Bug ID: 55953
Summary: Create maintenance script that backs up everything but
the tables and fields containing sensitive data
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Maintenance scripts
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
dumpBackup.php apparently dumps just the revisions and log events. There should
be a script that will dump everything except the tables and fields containing
sensitive data (i.e. stuff listed at
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Database_fields_containing_sensitive_data
). There should be new configuration settings, $wgSensitiveFields and
$wgSensitiveTables, whose default values are set in DefaultSettings.php.
Extensions, e.g. CheckUser, can add fields and tables to these arrays. The
backup dumper will exclude those fields and tables from the backups.
