Original description

The description as published by the source.

Summary

When a marketplace order is settled (MarketBuy / BuyItNow, and auction Claim), the buyer's
payment is split three ways — referral, royalties, and the seller (market-order owner)
remainder
:

marketOwnerAmount = CurrentBid − referralAmount − royaltiesAmount

Referral and royalties are paid out unconditionally, but the seller remainder is only paid
when positive (computeMarketOwnerAmount returns Ok and pays nothing when the amount is
<= 0). When referral% + royalty% exceeds 100% of the bid, marketOwnerAmount goes negative
and is silently skipped — so the marketplace pays out more KLV / sale currency than the buyer
paid in
, minting the difference out of thin air.

The combined ceiling royalty% + referral% <= 100% is checked once, at listing time (Sell).
But the two percentages are sourced asymmetrically at settlement:

  • referral % is snapshotted into the order at Sell (MarketOrderData.ReferralPercentage);
  • royalty % is never snapshotted — it is read live from the asset at buy time
    (asset.Royalties.MarketPercentage).

So the listing-time invariant is a time-of-check/time-of-use guarantee only. After a valid
listing, the asset owner raises the royalty MarketPercentage via AssetTrigger → UpdateRoyalties;
at the next buy the live royalty plus the snapshotted referral exceed 100%, and the settlement mints
the overflow. The minted funds land in attacker-controlled referral / ro…

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'github.com/klever-io/klever-go' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で github.com/klever-io/klever-go を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade github.com/klever-io/klever-go to 1.7.19

    ステージング環境で 1.7.19 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
