Research direction
Read extern/storage-sealing/fsm.go around lines 410-447, especially the goroutine at line 441 and its use of the range variable sector. Determine whether the goroutine can use the wrong sector when it starts, then classify the finding as a bug, mitigated, or desirable behavior as requested by the issue.
