Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Remote dataset operations (push, pull, remove) initially lacked adequate authorization policy checks and structured cryptographic signature verification, risking unauthorized modifications or access to peer datasets.
Auth Bypass: Crucial dataset operations (rename, delete, publish, and versioning steps) allowed modifications without proper writer-identity checks against the dataset logbook owner.
Cryptographic Issues: JWT parsing did not restrict verification to expected cryptographic algorithms, allowing potential signature validation bypass via unexpected algorithms (such as 'none').
