Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Code Injection: Attackers can bypass the string-escaping logic by passing spoofed URL or RegExp objects that return unexpected non-string values or contain malicious executable flags, leading to arbitrary code execution upon evaluation.
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Improperly sanitized functions, regex literals, or URLs printed directly using `.toString()` or unescaped placeholders can be manipulated to inject closing HTML script tags or bypass standard sanitizers.
