Lorrin Nelson commented on CAMEL-3099: -------------------------------------- Hi Hadrian, thanks for giving this prompt attention. I think it is better to censor the values of the secret fields rather than strip them completely. When you're debugging you often want to know what fields were supplied. Stripping them completely will create confusion. > passwords and other private data contained in URIs should not be logged in > plaintext > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CAMEL-3099 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-3099 > Project: Apache Camel > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: camel-core > Reporter: Lorrin Nelson > Assignee: Hadrian Zbarcea > Priority: Minor > Attachments: > 0001-Reduce-risk-of-showing-passwords-in-URIs-by-adding-c.patch > > > URIs with sensitive data are common and that URIs are frequently logged.

Obviously this isn't always the right thing to do in every > situation, but it seems appropriate for many endpoints. Any for which it is > not appropriate could override toString. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
