Recurring patterns

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

Path Traversal: Three separate fixes indicate repeated weaknesses in file upload path validation, allowing writes outside intended directories.
Auth Bypass: SSL client authentication logic was flawed, enabling unauthorized access; multiple fixes in this component show configuration complexity.
Sandbox Escape: System.exit calls could terminate the server; the fix made prevention configurable, introducing potential bypass if misconfigured.
