Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Dominant vulnerability class; many fixes address missing permission checks on services, request-maps, and UI, often with incorrect action names (e.g., CREATE vs UPDATE) or fail-open logic.
Webshell/File Upload RCE: Repeatedly patched for webshell token bypasses, dangerous extensions, image metadata injection, and fail-open validation; CVE-2021-37608 fixed multiple times.
Insecure Deserialization: Multiple whitelist/denylist bypasses (java.rmi, generics markup, primitive arrays) leading to RCE; also XML-RPC and XStream vectors.
