Vulnerability details

Impact

You should check how recent the Chainlink Oracle's data is. Recently we had the UST oracle that was paused which some protocols didn't handle properly: https://ambcrypto.com/chainlink-how-a-price-discrepancy-resulted-in-millions-lost-from-defi-protocols/

Currently, you only check whether the price is 0 or negative. Here's Chainlink's documentation on risk mitigation

Tools Used

none

Recommended Mitigation Steps

At least verify that the data is recent. This depends on the oracle. They push updates at different time intervals.
