Recurring patterns

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

Insecure Deserialization: Using unsafe YAML parsing libraries can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code on the host running the card module by crafting a malicious YAML configuration.

Path Traversal: Unsafe extraction of tarballs via tarfile.extractall allows malicious archives to write arbitrary files outside the target directory, potentially overwriting system files or utilities.

Code Execution: Implicit namespace packaging behavior in Python can cause remote environments to load unexpected local extensions or directories if package boundaries and __init__.py markers are omitted.
