Recurring patterns

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

Command Injection: Insecure handling of cookie values during SAML authentication can lead to arbitrary shell execution via browser launch arguments when invoking Ferrum::Browser.new. Developers must enforce strict validation patterns to ensure input parameters do not inject malicious command segments.

Insecure Temporary File: Predictable temporary cache directory paths can result in directory collisions or symbolic link attacks. Utilizing non-unique target paths in File.expand_path allows local attackers to pre-create or manipulate cache directories, compromising data integrity.
