-------------------------------------
Summary: Replications which fail to start dump creds into the logs
Key: COUCHDB-2949
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2949
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Replication
Reporter: Mike Wallace
If a replication fails to start then the `#rep` record is logged [1]. This can
contain credentials in either the source or target `#httpdb` records, either in
urls or the authorization header.
This can be reproduced by posting a replication document which specifies a
replication from a database that doesn't exist and following the logs, e.g.:
https://gist.github.com/mikewallace1979/757a48bce6b84fbf080c
Note that the creds are exposed both when they are in the source/target url or
in the `Authorization` header.
