Re: [I] [MCHECKSTYLE-308] Include config in checkstyle site results [maven-checkstyle-plugin]

matinh commented on issue #605:
URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-checkstyle-plugin/issues/605#issuecomment-4294976244

   This issue is old but still valid.
   
   One addition, though: as mentioned in the original description, the report may contain a local path lile `D:\Rickys\Java\checkstyleWorkspaceEclipse\contribution\checkstyle-tester\my_check.xml`. This exposes information from the developers build-system, which is a (minor?) security issue. If a rulefile is reffered to at all, it should IMHO not contain the absolute path but only the name. The complete path won't help anyone else beside a potential attacker.
