A review of 114 studies creates taxonomies for code and data quality issues, formalizes 18 propagation mechanisms from training data defects to LLM-generated code defects, and synthesizes detection and mitigation techniques.

Post-release defects concentrate in older, frequently modified high-churn components and require longer and more complex fixes than pre-release defects.
A PPO agent with hybrid actions and test-driven rewards optimizes prompts for code LLMs, raising strict Pass@1 scores on MBPP+, HumanEval+, and APPS over prior methods.
Locally deployed LLMs achieve 43-45% accuracy on Python bug detection but frequently produce only partial identifications of problematic code regions.
