Potential fix for https://github.com/mackowski/10xGitHubPolicies/security/code-scanning/12
To fix this problem, we need to ensure that user-supplied data (
body) written to logs does not contain log-forging characters such as newlines or carriage returns (\n,\r). This can be achieved by removing them or replacing them with safe representations. Implement a helper method (e.g.,SanitizeForLog) that strips out these characters or replaces them with escaped versions, and use this method when logging the payload. The change should be made on line 127 inside the file10xGitHubPolicies.App/Controllers/WebhookController.cs, replacingbodywithSanitizeForLog(body). IfSanitizeForLogdoes not already handle multiline strings robustly, its implementation should be updated as necessary to sanitize arbitrary user-supplied strings.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix.
