OceanBPoolSideStaking exploit analysis

Ocean BPool's join/exit is asymmetric, and SideStaking mirrored every single-sided mOCEAN join/exit with a datatoken stake/unstake, so repeated single-sided BPT moves returned more mOCEAN than they deposited. DeFiHackLabs reconstructs about 127,860 mOCEAN across eight victim BPool positions on Polygon.

Ocean BPool's join and exit math is asymmetric: a single-sided join credits fewer BPT to the caller than a corresponding single-sided exit returns in the underlying. SideStaking mirrored each single-sided BPT join/exit with a datatoken stake/unstake that returned the underlying to the BPT caller. The composite join then returned more mOCEAN than was deposited.

The attacker at 0x3fa8cf7fea68c8e76a9838d77889464ddfb6a6cf flashed mOCEAN, repeatedly joined via max single-sided mOCEAN into the targeted BPool pools against the historical attack contract 0xdd4bfd70117b5b6b343fc8d2c8c0075d095dbee5, and exited BPT back to mOCEAN at the asymmetric ratio.

DeFiHackLabs reports a total drained of about 127,860 mOCEAN. The drain is in 0x6dc8a7fba1303faef3ec7afa770b90b17ec5ecd73b51229277a9b0492e285796 on Polygonscan. Eight BPool victim positions on Polygon are affected.

What would have prevented it: SideStaking ought to ignore single-sided BPT moves or compute the datatoken delta from the actual mOCEAN price delta rather than mirroring the BPT leg. Asymmetric BPT join/exit math catches price-impact fees that a mirroring contract has no reason to claim.
