Description

I just attempted to download frequencies from RFinder. The attempt failed. In investigating, I discovered my password stored in plain text in the debug.log file.

Hey Joe,

do the log entries look like they were created by this code in rfinder.py ?

@def fetch_data(self, user, pw, coords, radius):
    """Fetches the data for a set of parameters"""
    LOG.debug(user)
    LOG.debug(pw)@

Most definitely. In fact (should have included this), the entries are:

[date/time] chirp.drivers.rfinder - DEBUG:
[date/time] chirp.drivers.rfinder - DEBUG:

in the mod I was preparing, I would have left some trace of information in the log:

@

  • LOG.debug("user id: {userid}".format(userid=user))
  • LOG.debug("password: a password of lenght {pwlen} was used"
  • .format(pwlen=len(pw)))@
