Gary D. Gregory commented on LANG-1755:
---------------------------------------
But it should be hidden IMO, otherwise you're showing where the secret is
located, which in itself could be considered a problem. You're basically
putting a target on that class. Maybe people will then look for that class
specifically in serialized payloads and proxy, who knows.
> New Annotation to support masking of PII data
> ---------------------------------------------

> Key: LANG-1755
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1755
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: lang.*
> Reporter: Mukul Bindal
> Priority: Minor
> Original Estimate: 2,016h
> Remaining Estimate: 2,016h
>
> I want to add a new feature in Apache commons lang.
> Create a new Annotation support such that a POJO class annotated with
> annotation @PIIContent will mask the instance variables annotated with
> @PIIValue in the toString() method of the annotated class.
> This feature is useful nowadays as PII masking is required in logging.
> I want to keep it in Apache commons lang library as it deals with String data.
> <More description to be added. I will add a proper description with examples
> and use case.>
