Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Denial of Service: Unbounded vector allocations based on untrusted user-supplied request counts and missing sender validation can lead to node memory exhaustion and crash loops.
Auth Bypass: Insecure fallback patterns in JWT signature decoding can allow attackers to bypass authentication when no explicit verification key is configured.
Denial of Service: Deserializing untrusted encoded structures without pre-allocation size checks exposes the decoder to out-of-memory panic vectors.
