Recurring patterns

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

Denial of Service: Concurrent incoming client connection streams can trigger redundant database queries, leading to database resource exhaustion. Developers must use coalescing patterns like singleflight for shared resource queries.
Path Traversal: Archive extraction can traverse outside the target directory if path prefix verification is bypassed. Safe path joins or prefix checks must guard all decompression sinks.
Denial of Service: Lack of ReadHeaderTimeout makes the web server susceptible to connection-exhaustion/slowloris DoS attacks. All HTTP/HTTPS listeners must enforce explicit header timeouts.
