+## [2.4.75] — 2026-09-17
+
+### Fixed — detection FP/FN remediation (Hackbot Arena benchmark-driven)
+
+Four fixes driven by the 30-lab detection benchmark (TP/FP/FN):
+
+1. **`detectRouteAuthz` decorator/middleware auth + public-route skip.**
+   Recognizes `require_auth` / `auth_required` / `jwt_required` / `token_required` /
+   `verify_token` / `current_user` / `before_request` as auth enforcement; skips
+   public-by-design routes (register/login/health/status/static/docs/...). Also
+   fixed a cross-framework FP: the express detector was matching Flask
+   `@app.get/post` decorators (no `@` exclusion) — added `(?<!@)` and expanded the
+   flask entry to `@app.(route|get|post|put|delete|patch)`. `missing_authz` FP
+   dropped ~23 → 19 labs.
+2. **Node/Python sinks.** Added `subprocess.run/call/Popen/check_output`,
+   `os.system/popen`, `child_process.exec/spawn/execSync`, `sqlx::query(&format!`,
+   `sequelize.query`, `knex.raw`, `requests.get/post/put`, `urllib.request.urlopen`,
+   `httpx.get`, `render_template_string`/`Template` to the sink scanner — so Python
+   command injection (labs24), SSRF (labs07/10/15), and Node SQLi now register.
+3. **Two new detectors.** `jwt_alg_confusion` (verifier accepting RS256 + HS256
+   with public-key HMAC — CWE-347, caught labs03) and `cache_deception`
+   (cookie-less static cache key over a session-authenticated backend — CWE-525,
+   caught labs01). Also enhanced `ssti` to catch Liquid `Template(var)` from stored
+   input (labs23). Both wired through cwe_map/patterns/severity/synonyms/harness.
+4. **`hardcoded_secret` flag suppression.** Suppresses `FLAG{...}` literals, the
+   bare `FLAG` env marker, and quoted-prefix concatenations (`'usr_' + random`) so
+   seeded CTF flags and runtime-built values aren't reported as CWE-798.
