Re: 5.1.7 (build 3446) does NOT mask passwords in logfile
Only passwords in
open
command log record are masked. If you are referring to a "Command-line" record, then indeed it's not masked out. You have to stored the password to a script to have it masked. There are so many ways to pass a password on command-line, that it's would be very difficult to locate it to mask it out. Also note that process command-line parameters is a public information. Any other process on a system can retrieve that. So if you are that concerned about security, do not pass passwords on command-line.
