AutoFix: Weak random password generation fallback
Category: security
Severity: medium
Issue
If Docker is not available or the Python container fails, the Fernet key generation falls back to 'GENERATE_ME' which is a static, predictable value. This would result in completely broken encryption where all data could be easily decrypted by anyone knowing this default key.
Fix
Replaces the insecure fallback 'GENERATE_ME' with proper error handling that fails fast and provides clear instructions for manual key generation. This prevents the script from continuing with a predictable encryption key that would compromise all encrypted data.
