Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Validation flaws in the permission syncing mechanism allow existing permissions to be completely detached if a non-existent permission is passed, leading to unauthorized state changes or accidental privilege revocation.
Auth Bypass: Over-reliance on mutable workflow trigger actor variables rather than immutable pull-request properties can permit unprivileged actors to trigger sensitive automated actions.
Auth Bypass: Failing to invalidate the wildcard permission cache upon role revocation allows users to retain and exercise permissions they should no longer possess.
