Potential fix for https://github.com/deriv-com/deriv-api-docs/security/code-scanning/84
To fix the issue, the untrusted
entry_tick
value should be sanitized before being logged. Specifically, newline characters (\n
and\r
) should be removed from the value to prevent log injection. This can be achieved usingString.prototype.replace
to ensure that the logged value is safe.The fix involves modifying the code on line 58 to sanitize
entry_spot
before logging it. This ensures that any malicious input from the WebSocket message cannot manipulate the log output.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
