Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Misordering of configuration loading caused user-configured IP whitelists (whitelisted_ips) to be overwritten by defaults, resulting in unintended open access to the interactive console from unauthorized networks.

Auth Bypass: An unhandled IpSpoofAttackError during client IP resolution could crash or bypass IP-based whitelist validation, requiring resilient rescue blocks and fallback dummy values to maintain authorization enforcement.
