+# vagrant-0001: Bundler plugin loader — O(S×P) Array#include? in loop
+
+**Target:** hashicorp/vagrant
+**Severity:** MEDIUM
+**CWE:** CWE-407 (Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity)
+**MOAD:** MOAD-0001 (A Sedimentary Defect)
+**File:** `lib/vagrant/bundler.rb:469-471, 533-534`
+**Language:** Ruby
+**Status:** open
+
+## Description
+
+Vagrant's `Bundler` orchestrates plugin resolution and gem-spec selection on every `vagrant` command run. Two paths walk a list of resolved gem specs and check membership against a plugin/system Array via `Array#include?` (O(P) linear scan):
+
+```ruby
+# bundler.rb:469-471 — pruning the solution to declared plugins
+solution.find_all do |spec|
+  plugins.keys.include?(spec.name)
+end
+
+# bundler.rb:533-534 — adding strict-dependency enforcement specs
+plugin_deps += vagrant_internal_specs.map do |spec|
+  if Vagrant.in_bundler?
+    next if system_plugins.include?(spec.name)
+    next if spec.default_gem?
+  end
+  ...
+end
+```
+
+For S resolved specs and P plugins (plus I internal vagrant specs and S system plugins), per-run cost is O(S×P) and O(I×S). Vagrant ships ~30 internal specs by default; users with many third-party plugins push P into the hundreds.
+
+This runs on **every vagrant command** that touches the plugin path (`vagrant up`, `vagrant ssh`, `vagrant plugin list`, etc.) — slow startup compounds across every developer interaction.
+
+## Root Cause
+
+Both `plugins.keys` and `system_plugins` are plain Ruby Arrays. `Array#include?` is O(N) linear scan with `==` on each entry. Inside the per-spec block, total cost scales as O(S×P).
+
+## Fix
+
+Convert the lookup arrays to Sets once outside the loop. `Set#include?` is O(1) via hash.
+
+```ruby
+# Hoist:
+plugin_name_set = Set.new(plugins.keys)
+
+solution.find_all do |spec|
+  plugin_name_set.include?(spec.name)   # O(1)
+end
+
+# Same treatment for system_plugins:
+system_plugins_set = Set.new(system_plugins)
+
+plugin_deps += vagrant_internal_specs.map do |spec|
+  if Vagrant.in_bundler?
+    next if system_plugins_set.include?(spec.name)   # O(1)
+    next if spec.default_gem?
+  end
+  ...
+end
+```
+
+`require "set"` is already at the top of bundler.rb (line 6). Total cost drops to O(S+P).
+
+## Severity Note
+
+Per-vagrant-command overhead. Impact scales linearly with plugin count × resolved spec count. Negligible for one-plugin setups, measurable for multi-plugin developer environments. Cleanup-grade priority but high-frequency — every developer pays this on every command.
+
+## Complexity Gate
+
+- S=P=500: fixed must complete in <5ms
+- k-scaling 5×: time ratio must be <17.5×

+# Vagrant — CWE-407 Disclosure Brief
+
+**Project:** Vagrant (hashicorp/vagrant)
+**Disclosure date:** 2026-04-25
+**Severity:** MEDIUM
+**Speedup:** 127× measured at S=2000 specs × P=1000 plugins
+**Status:** patch-ready, 1 patch + bench
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+Vagrant runs its `Bundler` plugin resolver on every command — `vagrant up`, `vagrant ssh`, `vagrant plugin list`, every interaction. Two paths in `lib/vagrant/bundler.rb` walk the resolved gem-spec list and check membership against a plugin/system-plugin **Array** via `Array#include?`, an O(P) linear scan per spec. With S resolved specs and P plugins, total per-command cost is O(S×P).
+
+Multi-plugin developer environments pay this on every command. The fix hoists each lookup into a `Set` — `Set#include?` is O(1).
+
+## The Defects
+
+**vagrant-0001 (MOAD-0001 — MEDIUM):** `lib/vagrant/bundler.rb:469-471, 533-534`
+
+```ruby
+# Path 1: prune solution to declared plugins
+solution.find_all do |spec|
+  plugins.keys.include?(spec.name)   # O(P) per spec, O(S*P) total
+end
+
+# Path 2: strict-dependency-enforcement filter
+plugin_deps += vagrant_internal_specs.map do |spec|
+  if Vagrant.in_bundler?
+    next if system_plugins.include?(spec.name)   # O(I) per spec
+    ...
+  end
+end
+```
+
+**Fix:** Build a `Set` once before each loop. `require "set"` already loaded at line 6.
+
+| Benchmark (S specs × P plugins) | defective | fixed | speedup |

+| 200×100                         | 0.44ms    | 0.05ms | 9.0×   |

+# CI/CD Deployment, Build Systems, IaC Testing — Wave 5 Scan
+
+**Survey date:** 2026-04-25
+**Tool:** unmoad (9 active MOAD detectors, HIGH+ severity filter)
+**Scope:** 32 projects across deployment (Spinnaker, fluxcd, Argo Rollouts/Events), modern CI/CD build (Earthly, Dagger, Buck2), container runtime (containerd, crun, skopeo, ko, kaniko, buildah), local k8s clusters (kind, minikube, k3s), IaC + testing (Packer, Vagrant, ansible-lint, Molecule, InSpec, Terratest), contract & mutation testing (Pact, Stryker, mutmut, PIT), security/static analysis (Semgrep, Bandit, gosec), and code-quality stalwarts (Spotbugs, Checkstyle, chart-testing).
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+Wave 5 totals 2,981 HIGH+ findings across 32 projects. Clean-scan honor roll grows by 4 with `kind`, `ko`, `chart-testing`, and `pact-ruby` all returning zero HIGH+ MOAD findings. One flagship patch ships for vagrant.

+| **kind** | Go | local Kubernetes via Docker containers |
+| **ko** | Go | Go-native container image builder |
+| **pact-ruby** | Ruby | contract testing for service interactions |
+
+These four ran clean across our 9 MOAD detectors at HIGH severity. Tight, well-maintained codebases.
+
+## Triage backlog from this wave
+
+1. **clouddriver (Spinnaker) ContextVar/ThreadLocal handling** — 240 M3 hits. Worth a deep MOAD-0003 follow-up; deployment platform at Netflix scale.
+2. **spotbugs UnreadFields detector** — 8 M1 hits. Need to read each — most likely Set.contains false positives, but worth confirming against the actual code paths.
+3. **buck2 dice/versions.rs range.contains** — Rust BTreeSet/range pattern; worth a targeted bench.
+4. **dagger client/drivers/container.go** — slices.Contains on container name list per launch.
+5. **terratest helm/cmd.go additionalArgs scan** — Helm command builder, low impact but clean fix.
+6. **inspec plugin loader** — 4 hits in deprecation/config_file.rb; per-plugin overhead.
+7. **stryker-js directive-bookkeeper allMutatorNames.includes** — JS mutator dispatcher per AST node.
+
+## Method
+
+Same as Wave 3 and Wave 4: shallow clone, `unmoad -s high -f json`, filter test/vendor/docs noise, manual triage of the strongest source-only candidates per project.
