Highlights

14 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 fixes address pipeline-injected git flags and checkout override modes that bypass security controls; these are high-impact because they directly undermine job isolation.
Information Disclosure: Credential leakage via OTLP exporter headers and env spoofing is a recurring high-severity issue, exposing control-plane secrets to job processes.
Auth Bypass: Commit verification could be bypassed via empty value; defaulting to strict mode closes a path for unauthorized commits.
