Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Improper Certificate Validation: Misconfiguration or sharing of `tls.Config` across broker connections can lead to race conditions or default states where host verification (SNI) is bypassed, exposing connections to Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks.
Command Injection: Direct string expansion of runner inputs in workflow files allows arbitrary command injection. Inputs like `kafka-version` must always be bound to environment variables.
Weak TLS Configuration: Default TLS settings failing to enforce a secure minimum version (TLS 1.2) allow protocol downgrade attacks, leaving encrypted transport vulnerable to legacy cryptographic exploits.
