Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Insecure database initialization and lack of strict file-system path canonicalization in storage adapters allow attackers to bypass credential and boundary checks during store creation.

Auth Bypass: Failing to close the underlying storage engine when credential validation fails allows unauthenticated access to database resources left open in memory.

Auth Bypass: Deserialization issues in the underlying H2 MVStore engine could lead to arbitrary code execution or bypass of logical access controls during object stream processing.
