Recurring patterns

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

Deserialization of Untrusted Data: Unsafe invocation of reflected methods during deserialization within MethodInvokeTypeProvider could allow remote code execution. Security controls must ensure lazy invocation and strict return-type verification during deserialization.
XXE: XML parser configurations that do not explicitly disable external entity resolution are vulnerable to XXE. Any component initializing an XMLInputFactory must enforce secure properties by default.
Reflected XSS: Reflected XSS can occur when raw HTTP parameters, such as requested locales or dynamically rendered template values, are processed without strict character validation or output encoding.
