Since the UnstoppableLender contract contains the assertion assert(poolBalance == balanceBefore);, DVT can be transferred dirtectly to the contract causing this assertion to fail, breaking the contract.
Since there is a fee of 1 ETH paid each time a flash loan is taken, and anyone can call the flashloan function, the contact can be drained of all ETH by calling the flashloan function 10 times.
Since the flashLoan allows for calling any function, the approve function can be called on the DVT token allowing the attacker to withdraw any amount of DVT from the contract by using the ERC-20 transferFrom function.
This challenge can be solved by taking a flash loan from the pool and depositing the loan back into the pool using the deposit function. This gives the contract that made the flashloan the ability to later withdraw this ETH. The flashloan will succeed as the ETH balance of the flashloan pool will be the same.
A governance proposal can be created in a flash loan that would call the drainAllFunds function (from the governance contract) that would transfer all funds to the attacker.
