fix(tipjar): bound PendingAdmin/PendingFeeCollector lifetime with expiry + duplicate-proposal guard

[k-deejah]

Summary

Closes #413.

The two-step admin-transfer (propose_admin + accept_admin) and its fee-collector mirror (propose_fee_collector + accept_fee_collector) previously stored the pending address as a bare Address with no expiry. A proposal that was never accepted remained valid indefinitely — if the intended recipient's key was later compromised or changed hands, an attacker could call accept_admin years after the original intent. This is the same class of "unbounded-lifetime pending state" risk that PendingUpgrade, PendingPayoutChange, Operator, and guardian_expiry all explicitly account for; admin transfer was the only exception.

What changed

contracts/tipjar/src/lib.rs

New constant

pub const ADMIN_TRANSFER_EXPIRY_LEDGERS: u32 = 34_560; // ~2 days at 5 s/ledger

Storage layout change
Both DataKey::PendingAdmin and DataKey::PendingFeeCollector now store (Address, u32) (address + expiry ledger) instead of a bare Address. The expiry is set at proposal time:

let expiry_ledger = env.ledger().sequence() + ADMIN_TRANSFER_EXPIRY_LEDGERS;

Expiry enforcement in accept_admin / accept_fee_collector

if env.ledger().sequence() > expiry_ledger {
}

A stale proposal can be cleared by the current admin via the existing cancel_admin_transfer / cancel_fee_collector_transfer entrypoints, after which a fresh proposal can be issued.

Duplicate-proposal guard
propose_admin and propose_fee_collector now panic with typed errors if a proposal is already pending, matching the existing UpgradeAlreadyPending guard on propose_upgrade:

if env.storage().instance().has(&DataKey::PendingAdmin) {
}

New error variants

Value	Name
27	AdminTransferExpired
28	FeeCollectorTransferExpired
29	AdminTransferAlreadyPending
30	FeeCollectorTransferAlreadyPending

Event schema change — indexers must be updated

AdminTransferProposed data tuple gains expiry_ledger:

• Before: (current_admin, new_admin)
• After: (current_admin, new_admin, expiry_ledger)

FeeCollectorTransferProposed data tuple gains expiry_ledger:

• Before: (current_admin, new_collector)
• After: (current_admin, new_collector, expiry_ledger)

contracts/tipjar/src/test.rs

Eight new tests covering the new behaviour:

• propose_admin_rejects_second_proposal_while_one_is_pending
• accept_admin_after_expiry_panics_with_typed_error
• accept_admin_exactly_at_expiry_ledger_succeeds (boundary: ledger == expiry_ledger is still valid)
• cancel_admin_transfer_clears_expired_proposal_so_new_one_can_be_proposed
• propose_fee_collector_rejects_second_proposal_while_one_is_pending
• accept_fee_collector_after_expiry_panics_with_typed_error
• accept_fee_collector_exactly_at_expiry_ledger_succeeds
• cancel_fee_collector_transfer_clears_expired_proposal_so_new_one_can_be_proposed

contracts/tipjar/src/test_upgrade.rs

admin_transfer_events_have_the_documented_topics_and_data updated to assert the new three-field data tuple including expiry_ledger.

---

Design rationale

All other "pending state" in this contract carries an explicit deadline:

Feature	Storage value	Expiry mechanism
PendingUpgrade	(hash, unlock_ledger)	execute_upgrade checks sequence >= unlock_ledger
PendingPayoutChange	(address, effective_ledger)	withdraw applies change once sequence >= effective_ledger
Operator	(allowance, expiry_ledger)	withdraw rejects if sequence > expiry_ledger
guardian_expiry	field in PauseState	effective_pause_flags ignores guardian bits past expiry
PendingAdmin (this PR)	(address, expiry_ledger)	accept_admin rejects if sequence > expiry_ledger
PendingFeeCollector (this PR)	(address, expiry_ledger)	accept_fee_collector rejects if sequence > expiry_ledger

The 2-day window (34_560 ledgers) matches PAYOUT_DELAY_LEDGERS so all deadline-bearing pending state shares the same order of magnitude. It is long enough for the proposed address to act under normal circumstances, and short enough that a forgotten proposal cannot be exploited years later by a compromised key.

---

Breaking changes

• AdminTransferProposed and FeeCollectorTransferProposed event data payloads now contain a third field (expiry_ledger: u32). Off-chain indexers or SDKs that decode these events by positional tuple must be updated.
• propose_admin and propose_fee_collector now error (AdminTransferAlreadyPending / FeeCollectorTransferAlreadyPending) instead of silently overwriting a pending proposal. Callers that previously relied on silent overwrite must cancel first.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added expiration periods for administrator and fee-collector transfer proposals.
  • Transfer proposal events now display the expiry ledger.
  • Added clear errors for duplicate pending proposals and expired transfers.
  • Expired proposals can be cancelled before submitting replacements.

• Bug Fixes

  • Prevented acceptance of transfers after their expiration.
  • Improved retrieval of pending transfer addresses.

Changes

Transfer proposal expiry

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Expiry contract and transfer state contracts/tipjar/src/lib.rs	Adds a public expiry constant, expiry and duplicate-pending errors, event expiry fields, and tuple-based pending storage.
Admin transfer expiry flow contracts/tipjar/src/lib.rs, contracts/tipjar/src/test.rs, contracts/tipjar/src/test_upgrade.rs	Admin proposals reject duplicates and expire after the configured ledger window. Tests cover expiry boundaries, cancellation, replacement proposals, and event data.
Fee-collector transfer expiry flow contracts/tipjar/src/lib.rs, contracts/tipjar/src/test.rs	Fee-collector proposals use the same duplicate, expiry, cancellation, replacement, and boundary rules. Tests cover these cases.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 085d9

The change adds expiry and duplicate-proposal protection, but existing pending transfers may become unreadable after an upgrade because their stored format changes without an accompanying migration. This can prevent valid admin or fee-collector transfers from being accepted or queried, so the migration handling should be addressed before merging.

Explanation

The PR satisfies issue #413 by adding expiry enforcement for pending admin transfers and using the existing cancellation path to retract expired proposals. It also addresses the same risk in the fee-collector transfer flow.

and related functions to match the guards’ boundary: acceptance remains valid on
expiry_ledger and is rejected only afterward. Replace wording that marks
expiry_ledger itself as invalid with “after expiry_ledger” or equivalent “on or
before expiry_ledger” language, consistently across all affected comments.
- Line 818: Update DATA_VERSION and migrate so legacy PendingAdmin and
PendingFeeCollector values stored as Address are cleared or transformed into the
new (Address, u32) representation before access by accept_* and get_pending_*;
add upgrade coverage with both pending keys populated.
