Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Integer overflow or parsing failures in user specification strings (e.g., numeric UID strings) can cause the system to fall back to username lookup, potentially running a container with root/0 privileges.
Auth Bypass: Applying capabilities to processes associated with external PIDs can mistakenly bind ambient or bounding capabilities to the caller's own process if the target PID verification logic is bypassed or returns early.
