Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Incomplete path decoding, normalization, and prefix validation in RouteLocator allows attackers to manipulate routing paths to bypass gateway security filters and access unauthorized endpoints.
Information Disclosure: Failure to isolate and filter sensitive proxy headers (e.g. Cookie, Set-Cookie, and Authorization) by default can leak administrative and user session credentials downstream to untrusted services.
Session Fixation: Automatic cookie management enabled in shared Ribbon load-balancing HTTP clients allows cookies and session state to spill across requests from different users.
