Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Folder-level permissions are frequently bypassed or incorrectly applied due to identity type mismatches (e.g., mistreating API tokens or non-admin identities) and caching issues. This allows unauthorized actions on sensitive folder configurations.
Auth Bypass: Sharing cached content models and groups across different user identities leads to critical permission bypasses, where restricted users gain visibility into CMS structures they do not own.
Information Disclosure: Failing to strip the raw password property before database persistence of security user records exposes plaintext passwords inside database stores.
