Recurring patterns

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

Sandbox Escape: Insecure Windows sandbox environments and misconfigured DACL rules allowed sandboxed processes to modify sensitive repositories or read restricted files outside the workspace root.
Auth Bypass: Parsing errors and uninspected AST pipelines in PowerShell or shell-command analyzers allowed command safety validation checks to be bypassed, executing dangerous shell commands without approval.
Path Traversal: Improper resolution and lack of canonicalization checks on absolute and relative paths allowed directory traversal across heterogeneous host and executor filesystems.
