Recurring patterns

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

Out-of-bounds Read: Inadequate boundary checks during memory deserialization allow out-of-bounds reads and integer overflow bypasses when invoking memory retrieval methods. This could lead to information disclosure or application crashes when processing untrusted input data.
Out-of-bounds Read: Lack of defensive capacity limits on memory-buffer retrieval calls during the deserialization of array sketches can lead to heap or buffer boundary violations.
