Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Typographical errors and incorrect payload serialization (sending 'polices' as a CSV string instead of 'policies' as a JSON array) cause Vault to silently ignore requested security policy restrictions on newly generated tokens, resulting in over-privileged token generation.
Auth Bypass: Using the wrong HTTP verb (POST instead of GET) when calling Vault's token self-lookup endpoint causes API failures or unexpected routing behavior during authentication token validation.
