Key Strengths

S3Active bug bounty on Cantina with significant maximum payout covering both V1 and V2 contracts

Key Risks
R1March 2026 Resolv USR exploit caused confirmed bad debt across multiple markets at 100% utilization, representing the first confirmed loss in a Gauntlet vault
R2Morpho's immutable oracle design was exploited as stale prices continued valuing collapsed collateral at pre-exploit levels, an architectural limitation with no correction mechanism
R3The supplyOnBehalf function bypassed vault-level supply caps, force-allocating capital into compromised markets while automated allocation continued for hours with no circuit breakers
R4Severe TVL decline after two major contagion events in five months, with significant portions of remaining TVL frozen at 100% utilization across stressed markets
