Description Jiri Belka 2013-10-18 12:12:25 UTC 
Description of problem:

SECURITY - notifier.log contains value of MAIL_PASSWORD if not empty! This file is world-readable!

# su -s /bin/sh nobody -c 'grep -q MAIL_PASSWORD /var/log/ovirt-engine/notifier/notifier.log && echo found_pattern'
found_pattern

-%-
# grep MAIL_PASS /etc/ovirt-engine/notifier/notifier.conf                                                                                      
MAIL_PASSWORD=foobar

# grep MAIL_PASS /var/log/ovirt-engine/notifier/notifier.log | tail -n1
2013-10-18 13:59:42,048 INFO  [org.ovirt.engine.core.utils.LocalConfig] Value of property "MAIL_PASSWORD" is "foobar".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
is19

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. MAIL_ENABLE_SSL=true, MAIL_SERVER=$smtp_server, MAIL_USER=$auth-name, MAIL_PASSWORD=$auth-password defined in /etc/ovirt-engine/notifier/notifier.conf
2. restart ovirt-engine-notifier
3. see MAIL_PASSWORD in notifier.log

Actual results:
password define in conf file is visible plaintext in log file!

Expected results:

Comment 1 Mooli Tayer 2013-10-21 12:27:56 UTC 
There is a configuration key called SENSITIVE_KEYS which is a comma separated list of hidden configuration keys. 

patch proposed upstream adding MAIL_PASSWORD to ovirt-engine-notifier.conf.
