Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: The JWT helper extension was historically configured with token validation parameters that skipped lifetime/expiry checks, which would allow expired tokens to be accepted as valid. Developers must ensure that ValidateLifetime is explicitly set to true.

Auth Bypass: Minimal endpoints across several domain microservices (Booking, Flight, Passenger) were exposed without enforcing the required API scopes, leaving raw endpoints vulnerable to unauthorized access. High-severity remediation required explicitly chaining authorization policies to the endpoint definitions.

Insecure TLS Validation: A dangerous certificate validation bypass (DangerousAcceptAnyServerCertificateValidator) was used during JWT configuration, leaving backchannel communications vulnerable to MitM attacks. Production code must require HTTPS metadata and validate certificates properly.
