Recurring patterns

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

SSRF: A bypass in the central validator allowed non-globally-reachable IANA ranges to slip through, enabling script-driven attacks against internal resources. Strict blocklists must be kept up-to-date.

SSRF: Parsing vulnerabilities involving IPv6 zone identifiers allowed malicious hostnames to bypass IP validation logic by evaluating to nil, highlighting the risk of custom parsing over robust standard-library mechanisms.

SSRF: External integrations like Kafka brokers bypass default outbound HTTP protections unless a customized validated dialer is explicitly injected.
