Title:
  Password logging

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Identity (Keystone):
  Fix Released
Status in Python client library for Keystone:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When the log level is set to DEBUG, keystoneclient's full-request
  logging mechanism kicks in, exposing plaintext passwords, etc.

  This bug is mostly out of the scope of Horizon, however Horizon can
  also be more secure in this regard. We should make sure that wherever
  we *are* handling sensitive data we use Django's error report
  filtering mechanisms so they don't appear in tracebacks, etc.
  (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/error-reporting
  /#filtering-error-reports)

  Keystone may also want to look at respecting such annotations in their
  logging mechanism, i.e. if Django were properly annotating these data
  objects, keystoneclient could check for those annotations and properly
  sanitize the log output.

  If not this exact mechanism, then something similar would be wise.

  For the time being, it's also worth documenting in both projects that
  a log level of DEBUG will log passwords in plain text.
