Description Doran Moppert 2017-11-12 21:33:05 EST

It was discovered that with log level set to "DEBUG", ovirt-engine includes
passwords in the log file without masking.

Note that only administrators can change the log level, and only administrators
can access logs. This presents a risk when debug-level logs are shared with
vendors etc to troubleshoot issues.

Upstream patch:
