Potential fix for https://github.com/FabienDostieIT/CSV_Data_Validator/security/code-scanning/6
To fix the issue, we will ensure that the format string does not directly interpolate the untrusted
csvRowNumvalue. Instead, we will use a%sspecifier in the format string and passcsvRowNumas a separate argument toconsole.error. This approach prevents any unintended format string injection, as the value will be treated as a string literal.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
