For Bandit I'm marking "Won't fix":
Offending code is:

    LOG.debug('RBAC: Authorizing %(action)s(%(kwargs)s)', {
        'action': action,
        'kwargs': ', '.join(['%s=%s' % (k, kwargs[k]) for k in kwargs])})

There's no indication of what the kwargs are, so without a runtime
integration (tainting) or symbolic execution this is not realistic to
pick up. At the call sites the kwargs are not a literal dict, but rather
values from up the call chain, so not easy to analyse.

It would be great to pick this up, but it's way out of reach for the
engine currently or in reasonable future.

Bug description:
  grep CLEARTEXTPASSWORD keystone.log

  2015-06-16 06:44:39.770 20986 DEBUG keystone.common.controller [-]
  RBAC: Authorizing identity:create_user(user={u'domain_id': u'default',

  Issue code:
  https://github.com/openstack/keystone/blob/master/keystone/common/controller.py#L57

      LOG.debug('RBAC: Authorizing %(action)s(%(kwargs)s)', {
          'action': action,
          'kwargs': ', '.join(['%s=%s' % (k, kwargs[k]) for k in kwargs])})

  Shadow the values of sensitive fields like 'password' by some
  meaningless garbled text like "XXXXX" is one way to fix.

  Well, in addition to this, I think we should never pass the 'password'
  with its original value along the code and save it in any persistence,
  instead we should convert it to a strong hash value as early as
  possible. With the help of a good hash system, we never have to need
  the original value of the password, right?
