Venkat Ranganathan commented on OOZIE-2244:
-------------------------------------------

IMO We probably should finish this patch as it is  this for Sqoop action where 
it is more pronounced currently and have a fuller approach that covers all 
actions 

> Oozie should mask passwords in the logs when logging command arguments

> Users have complained that oozie logging the password related argument values 
> in the launcher log is a security hole and want it to be masked in the 
> output.   Even password aliases in keystore are considered to be a security 
> hole.
> The fix is to mask any argument values if option name contains the string 
> password (which is true for Sqoop).   We do this in multiple places, in Sqoop 
> main, in Launcher Mapper, in JavaMain as well.
