Recurring patterns

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

Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm: The use of the broken MD5 hashing algorithm for password storage could allow attackers who obtain the hashes to rapidly conduct offline brute-force and collision attacks to recover plaintext credentials. Upgrading to a modern, secure algorithm like SHA-512 mitigates this risk.
