Recurring patterns

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

Denial of Service: Unhandled exceptions and incomplete transport tear-down during failed socket handshakes allow external scanners to leak connections, leading to resource exhaustion. Developers must ensure that transport state validation occurs before aborting connections.

Denial of Service: Compiling native acceleration modules with host-specific SIMD instruction sets (-march=native) causes SIGILL crashes when distributed binaries are run on older processor architectures. Safe, modern baseline flags must be maintained.

Insecure Release Pipeline: A silent validation pass in the release pipeline occurred when checksum verification skipped missing wheels. The workflow must explicitly fail if zero verified wheels are found.
