Description

DVGA's documented "Log Injection / Spoofing" vulnerability targets the GraphQL operation name field with log-forging payloads (e.g. CRLF injection). No equivalent test exists in GraphQLSecurityTestCase currently.

Research direction

Start with docs/TRACEABILITY.md row 13 and inspect the existing GraphQLSecurityTestCase to understand how DVGA vulnerabilities are exercised. Add coverage for log-injection/spoofing through the GraphQL operation name, including the documented log-forging payload behavior, and confirm the test passes and covers row 13.
