Description Tim Petersen

2013-04-15 08:41:41 CEST

The listener.log logs the plain password of the binddn when using debug level 4 - as this is already hidden for another debug message, this should be adjusted:

"15.04.13 02:01:25.226  LISTENER    ( INFO    ) : setting data for all handlers: key=bindpw  value=<PLAIN PASSWORD>"
"15.04.13 02:01:25.226  LISTENER    ( INFO    ) : replication: listener passed key="bindpw" value="<HIDDEN>""

(In reply to Tim Petersen from comment #0)
The first message is from the listener, while the second message is from the replication module.
The listener has been changed to hide "bindpw" as well:
# grep bindpw /var/log/univention/listener.log 
25.06.13 09:17:55.690  LISTENER    ( INFO    ) : setting data for all handlers: key=bindpw  value=<HIDDEN>
25.06.13 09:17:55.690  LISTENER    ( INFO    ) : pkgdb-watch: listener passed key="bindpw" value="<HIDDEN>"
