Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Missing control flow termination ('return') after outputting an error response allows the password grant flow to proceed with token issuance even after validation has failed.
Auth Bypass: Inadequate verification of the client's redirect URI during authorization code exchange allows malicious actors to redirect codes to an untrusted domain.
Auth Bypass: Generating access tokens without validating the requested scope against client constraints allows clients to escalate privileges beyond their designated permissions.
