Recurring patterns

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

Sandbox Escape: Multiple distinct escape vectors: goja require() file access, krbforge arbitrary file writes, payload file loading, and tengo script module imports. Each required a separate fix, indicating a broad attack surface in the JS/sandbox layer.

Code Execution: Unsigned JavaScript templates can lead to arbitrary code execution. The DAST loading path was a bypass for the unsigned code-template guard, and execution-time verification was missing.

SSRF: Multiple outbound network paths (JS HTTP client, LDAP dial, raw HTTP absolute targets, proxy config) lacked host/network policy enforcement, allowing requests to restricted hosts.
