# 2023-01-10 Update Closed in favor of https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/8007+ <!-- This issue template can be used as a great starting point for feature requests. The section "Release notes" can be used as a summary of the feature and is also required if you want to have your release post blog MR auto generated using the release post item generator: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/blog/release-posts/#release-post-item-generator. The remaining sections are the backbone for every feature in GitLab. The goal of this template is brevity for quick/smaller iterations. For a more thorough list of considerations for larger features or feature sets, you can leverage the detailed [feature proposal](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/.gitlab/issue_templates/Feature%20proposal%20-%20detailed.md). --> ### Release notes <!-- What is the problem and solution you're proposing? This content sets the overall vision for the feature and serves as the release notes that will populate in various places, including the [release post blog](https://about.gitlab.com/releases/categories/releases/) and [Gitlab project releases](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/releases). " --> ### Problem to solve <!-- What is the user problem you are trying to solve with this issue? --> We have a scenario where the sensitive values are generated in the pipeline so they are not known prior to the pipeline run. The value is consumed by a 3rd party tool - terraform. The value can be visible as part of a terraform plan. Terraform has support to flag and suppress sensitive values however if we do that then we can’t see other stuff in the plan that we want to see. We want to tell terraform NOT to treat the value as sensitive but then also ensure it’s not visible in the Gitlab logs. Additionally, it’s made us think that we could have other places where sensitive values are being exposed in gitlab logs so it’d actually be a really useful and really cool feature if there was a way to set some sensitive value regexes that can be applied at project level, group level or globally. Then we could do things like set a regex to identify AWS credentials and have confidence that they won’t get exposed anywhere in Gitlab logs. ### Proposal Some iterations: * Use Secret detection to find/present default secrets matched in job logs through the .json report - gitlab~19953071 feature. * Use Secret detection to find/mask default secrets matched in job logs in the job log console and raw output - gitlab~2278657 maybe? * Use Secret detection to find/present default secrets matched in job logs through Ultimate features - gitlab~3207279 feature. * Use the custom ruleset from [Secret Detection](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/application_security/secret_detection/#custom-rulesets) to alert into the existing secrets detection dashboard/reports/etc. - gitlab~3207279 feature * Use the custom ruleset to find/mask data in logs as they stream to the job log console and raw output - gitlab~3207279 feature * Log detection/masking as an [audit event](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/audit_events.html) - gitlab~2278657 ### Intended users <!-- Who will use this feature?
