Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Attackers could bypass critical firewall inspection logic entirely by forcing a nil or empty request context, which failed to correctly fall back to Goroutine Local Storage verification. Ensure context evaluations always verify GLS fallback mechanisms to prevent context-stripping evasions.

SQL Injection: Malicious actors can bypass WAF detection by crafting structurally malformed SQL queries that fail tokenization parsing but still execute downstream. Strict blocking of queries that fail tokenizer parsing must be enforced at the parsing boundary.

Path Traversal: Detection filters are susceptible to bypasses on case-insensitive filesystems if the input normalization does not apply case-insensitive comparison prior to path validation. Future path analysis utilities must explicitly normalize input casing.
