To fix the problem, we need to ensure that sensitive information such as passwords is never logged, even if the sanitization function fails. One way to achieve this is to avoid logging the command entirely or to log only non-sensitive parts of the command. We can modify the code to log a generic message indicating that a command is being executed without including the actual command details.

To fix the problem, we need to ensure that sensitive information such as passwords is not logged. We can achieve this by sanitizing the command before logging it. Specifically, we can replace the sensitive parts of the command with placeholders before logging.
