πŸ›‘οΈ Sentinel: [CRITICAL] Fix password truncation and command injection risks in entrypoint

🚨 Severity: CRITICAL
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: Unquoted variable expansion in copyables/entrypoint.sh caused passwords containing spaces to be truncated (e.g., "correct horse battery staple" became "correct"). It also posed a risk of command injection/globbing if usernames contained special characters.
🎯 Impact: Users setting strong passphrases would silently end up with weak passwords (the first word only).
πŸ”§ Fix:

  • Quoted $username and $password variables in adduser calls.
  • Used read -r to prevent backslash interpretation.
    βœ… Verification: Verified with a reproduction script that spaces in passwords are now preserved correctly.

This change fixes a critical security issue where passwords containing spaces would be truncated when creating users. It also prevents globbing issues by quoting variable expansions.

- Quoted `"$username"` and `"$password"` in `adduser` calls.
- Added `-r` flag to `read` commands to preserve backslashes.
- Verified that passphrases with spaces are now correctly handled.
