Replace detailed error messages with generic ones to prevent leaking internal system information to users. Actual errors are logged for debugging. - OAuth errors: "Authentication failed" instead of err.Error() - Session errors: "Session error" instead of err.Error() - JSON decode errors: "Invalid request body" instead of decode error - Logout errors: "Logout failed" instead of err.Error() Note: Validation errors (like "Invalid date format") are kept as they help users understand what needs to be fixed.

Summary
Security Issue Addressed
Debug Information Disclosure (Low) - Previously, detailed error messages (including internal error details) were returned to users. This could leak sensitive information about the system, libraries used, or internal structure.
