Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: The lack of a database-level CheckConstraint on UserSocialAuth permitted empty UIDs to be saved, creating an opening for critical account-merging and session-sharing exploits. Ensure any backfilled models enforce UID constraints.
Auth Bypass: Missing token signature and claim validations (iat, exp, iss, aud) in OpenID Connect ID token decoding allowed token spoofing. Future backend connectors must always explicitly configure and enforce these JWT claims.
Auth Bypass: A flaw where email verification codes were not explicitly bound to the target email address allowed attackers to bypass step-up authentication. Developers must verify that verification flows strictly check the association of code parameters.
