Recurring patterns

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

Command Injection: Arbitrary commands can be injected during compilation by passing dangerous parameters, such as the '-toolexec' flag, inside the GOFLAGS environment variable. Developers should ensure environment variables are tightly validated against a strict allowlist.
Path Traversal: Symlinks contained within the 'kodata' directory can resolve to locations outside the directory structure, resulting in the leakage of sensitive host files into the built container images.
Path Traversal: Unsanitized file paths inside dependency archives can escape the intended target extraction directory when dependency zip files are processed.
