> Hi Thomas,
> I noticed that setting SLF4J log level {*}org.apache.sshd.*=finest{*}, the 
> password of an SSH client authenticating to SSHD server is logged on SSHD 
> server in "clear".
> This could result in a privacy/security issues at companies with strict 
> security rules.
>  
> Evidence of this behavior is in the following trace :

> logs?
> 3. Other considerations ?

> Than you for your collaboration.
