To fix the problem, we need to sanitize the request.Mobile value before logging it. This can be done by removing any new line characters from the request.Mobile string. We will use the String.Replace method to ensure that no line endings are present in the user input. This will prevent any potential log forging or injection attacks.

To fix the problem, we need to sanitize the user input before logging it. Since the log entries are plain text, we should remove any newline characters from the serialized JSON string to prevent log forging. This can be achieved using the
String.Replacemethod to replace newline characters with an empty string.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
