Recurring patterns

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

Path Traversal: Windows-specific backslash normalization failures allowed attackers to bypass template root directory restrictions and read arbitrary host files via crafted URIs. This is tracked under CVE-2026-41205.

Path Traversal: Inconsistent slash-stripping behaviors (e.g., handling of double-slash prefixes) allowed attackers to bypass path validation logic within the TemplateLookup subsystem.
