Recurring patterns

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

CSRF Protection: The FormWizard's POST handler lacked CSRF protection, allowing cross-site request forgery on state-changing form submissions. This is a classic high-impact flaw for multi-step forms.

Timing Attack (MAC comparison): The preview security hash was compared with a non-constant-time string equality, enabling timing side-channel attacks to recover the hash. Low severity but relevant for any security-token verification.
