Recurring patterns

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

Authentication Bypass: Legacy authentication password hashing used an unspecified character set, causing non-ASCII passwords to hash inconsistently, enabling bypass or failure.

Authentication Bypass: SRP authentication computed SHA-1 hashes without stripping leading zero bytes, causing valid credentials to be rejected or potentially bypassed.

Privilege Escalation: GitHub Actions workflows ran with default permissions, allowing pull request triggers to escalate privileges and modify repository resources.
