Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Path Traversal: User-controlled page parameter flows directly into res.render, enabling arbitrary file reads and module loading; fixed by replacing parameterized route with explicit allowlist.
NoSQL Injection: Raw user input concatenated into a $where query allows injection; fixed by parsing to integer before use.
Denial of Service: Writing an undefined response body causes a TypeError crash; fixed by adding a null check before res.write.
