Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Insecure default configuration of newly instantiated SSLEngine instances without explicit client/server mode assignment can lead to critical authentication mismatches and potential bypass of cryptographic boundaries.
Auth Bypass: Missing directives for explicit client certificate identity validation could allow unauthenticated requests if the underlying TLS handshake does not properly assert subject identity boundaries.
HTTP Request Smuggling: Improper handling of multiple Transfer-Encoding headers (CVE-2021-23339) allows HTTP request smuggling, bypassing frontend reverse-proxy routing controls.
