Two things, and a finding that says neither fixes the pairs that prompted them.
The settings table was Flask/FastAPI-shaped (CORS, set_cookie, app.run) while
the corpus contains aiohttp and Django applications, so three config_secrets
pairs contained no modelled security setting at all. Added aiohttp's
session_setup and cookie storages and Django's SECURE_* / DEBUG settings: 8
calls to 24.
And config_secrets spans three abstractions while only one was wired -- a
permissive setting VALUE. Weak algorithm CHOICE (CWE-326/327) is a different
thing: the danger is the algorithm NAMED, not a flag left open. Its data has
been sitting on the sink facts as `weak_literals` since before this feature and
nothing read it. Both abstractions read the same literal, so the arm is small:
hashlib.new("md5") is now entailed and hashlib.new("sha256") is not.
The finding: the three silent config pairs are CORPUS DEFECTS, not model gaps.
Measured similarity 23%, 45% and 53% -- dsvpwa-dsvpwa-main pairs `def main()`
against `def run(self, handler)`, a different function entirely. No settings
table can make those split, and it is worth saying so rather than letting the
work imply otherwise. The table gap was real and worth closing on its own
merits; it just is not why those pairs are silent.
734 passing, mypy/ruff clean, gates byte-identical.

A configuration bug has no flow to follow and no guard to dominate.
CORS(app, origins="*") is dangerous because of the value it is SET TO, so the
arbiter evaluates the setting's arguments against the closed permissive set in
the obligation facts -- the third form beside taint reachability and guard
dominance, and the one Req 6.3 names.
ENTAILED a security setting is passed a literal in the permissive set
CORROBORATED the argument is computed, so constant abstraction cannot decide
it -- that residual is the judge's, never silently "safe"
(none) every literal is outside the set, or the call is not a setting
Two Joern node-shape bugs, both found by running it and both of the same class
as group 2's receiver bug -- the graph's indexing is not what the source text
suggests:
* a keyword argument (`origins="*"`) is an assignment-shaped node, so
isLiteral is false on the argument itself and the literal sits in its
subtree; literals are collected from the argument's AST now.
* Joern indexes the receiver at 0, positional arguments from 1, and NAMED
arguments at -1. Settings are configured overwhelmingly by keyword, so
argumentIndexGt(0) -- correct when counting arity for the taint shape test
-- dropped exactly the arguments that matter and every keyword-configured
setting read as "computed".
Live, deterministic, zero model calls:
create_app -> model_entailed CORS(app, origins = "*"): permissive literal "*"
safe_app -> no finding (origins = "https://app.example")
All three arbiter forms now work against a real CPG: taint reachability for the
flow families, guard dominance for absence, constant abstraction for config.
