Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Denial of Service: Processing files without extensions in the Swagger UI handler caused out-of-bounds index panics during string splitting. Developers must validate slice bounds and prefer robust parsing functions over direct index access.
Denial of Service: Infinite loops and lack of backoff inside stream message consumers led to severe CPU busy-spinning, resource exhaustion, and goroutine leaks. Complex loop structures in background routines must propagate cancelable contexts and use timers.
Authorization Bypass: Flawed regular expression evaluation and context value extraction failed to enforce access controls, letting unauthorized users bypass path restrictions. Early returns on regex mismatches and strict type asserting on context keys are critical.
