Recurring patterns

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

Memory Corruption: A signature mismatch in the Transcoder_transcode function treated an input buffer pointer as a single scalar UByte, leading to out-of-bounds memory access and corruption when treating the scalar value as an address.
