When constructing commands that will be executed, always sanitize input values to prevent command injection vulnerabilities. Never directly substitute user-supplied or externally-sourced data into command strings without proper validation and sanitization.

Unsafe pattern (vulnerable to injection):

command := strings.Replace(proxyCommand, "%h", host, -1)
// Executing this command could be dangerous if 'host' contains malicious characters

Safer alternatives:

1. Validate inputs against strict patterns before use

   if !validHostnamePattern.MatchString(host) {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("Invalid hostname format: %s", host)
   }
   

2. Use dedicated libraries/APIs that handle command arguments safely

   cmd := exec.Command(proxyCommand, host, port)
   // Arguments are properly escaped by the exec package
   

3. If string interpolation is necessary, consider using a dedicated escaping function

   escapedHost := shellEscape(host)
   command := strings.Replace(proxyCommand, "%h", escapedHost, -1)
   

This practice helps protect against attackers who might craft malicious input to execute unauthorized commands on your system.
