-------------------------------------

Good suggestion but I wonder if some callers /expect/ the password to be there... might be tricky to check because you'd need to see if a FileName is used in a String expression.

Do you know of other places where the password shows up in the log?

----------------------------------------

I would rather be defensive in that sensitive case and make sure that clear type password isn't logged inadvertently. But you're right that might break somehow the behavior of the API.

Antonin Stefanutti commented on VFS-430:
----------------------------------------

I don't know any other places. I'll let you know if I stumble upon new places during my development tests.

One suggestion would be to update the {{FileName.toString()}} implementation by relying on the {{FileName.getFriendlyURI()}}. That would prevent the logging of clear text password inadvertently.
