Recurring patterns

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

Use-After-Free: The session layer has a large number of lifetime-management bugs, often involving callbacks firing after object destruction or re-entrant operations during teardown.
HTTP Request Smuggling: Multiple fixes address ambiguous Transfer-Encoding/Content-Length handling and header validation, indicating a persistent risk of parser differentials with upstream/downstream proxies.
Denial of Service: Integer overflows and unbounded queue growth in QPACK decoding can be triggered by malicious header blocks, leading to crashes or memory exhaustion.
