Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Attackers could override project context properties stored directly on request objects. Using unique ES6 symbols for context-carrying request variables is necessary to prevent internal property pollution and parameter tampering.
SSRF: Server-side requests to target endpoints are prone to DNS rebinding, local loopback bypasses, and IPv6 AAAA fallback exploits. Robust DNS pinning, parallel DNS lookup validation, and strict CIDR checks are required before establishing any outbound connection.
Auth Bypass: Weak JWT configurations allowed signature algorithm confusion attacks. Algorithms must be explicitly pinned to strong, specific cryptographic types (such as HS256) on all JWT verification calls.
