Description Jonathan Wakely 2016-02-24 17:10:56 UTC
Every backtrace I submit using abrt has the same shared library, and abrt flags it up as a sensitive word. libxcb-keysyms.so is not a "key" so it's just an annoying false positive that makes me check the "backtrace" and "maps" tabs every time.

Likewise, PAM_KWALLET_LOGIN=/tmp/kwallet_jwakely.socket is not a "login" and should not be flagged in the "environ" tab.

Please filter out these false positives automatically.

Comment 1 Jonathan Wakely 2016-03-23 22:12:14 UTC
Apparently libxcb-keysyms.so.1 just needs to be added to /etc/libreport/ignored_words.conf

Comment 2 Matej Habrnal 2016-04-08 10:41:49 UTC
This commit fixes the issue:

Comment 3 Jonathan Wakely 2016-04-08 12:21:41 UTC
Thanks!

As I noted on github, ignoring "kwallet_jwakely" is probably only useful for me, not every other user of libreport. Ignoring PAM_KWALLET_LOGIN should be sufficient, because it's the string "LOGIN" that caused the problem. The kwallet_jwakely part shouldn't get flagged up anyway.
