Recurring patterns

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

Spoofing: Client IP is derived from HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IPV6 header without validation, allowing spoofed source addresses for logging or rate limiting.

Information Disclosure: SQLite database file was stored in a web-accessible directory, enabling direct download of sensitive telemetry data.

Reflected XSS: The id parameter from $_GET is echoed without encoding, allowing script injection in error responses.
