Recurring patterns

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

Reflected XSS: Unvalidated URL parameters including error, error_description, and error_uri are executed directly in the browser's DOM during OAuth2 redirect flows. This allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the user's session.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Vulnerabilities in the main Swagger UI rendering engine could allow JavaScript execution via modified API definitions or malicious configurations parsed by the bundle's evaluator.

XSS: The inclusion of outdated Swagger UI static dependencies introduces well-known, pre-existing Client-Side XSS and OAuth2 callback-handling security flaws.
