## Description

dbt-mcp is a Model Context Protocol server for interacting with dbt. Prior to 1.17.1, DbtMCP.call\_tool() in src/dbt\_mcp/mcp/server.py logged the raw arguments dictionary at INFO level before each tool call and at ERROR level on exceptions, and configure\_file\_logging() wrote those records to dbt-mcp.log when DBT\_MCP\_SERVER\_FILE\_LOGGING=true, preserving sensitive sql\_query, vars, and node\_selection values in plaintext without automatic rotation or deletion. This issue is fixed in version 1.17.1.
