Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
SSRF: Multiple fixes target the OpenAPI proxy, indicating a persistent SSRF risk. Initial fixes added token/origin verification and host allowlists, but the surface remains complex and prone to incomplete validation.
Signature Verification Bypass: The image route has had multiple signature bypass fixes, showing a recurring weakness in how signature versions and hosts are validated. Incomplete validation can allow attackers to forge signatures and redirect to arbitrary URLs.
Open Redirect: The image route's redirect behavior has been a repeated source of open redirect vulnerabilities, related to signature version and host binding. This is a high-risk surface because it can be used for phishing.
