Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Attackers could bypass authentication or spoof internal tasks by injecting internal message attributes like `report_back_ptc_thread_id` and `query_type` due to a lack of service token verification. In addition, legacy authentication headers like `X-User-Id` allowed remote impersonation before being replaced with strict Bearer token checks.

Denial of Service: Asynchronous tasks, particularly Daytona sandbox calls and file uploads/downloads, frequently lacked timeouts, leading to hung event loops, worker thread exhaustion, and persistent resource locks.

Path Traversal: File transfer and execution mechanisms in the sandbox failed to properly canonicalize paths before validating directory bounds, allowing malicious paths to escape target sandboxes.
