Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Denial of Service: Deep promise chain resolution using process.nextTick can starve the event loop and cause call stack overflow crashes, requiring delegation to setImmediate to allow execution yield.
Denial of Service: Unresolved timer handles in promise timeouts lead to memory leaks and resource exhaustion unless clearTimeout is deterministically invoked upon promise resolution.
