Error when performing a transfer through a proxy contract.

Error on "transfer" call from a contract to a proxy contract

Description

When you have two contracts deployed with proxies, and when one of them tries to call the other one to attempt a transfer, it fails, apparently it runs out of gas. Polygon edge sets a gas of 2300 when doing this, which is correct for a transfer, but for some reason it's not working as expected. Increasing the gas assigned there seems to work but is not a good solution.
When making a "call" instead of a "transfer" it works fine.

Your environment

• Mac OS 14.0, also ubuntu 20.04
• Polygon edge v1.3.1, v0.6.3, v0.6.1 (tried it on those versions)
• Branch Develop
• Locally and on AWS cloud.
• Locally runs on docker, runs natively on AWS.

Steps to reproduce

• Deploy two contracts behind proxies, one contract calls the other one performing a transfer.
  i.e.:
  Contract 1:

function withdrawFromTest2usingTransfer(
        Test2 test2Address,
        uint256 amount
    ) public {
        test2Address.withdrawFromTest2usingTransfer(
            payable(address(this)),
            amount
        );
        emit EthReceived(amount);
    }

Contract 2:

function withdrawFromTest2usingTransfer(
        address payable recipientAddress,
        uint256 amount
    ) public {
        recipientAddress.transfer(amount);
    }

Expected behavior

• To be able to perform a transfer from a contrat to another contract behind a proxy.

Proposed solution

If you have an idea on how to fix this issue, please write it down here, so we can begin discussing it

[goran-ethernal]

Are you passing the address of the proxy of the second contract, or the address of the contract implementation itself?

[alfarkas]

Hi @goran-ethernal , thank you for answering.
The contract 1 is behind a proxy, I call the contract1Proxy function that calls the contract 2 which is not behind a proxy, then contract2 makes a transfer to the address of contract1Proxy.
You can see an example on this repo https://github.com/NicolasMenendez/poc-polygon-edge.
We tested the same code on other networks and it works just fine.

@goran-ethernal Were you able to reproduce the error? need more info?
Let me know if i need to provide more details.

[goran-ethernal]

We will try to reproduce the error, and let you know what we found out.
