CVE-2026-24783: soroban-fixed-point-math has Incorrect Rounding and Overflow Handling in Signed Fixed-Point Math with Negatives

soroban-fixed-point-math is a fixed-point math library for Soroban smart contacts. In versions 1.3.0 and 1.4.0, the `mulDiv(x, y, z)` function incorrectly handled cases where both the intermediate product $x * y$ and the divisor $z$ were negative. The logic assumed that if the intermediate product was negative, the final result must also be negative, neglecting the sign of $z$. This resulted in rounding being applied in the wrong direction for cases where both $x * y$ and $z$ were negative. The functions most at risk are `fixed_div_floor` and `fixed_div_ceil`, as they often use non-constant numbers as the divisor $z$ in `mulDiv`. This error is present in all signed `FixedPoint` and `SorobanFixedPoint` implementations, including `i64`, `i128`, and `I256`. Versions 1.3.1 and 1.4.1 contain a patch. No known workarounds for this issue are available.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

This flaw affects a Soroban smart contract fixed-point math library. Certain negative-number calculations can round the wrong way, potentially producing incorrect financial or accounting results in contracts that rely on this library. The issue is high priority for teams using versions 1.3.0 or 1.4.0, especially where contract logic depends on signed division rounding.

Executive priority

Treat as high priority if your smart contracts use this library. The risk is integrity, not data theft: incorrect math can produce wrong contract outcomes. Upgrade affected versions promptly and validate business-critical calculations before redeployment.

Technical view

CVE-2026-24783 is CWE-682 incorrect calculation in script3 soroban-fixed-point-math versions 1.3.0 and 1.4.0. mulDiv(x,y,z) mishandles cases where x*y and z are both negative, applying rounding based on the product sign while ignoring divisor sign. Affected signed FixedPoint and SorobanFixedPoint implementations include i64, i128, and I256. Fixed releases are 1.3.1 and 1.4.1.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to projects using soroban-fixed-point-math exactly version 1.3.0 or 1.4.0. Highest-risk usage involves fixed_div_floor or fixed_div_ceil with variable divisors and signed negative values in Soroban smart contract logic.

Exploitation context

The public sources do not report active exploitation, and the CVE is not marked KEV. Practical impact depends on whether contract inputs can trigger affected signed negative calculations and whether incorrect rounding changes balances, prices, limits, or other integrity-sensitive outcomes.

Researcher notes

The advisory identifies the vulnerable logic and affected versions but does not provide evidence of exploitation. Focus review on signed mulDiv callers, especially fixed_div_floor and fixed_div_ceil paths where z is variable. Avoid assuming exposure unless dependency version and reachable negative-value paths are confirmed.

Mitigation direction

  • Upgrade soroban-fixed-point-math 1.3.0 to 1.3.1 where applicable.
  • Upgrade soroban-fixed-point-math 1.4.0 to 1.4.1 where applicable.
  • Review vendor advisory and release notes before deploying contract updates.
  • Prioritize contracts using signed fixed_div_floor or fixed_div_ceil with non-constant divisors.
  • No workaround is named in the sources; follow vendor guidance if upgrade is delayed.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory repositories and deployed contracts for soroban-fixed-point-math dependency versions.
  • Confirm no production build uses version 1.3.0 or 1.4.0.
  • Review math paths using signed FixedPoint or SorobanFixedPoint types.
  • Add regression tests for negative numerator/product and negative divisor rounding behavior.
  • Verify patched dependency is included in rebuilt and redeployed artifacts.
