### Cloning open-source targets
**Assume permission to clone any open-source project for CWE-407 treatment.**
The path is virtuous: with great power comes great responsibility. Every patch
we produce is a gift back to the ecosystem. Standard approach:
```bash
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/org/repo ~/git/repo
```
Then scan → ticket → patch → unit test → whitepaper → commit. No need to ask
before cloning. If a target is already in ~/git/, scan it directly. Priority
targets not yet cloned: pygame, three.js, Unity (DOTS/ECS packages), SDL3,
libGDX, Bevy, Panda3D, OGRE3D, Bullet Physics, Box2D.
**Credential priority:** `~/.unsandbox/accounts.csv` — use `--account 1` (russ-test) and `--account 0` (portal-playground) for parallel `-j2` runs. No env vars needed.
**Next targets in priority order:** mysql, onos, bird, opendaylight, v8, spidermonkey, bazel, kicad, gnu-octave, varnish, nginx, apache2 — then Un.java and Un.cs --account patch.

### 13.3 Dry Engine (Urho3D fork) — dry-0001 / dry-0002
Dry is a C++ game engine forked from Urho3D. Two CWE-407 defects confirmed in the UI
selection system and the event subscription system.
**dry-0001 — ListView::SetSelections() (CRITICAL)**
`Source/Dry/UI/ListView.cpp:529,556``SetSelections()` contains two back-to-back O(n²)
loops. The first iterates `selections_` (current selection) and calls
`indices.Contains(index)` — a linear scan of the incoming `PODVector<unsigned>`. The
second iterates `indices` and calls `selections_.Contains(index)` — another linear scan.
Both fire on every UI multi-selection change (drag-select, keyboard range-select,
programmatic selection update). At k=2000 selections: ~3,125,750 comparisons per call.
Fix: Build `HashSet<unsigned> indicesSet` from `indices` once before the loops. Add
`HashSet<unsigned> selections_set_` as a shadow index maintained alongside `selections_`.
Both Contains calls become O(1).
**Proof:** 3,125,750 ops → 3,500 ops. **893× op reduction.**
**dry-0002 — Object::UnsubscribeFromAllEventsExcept() (HIGH)**
`Source/Dry/Core/Object.cpp:278` — iterates all event handlers (linked list) and calls
`exceptions.Contains(handler->GetEventType())` where `exceptions` is
`PODVector<StringHash>`. O(n×m) total where n=handler count, m=exceptions size. Fired
during object teardown — common in scene transitions, level unload, object pooling.
Fix: Build `HashSet<StringHash> excSet(exceptions.Begin(), exceptions.End())` once at
function entry. O(m) setup, O(1) per handler → O(n+m) total.
**Proof:** 23,775 ops → 500 ops. **48× op reduction.**
Both: **PATCHED.** Patches at `defects/dry/patch/`. Unit proof: `DryEngineTest` 4/4 PASS.
