Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Flawed logic in the generated validation code allowed validation ratcheting checks to be skipped when the previous object context was nil or absent. This permits unauthorized or invalid transitions of resource states to bypass enforcement mechanisms.
Improper Input Validation: The validation generator incorrectly extracted the map value type instead of the map key type when processing the '+k8s:eachKey' directive. This resulted in map keys escaping validation, potentially allowing malformed keys to bypass downstream constraints.
