Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Flaws in backend token parsing, exception handling (such as catching narrow JWE exceptions), and returning null values instead of raising explicit HTTP 403 errors allowed unauthenticated requests to bypass routing guards.
Auth Bypass: Misconfigured middleware and callback routes allowed the bypass of security controls, including CAPTCHA verifications and the misuse of hardcoded fallback credentials in non-production environments.
Auth Bypass: Critical chat-related endpoints (listing, creating, and retrieving chat messages) lacked required FastAPI authentication dependency injection, leaving them exposed to the public.
