Recurring patterns

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

Permission Bypass: Multiple operations (open, read, write, unlink, rename, mkdir) historically lacked proper permission checks, allowing unauthorized file access or modification.
Permission Bypass: chmod, chown, and chgrp allowed permission changes without verifying that the current user owns the file, enabling privilege escalation.
Permission Bypass: unlink() incorrectly checked file writability instead of parent directory writability, allowing deletion of files in read-only directories.
