Potential fix for https://github.com/krishnprakash/cloudflare-docs/security/code-scanning/3

To fix the problem, we need to avoid logging the client_secret in clear text. Instead, we can log a message indicating that the service token was created without including the sensitive information. This way, we maintain the functionality of informing the user that the token was created while ensuring that sensitive data is not exposed.

We will modify the print statement on line 150 to exclude the client_secret. We will also add a note to the user to save the secrets without logging them.

Clear-text logging of sensitive information

This expression logs [sensitive data (secret)](1) as clear text.

To fix the problem, we need to ensure that sensitive information such as client_id and client_secret is not logged in clear text. Instead, we can log a generic message indicating that a service token was created without including the sensitive details. This way, we maintain the functionality of informing the user about the creation of the service token without exposing sensitive information.

We will modify the code in public/cloudflare-one/static/authenticated-doh.py to remove the sensitive information from the log message on line 149.
