> Key: VFS-277
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-277
> Project: Commons VFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Environment: Solaris 10; Ant 1.7.1; commons-vfs-SNAPSHOT-2.0
> (revision 537717)
> Reporter: Horst Beham
> Attachments: ant-password-leak.diff

>
> 1) Password leaking through FileObject.toString()
> - AbstractSyncTask.java and MkdirTask.java use MessageFormat to create log
> messages, which goes back to FileObject.toString() and returns
> "name.getURI()" containing the password.
> final String message =
> Messages.getString("vfs.tasks/mkdir.create-folder.info", dir);
> log(message);
> - MoveTask.java and SyncTask.java use string concatenation with a FileObject,
> also going back to toString():
> log("Deleting " + srcFile);
> A fix for that was suggested in VFS-169 (and others) to modify
> AbstractFileObject.toString() to use "name.getFriendlyURI()", but it wasn't
> implemented in order to keep the API compatible. For our project I was able
> to change the toString() implementation.
> To keep the API working all calls to Messages.getString(...) that pass in
> FileObject's should then rather pass in fileObject.getName().getFriendlyURI().
> 2) String concatenation with URI strings
> DeleteTask.java concatenates the string representation of the source
> directory's URL in the the line:
> log("Deleting " + filesList + " in the directory " + srcDirUrl)
> To fix this I replaced the block inside the "if" with:
> final FileObject srcDir = resolveFile(srcDirUrl);
> log("Deleting " + filesList + " in the directory " +
> srcDir.getName().getFriendlyURI());
> StringTokenizer tok = new StringTokenizer(filesList, ",
> \t\n\r\f", false);
> while (tok.hasMoreTokens())
> {
> String nextFile = tok.nextToken();
> final FileObject srcFile = srcDir.resolveFile(nextFile);
> srcFile.delete(Selectors.SELECT_ALL);
> }
> 3) Explicit logging of the password URI
> ShowFileTask.java explicitly logs the URI with the password:
> log("Details of " + file.getName().getURI());
