Recurring patterns

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

Path Traversal: Recurring arbitrary file write/read via archive entries and symlinks escaping extraction root; multiple independent fixes in different components indicate the pattern was missed repeatedly.
Denial of Service: Multiple decompression bombs, large archives, and missing size limits across many extractors; also hangs from locked databases and missing cancellation checks.
Supply Chain Compromise: Repository URL placeholder injection and missing malicious package detections allow dependency confusion or compromised dependencies to go undetected.
