Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Insecure Randomness: Using the standard 'random' module for password generation produces predictable sequences, enabling attackers to compromise generated credentials. Cryptographically secure modules like 'secrets' must be used for any security-sensitive randomness.
