Recurring patterns

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

Sandbox Escape: Multiple distinct escape vectors in JS require, file read sandbox, and headless browser actions, often gated by opt-in flags that can be missed on alternate paths.

Path Traversal: Recurring canonical path containment failures across payload loading, template extraction, and filesystem trust boundaries, requiring consistent canonicalization and prefix checks.

Signature Bypass / Integrity: Signature verification is bypassable via cache poisoning, DAST-specific loading branches, and malformed signature placement, requiring content-digest binding and strict parsing.
