Recurring patterns

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

Auth Bypass: Weak authorization checks and incomplete gating during registration and administration tasks have allowed bypasses. Decorators like admin_required, robust email verification gates, and secure session configurations are needed to secure these routes.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Unescaped interpolation of user content and unsafe DOM manipulation (using innerHTML) in message lists previously allowed arbitrary script execution via crafted message bodies and link previews.

Auth Bypass: The webhook processing logic for the Paystack payment gateway was integrated without signature validation, which could allow arbitrary clients to trigger premium upgrades without authorization.
