    Log Message:
    auth: cleanse password packet before releasing TX lock (CID 505204)

    Password authentication serialized secrets into the session's shared TX buffer, then cleansed that buffer only after send_commit released tx_mtx. Another sender could acquire the mutex and reuse the buffer before the cleanse, allowing the old cleanup to corrupt its packet.

    Add a sensitive commit path that scrubs the bounded payload while tx_mtx is still held and before any termination callback. Cover direct, gathered, failure, and oversized-payload paths with focused tests.
