milestones::cancel_milestone has no test proving it requires the admin's authorization #552

Closed

Description

@chonilius

Problem

Every milestones test that calls cancel_milestone runs under env.mock_all_auths(), which authorises every address. No test uses targeted env.mock_auths(&[MockAuth { address: <admin>, invoke: … fn_name: "cancel_milestone" … }]) or checks that a call signed by a different address fails. (In contracts/milestones/src/test.rs, targeted mocks exist only for no function at all.) If the require_auth() call were deleted or pointed at the wrong address, the suite would still pass.

Suggested fix

Add a positive test that mocks only the admin's auth for cancel_milestone, and a negative test that mocks another address's auth and asserts the host auth error.

    Resolved in PR #586.

    Added targeted positive and negative authorization tests asserting that:

    1. milestones::cancel_milestone fails when all auth is stripped (env.set_auths(&[])).
    2. An unauthorized third-party attacker signing with MockAuth is rejected.
    3. The designated contract admin signing with targeted MockAuth succeeds.

    Passed test suite with 59/59 passing and 0 clippy warnings.
