Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Auth Bypass: Multiple fixes target the HWI bridge server's authentication and origin validation, indicating a persistently weak boundary that allowed unauthorized access to sensitive operations and settings.
Auth Bypass: Authentication bypasses in the login/registration flow, including OTP validation, RPC password checks, and node selection, show a history of incomplete authentication logic that could allow unauthorized access.
Auth Bypass: Fixes around login ordering, selfcheck, and password hashing indicate that the main controller's authentication state was historically fragile, allowing bypasses through incorrect request handling.
