Recurring patterns

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

Type Confusion: Unsafe downcasting and IsA trait implementations allowed safe code to perform unchecked type conversions, leading to type confusion and memory unsafety.

Memory Corruption: Unsafe casts between class and interface types, and transmuting values of incompatible types, could corrupt memory.

Use-After-Free: A race condition allowed senders to access a source during finalization, causing use-after-free and memory corruption.
