  "conclusion": "After testing 5 distinct variants against the fixed version (v1.3.2), no bypass was found. The fix uses defense-in-depth with Object.create(null) and explicit key guards, covering all tested entry points and key manipulation strategies. The fix is comprehensive for this attack vector."
