Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: The server previously suffered from a cross-database authorization bypass where collection and database operations were executed without explicitly scoping them to the active database name, leading to unauthorized data exposure across tenants.
Auth Bypass: Critical API controller endpoints, such as the Milvus connection handler, were left completely unprotected without the proper JSON Web Token authentication guard decorator.
Auth Bypass: A race condition existed during role modifications where permission revocations were not properly awaited, allowing a windows of opportunity to bypass proper access controls during privilege updates.
