Recurring patterns

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

Denial of Service: Improper transport-layer input checks can cause the client to block indefinitely on input buffers, leading to thread or resource exhaustion. Ensuring `can_use_input` is consistently validated before awaiting input is critical to preventing blocking DoS.
Denial of Service: Unchecked use of `unwrap()` during proxy URI parsing allows malformed external inputs to trigger unhandled panics, crashing the consuming application. Replacing panicking unwraps with safe error propagation is vital for handling untrusted environmental configurations.
