Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Memory Corruption: Vendored C parsing library directly exposed to untrusted database files; upstream fixes address integer overflow, bounds checking, and use-after-free in mmdb_read/mmdb_lookup.
Supply Chain Attack: Unpinned GitHub Actions references allow tag mutation to inject malicious code into CI pipelines.
Privilege Escalation: Default GITHUB_TOKEN permissions grant excessive write scope; empty permission blocks reduce blast radius of compromised workflows.
