Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Using object reference equality (`!=`) instead of string value equality (`.equals()`) to check the HTTP method bypassed security filters, allowing unauthorized state-changing operations like POST or DELETE to execute under the guise of GET requests.
Auth Bypass: Lack of resource-level and method-level authorization checks in the central API documentation generator allowed unauthorized users to list or view restricted API endpoints.
