Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Inadequate verification during authentication allowed disabled user accounts to successfully log in and establish valid sessions, completely bypassing account lifecycle enforcement.
Insecure TLS Configuration: Failure to explicitly configure and restrict SSL/TLS protocols during filter initialization left FTPS server instances susceptible to protocol downgrade attacks.
Timing Attack: Standard string equality comparisons for user passwords introduced side-channel timing vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to systematically guess credentials.
