high Legacy security path_traversal conf 0.80 [SEC013] Path Traversal — User Input in File Path: User-controlled input used in file path without sanitization. Allows reading arbitrary files.
Use os.path.realpath() and verify the path starts with your expected base directory. Use secure_filename() for uploads.

high Legacy software prototype_pollution conf 1.00 [SEC033] Prototype Pollution — unfiltered merge of user object: Merging user-controlled object into a target without filtering `__proto__`/`constructor`/`prototype` keys lets attackers inject properties onto Object.prototype, affecting every object in the process. CWE-1321. Real-world: CVE-2019-10744 (lodash), CVE-2021-23337 (lodash.set), CVE-2023-26136 (tough-cookie).
Sanitize keys BEFORE merge: function sanitize(obj) { delete obj.__proto__; delete obj.constructor; delete obj.prototype; return obj; } Or use Object.create(null) for the target. Or use Map() for user-key-indexed data. Upgrade lodash >= 4.17.21 for partial mitigation.

medium Legacy security auth conf 0.92 [AUC001] No Repobility access matrix policy found: The repository uses web/API frameworks but does not define .repobility/access.yml or equivalent authorization documentation.
