Recurring patterns

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

SSRF: Manual parsing of the DOCKER_HOST environment variable allowed incorrect sandbox URL resolution, potentially leading to Server-Side Request Forgery or connecting to unauthorized endpoints. Switching to a standardized parser mitigates this.

Denial of Service: Unbounded sandbox HTTP requests could hang indefinitely, exhausting runtime worker processes and causing complete system denial of service.

Insecure Permissions: Sensitive LLM provider credentials were written to local disk without restrictive permissions, allowing local unauthorized users on the same host to read the configuration file.
