Bug: Refunding Pen items still allows 1 attack

I play quite a bit of Karthus and I noticed that if you have this setup for example:

item 1001 item 1026 item 1052

You can buyitem 3020 , then Refund them, buy item 3136 , then refund it, buyitem 3135 , then obviously refund it, and finish off with item 3089 , your next attack(R) will not apply AP from the refunded items, but will fully apply Magic Pen Statistics(Flat and %) even though you do not have the items.

The effect only works for 1 attack. It also wears off, it lasts the exact duration of homeguards, however teleport can get you in lane for it in time. Works on any champion, but Karthus is obviously broken because of this.

Does it work with undoing? If it does then it is a problem

It does, after trying it a bunch here we've concluded it works with void staff, last whisper, and Lethality items.

it has a weird interaction with flat magic pen however, it only benefits you if the enemy has bonus magic resist, so it is not functioning like normal magic pen.

In almost all cases, it adds damage.

When you 'cast' undo itself, you can also clearly see the Lethality, % Armor and % magic pen stat remains. The Magic Pen Stat disappears instantly, even tho it sometimes adds damage too.
