Highlights
Denial of Service: 8 prior fixes. Scrutinize any change in this area.
dependency): most-fixed (7 issues). Treat as high-risk during review.
37 high-severity fixes in this history; regressions here are high-impact.
Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Multiple independent auth bypasses across credential handling and RPC fencing, indicating systemic gaps in token validation and leader identity checks.
Denial of Service: Recurring DoS via decompression, deserialization, and logging, mostly fixed by dependency upgrades; PermanentBlobCache shows a non-dependency resource exhaustion path.
Deserialization: Multiple readObject/Class.forName sinks across different components, all fixed by changing classloader or class-name resolution, indicating a pervasive trust issue with untrusted serialized data.
