Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Auth Bypass: Lenient time-window verification allowed TOTP tokens generated for future intervals to be accepted as valid. This invalidates the temporal uniqueness guarantee of one-time passwords and exposes the application to credential reuse attacks.

Injection: Improper encoding of name and username parameters during OTP URI construction allows parameter injection. This can lead to generated QR codes pointing to malicious configurations or parsing failures in authenticator applications.
