Synapse

Looks Healthy
Why this score
  • Implementation can be replaced (upgradeable proxy)
  • Short delay (3 minutes): less than typical safe standards
  • No governance bypass paths detected
Control-Plane Score
88/100
Higher = cleaner
Control plane only · code-layer risk is out of scope

Low Upgrade Risk

Low Risk

Upgrades require timelock contract and wait 3 minutes before taking effect.

What this means

The control setup looks healthy. Users and monitoring systems have meaningful time to react before any upgrade goes live.

Reaction window

3 minutes. Users have time to monitor and respond.

Proxy Pattern

Key Findings

The main control-plane risks found in this scan, with plain-English impact and remediation.

Structural Risk

Upgradeable proxy detected

Meaning: The protocol logic can be replaced after deployment. This is common, but it makes the safety of the upgrade process critical.

Fix: Document the upgrade process publicly and monitor implementation changes in real time.

Observation

Frequent upgrade activity

Meaning: Frequent upgrades increase dependency on the safety of the upgrade process.

Fix: Maintain a public changelog and monitor implementation changes in real time.

Recommended Fixes

5 of 7 recommended fixes still apply to this protocol.

Immediate fixes

Architectural changes that close the most direct risk paths.

  1. 1Remove direct wallet upgrade permissions.Already in place
  2. 2Move upgrade authority to a multisig with a meaningful threshold, such as 3-of-5 or higher.
  3. 3Add a timelock, such as 24–72 hours, to every upgrade path.
  4. 4Verify that no alternate upgrade path bypasses governance or the timelock.Already in place

Operational fixes

Process and monitoring practices that reduce ongoing risk.

  1. 1Monitor implementation changes in real time and alert users on any upgrade.
  2. 2Maintain a public changelog for every upgrade.
  3. 3Document the intended governance and emergency upgrade process.
