Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Incomplete certificate configurations could bypass intended client validation or silently fall back to system trust roots unexpectedly when only partial keypairs are provided.

Insecure TLS Configuration: The library historically allowed weak TLS 1.0/1.1 protocols and lacked explicit minimum version enforcement on both client and server configurations, leaving transport channels vulnerable to downgrade attacks.

Auth Bypass: Insecure Windows DACL inheritance on local Unix domain sockets could permit unauthorized local processes to connect to privileged daemon sockets.
