Hide sensitive information in logs
we are using basic msi project that creates an exe file. we are using deferred custom action and customactiondata to pass the data to csharp customaction. we need to hide password into the log file and we have tried following ways, (we also looked into available solutions and by which able to hide only few instances of the passwords but still at few places passwords are being logged) but unfortunately it display the password inside the log file.
(1) MsiHiddenProperties property with the password property value and custom action that uses that properties. (all the values with delimeter semicolon)
(2) we have tried by adding 8192 into the customaction type and also added prooeprties name into target column
(3) I have also checked that password property is exist into the secure property.
