Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Denial of Service: Unhandled write failures and stream error omissions within Busboy parsing led to process crashes. Strict upload size limits, explicit stream error handlers, and generic write catch-blocks must be applied globally to all file upload surfaces.
CSRF: The use of cookie-based JWT or session tokens without proper verification hooks allowed State-Changing requests to bypass origin validation. CSRF validations must be explicitly integrated when cookies transport authentication tokens.
Auth Bypass: Inconsistent parsing of JWT user identifier types led to type-confusion issues during user lookups. Strict verification of identifier shapes must occur before querying user persistence models.
