3 high-severity fixes in this history; regressions here are high-impact.

Recurring patterns

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

Denial of Service: Infinite recursion on recursive schemas during default value validation can hang the process; fixed by tracking visited schemas, but other recursive validation paths may lack this guard.

Path Traversal: PathLoader resolved references without base path normalization, allowing traversal; fix added normalization but alternate loaders may still be vulnerable.

Path Traversal: ResolveRefWithBase lacked proper base path propagation for local file references; fix passed spec path, but other resolution entry points may miss it.
