Recurring patterns

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

Information Disclosure: XML payloads were parsed using SimpleXML's Persister without disabling property/environment variable substitution, potentially exposing sensitive environment configuration or credentials to untrusted XML inputs. This risk is tracked under CVE-2025-59952.
Auth Bypass: Incomplete header inclusion during AWS Signature V4 calculations (such as omitting Content-Length and Content-Type) allows transit-time tampering of requests, potentially bypassing integrity checks and authorization policies.
