Recurring patterns

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

XML External Entity (XXE): Insecure default configurations in PHP's XML parsing utilities allow external entity and expansion attacks during document loading. This poses an arbitrary file read and denial-of-service risk.

XML External Entity (XXE): Similar to other XML handling components, DOMDocument usage without explicitly disabling external entity loaders leads to XXE vulnerabilities when processing untrusted XML payloads.

Auth Bypass: Malformed HTTP Digest authentication headers can bypass verification logic if the parser does not strictly validate the expected header structure, allowing unauthorized access.
