Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Information Disclosure: Inverted boolean validation logic and improper default fallbacks caused the interceptor to attach JWTs directly to non-whitelisted and blacklisted external endpoints, risking severe credential exposure.
Information Disclosure: Fragile domain matching logic (comparing host instead of hostname) allowed port differences to break white/blacklist comparisons, potentially leading to unauthorized token sending.
Auth Bypass: Failure to treat tokens with missing or unparseable expiration dates as expired resulted in an authentication bypass where invalid tokens were accepted.
