Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Multiple fixes address stale authentication persisting past token expiry or after user identity changes, indicating a systemic weakness in refresh propagation across transport, hub, and circuit layers.
Auth Bypass: Passkey sign-in and registration flows lacked checks for expired sessions and reauthentication, allowing bypass or session hijacking escalation.
Auth Bypass: Registration confirmation was not fully honored, allowing unauthorized access; fixed by using CanSignInAsync to respect all confirmation requirements.
