Recurring patterns

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

Path Traversal: A path.Join sink allowed '..' segments to escape the configured Vault mount, granting unauthorized access to other Vault paths. The fix added a prefix check after join, but sibling path constructions may lack it.

Path Traversal: The same traversal class recurred in a different Vault component: keyIDs could escape the intended engine/operation path via the Write sink. A prefix validation was added, but the pattern suggests systemic risk in Vault path handling.

Secret Leak: A hardcoded Codecov upload token was committed, exposing the coverage service to unauthorized access. This indicates a failure to enforce secret hygiene in CI/CD configuration.
