Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: The permissions cache has historically failed to validate active/suspended statuses of organizations or account administrative roles, allowing unauthorized or deactivated accounts to bypass access controls. Strict status checks must be applied before serving cached rights.
Auth Bypass: EVM message calls and contract simulations previously bypassed multi-tenancy verification when targeting accounts with empty or missing code, allowing unauthorized cross-tenant state querying. Checks must gate both code-bearing and empty accounts.
Denial of Service: Integer overflows in quadratic memory size expansion and gas cost calculations historically allowed malicious contracts to exhaust host resources. Checks using safe 64-bit bounded arithmetic wrappers are essential to prevent overflow panics.
