# Boost \_ Folks Finance 34188 - \[Smart Contract - Insight] BridgeRouterHub can add address adapter

Submitted on Tue Aug 06 2024 07:36:54 GMT-0400 (Atlantic Standard Time) by @Obin for [Boost | Folks Finance](https://immunefi.com/bounty/folksfinance-boost/)

Report ID: #34188

Report type: Smart Contract

Report severity: Insight

Target: <https://testnet.snowtrace.io/address/0xa9491a1f4f058832e5742b76eE3f1F1fD7bb6837>

Impacts:

* Bridgerouter `MANAGER_ROLE` can "irreversibly" add address(0) Adaapter

## Description

## Brief/Intro

`MANAGER_ROLE` in bridgeRouterHub can add address(0) as Adapter. This is not supposed to be allowed by the contract.

## Impact Details

When this happens, it is impossible to reverse its effect as the opposite function `removeAdapter()` will revert.

* Permanently wasting an adapterId.
* Potential adapterId synchronicities across chains be permanently disrupted.

## Mitigation

```diff
+   error adapterIndexMustNotBeZero();
+   error adapterCantBeZeroAddress();
    function addAdapter(uint16 adapterId, IBridgeAdapter adapter) external onlyRole(MANAGER_ROLE) {
        
+       if(adapterId == uint16(0)) revert adapterIndexMustNotBeZero(); //@audit The index for `adapterId` must start from 1 not 0.
        if(address(adapter) == address(0)) revert adapterCantBeZeroAddress();
        // check if no existing adapter
        if (isAdapterInitialized(adapterId)) revert AdapterInitialized(adapterId); 
        
        // add adapter
        idToAdapter[adapterId] = adapter;
        adapterToId[adapter] = adapterId;
    }
```
