Original Pull Request: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/pull/5948

State: closed
Merged: Yes

Summary

This PR fixes a security issue where sensitive data (private keys, tokens, stack traces) could be leaked in error logs.

Changes

  • app-gocardless.js: Replaced inspect(error, { depth: null }) with error.message to prevent logging full error objects with sensitive data
  • handle-error.js: Applied same fix to error handler
  • integration-bank.js: Removed debug logging that exposed full account and transaction details
  • app-simplefin.js: Removed logging of SimpleFIN access keys
  • Removed unused inspect imports

Security Impact

Previously, error logging could expose:

  • Private keys and authentication tokens in stack traces
  • Full SimpleFIN access keys
  • Complete account and transaction data

Now, only safe error messages are logged while maintaining debugging capability.

Testing

  • Existing tests should continue to pass
  • Error handling behavior remains unchanged, only logging is modified
