Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Asynchronous token validation utilizing non-sequential reactive operators (like flatMap) allowed concurrent validation execution. This let lower-precedence token validators resolve ahead of high-precedence ones, bypassing stricter authentication checks. Sequential execution must be strictly enforced.
Auth Bypass: Directly querying raw request attributes to fetch route match info instead of utilizing safe, dedicated wrapper methods can lead to authorization bypass due to unmanaged lifecycles or unexpected request states.
