Recurring patterns
The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.
Memory Corruption: Out-of-bounds write in DFA gototab table when processing HAT anchor token; a missing bounds check on index allowed corruption.
Buffer Overflow: substr used byte length instead of UTF-8 character length, causing out-of-bounds writes when slicing strings.
Memory Corruption: Regex state transition table array too small for caret (^) handling, leading to out-of-bounds write.
