Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Multiple fixes address incorrect permission checks (bot vs author) and check bypasses in the command execution path, indicating a systemic weakness in authorization enforcement.

Auth Bypass: Repeated fixes to permission overwrite ordering and aggregation show a fragile permission resolution algorithm that allowed unauthorized access through incorrect role/member overwrite handling.

Auth Bypass: Context menu and child command guild scoping flaws could allow commands to run in unintended guilds, bypassing intended authorization boundaries.
