Recurring patterns

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

Injection: Constructing JMX ObjectName instances using raw metric keys and values allows malicious or malformed metric tags to corrupt the JMX domain structure or inject invalid properties. This can lead to registration failures, resource exhaustion, or unexpected administrative behaviors. The fix enforces a strict regex replacement, substituting non-alphanumeric characters with underscores.
