Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Missing enforcement of NTLM sealing flags allows silent downgrade of session security, directly bypassing integrity/confidentiality guarantees.
Auth Byp: Basic auth may be performed when not explicitly requested, enabling scheme confusion and potential credential exposure.
Race Condition: Concurrent slice access during header parsing can lead to data races, causing unpredictable authentication behavior.
