Avalanche vault loses ~$1.01M USDC in draw-capacity exploit

SlowMist and CertiK Alert report that roughly 1.01M USDC was lost from a TranchePool vault on Avalanche. SlowMist attributes the loss to settlement logic that treated a scheduled principal payment as received at the UTC day rollover, restoring draw capacity so the attacker could draw the same amount again with identical calldata. CertiK describes the cause as a scheduled accounting update that reopened used draw capacity, enabling a second withdrawal against the same funding.
