Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: A missing return statement when parsing RSA private keys (loadPrivateKey) returned a nil key and nil error, creating severe authentication and trust-boundary bypasses.
Auth Bypass: Misidentifying signature algorithms for opaque private keys by neglecting proper public key type assertions can lead to cryptographic signature failures or bypasses.
Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information: The client transport failed to strictly enforce secure connections, requiring a wrapper round tripper assertion to reject insecure non-HTTPS communications to ACME servers.
