Recurring patterns

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

Denial of Service: TcpStream reads lack a full-request timeout, allowing a slowloris attacker to hold connections open indefinitely and exhaust server/client resources.

Denial of Service: Unbounded redirect following can create an infinite loop, consuming CPU and memory and potentially causing resource exhaustion.
