Recurring patterns

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

Insecure Transport: Insecure Transport occurred when creating ClientHttpRequestFactory instances for Apache HTTP Components, Netty, and OkHttp. Without explicit SSL/TLS trust-store configuration support, these clients failed to properly validate Vault server certificates, exposing sensitive credentials to potential Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks.
