CVE-2026-63417
Logging Redactor: PII data in str/repr of non primitive objects was not being redacted
What happened?
Logging Redactor is a Python library designed to redact sensitive data in logs based on regex patterns and / or dictionary keys. Prior to 0.0.7, personally identifiable information returned by custom object __str__ or __repr__ methods is not redacted when such non-primitive objects are logged, causing sensitive values to appear in logs that are expected to mask them. This issue is fixed in version 0.0.7.
Affected software and versions
| Software | Version information | Fixed version |
|---|---|---|
| loggingredactorarmurox | affected: < 0.0.7 | See vendor advisory |
Version information comes from the source record and can include unaffected products and exceptions. Distribution packages may contain backported fixes: an older upstream version alone does not prove a server is affected.
Is it being exploited?
This CVE was not listed in the CISA catalogue at our last retrieval. This does not establish that exploitation is absent.
How to respond
- Confirm the product, installed package version, and any configuration requirements in the vendor advisory.
- Follow the vendor’s remediation or workaround guidance in the references below. Structured fixed-version data is unavailable here; the publisher’s description may include a fix or workaround.
- Restart affected services if required, then verify the running version. Known exploitation may warrant investigation as well as patching.
