Vulnerability details

Impact

The OpenZeppelin SafeERC20 safeApprove() function has been deprecated, as seen in the comments of the OpenZeppelin code. Using this deprecated function can lead to unintended reverts and potentially the locking of funds. A deeper discussion on the deprecation of this function is in OZ issue #2219.

Proof of Concept

The deprecated function is found on lines 82-83 of sNOTE.sol.

Recommended Mitigation Steps

As suggested by the OpenZeppelin comment, replace safeApprove() with safeIncreaseAllowance().
