Sensitive information in debug logs
|
||||||
|
===================================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Debug logs may contain information that certain users may consider sensitive
|
||||||
|
although generally it's okay to share debuglogs publicly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Information which could be deemed sensitive:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- hostname of the host
|
||||||
|
- names of VMs and other objects
|
||||||
|
- paths to disk images
|
||||||
|
- IP addresses of guests and the host
|
||||||
|
- hostnames/IP addresses of disks accessed via network
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Libvirt's debug logs only ever have passwords and disk encryption secrets in
|
||||||
|
encrypted form without the key being part of the log. There's one notable
|
||||||
|
exception, that ``VNC/SPICE`` passwords can be found in the logs.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In case you decide to mask information you consider sensitive from the posted
|
||||||
|
debug logs, make sure that the masking doesn't introduce ambiguity.
