2 EOA) with no timelock. No explicit on-chain hard max supply cap on the token contract. Debt ceiling mechanism is the soft cap. EOA can increase debt ceilings and thus enable more minting immediately. Graded yellow: minting constrained by governance-set debt ceilings, but EOA can change those without timelock.
