AI-suggested

A fix is available in version 0.4.6 and later. Users should upgrade to clickhouse-r2dbc, clickhouse-jdbc, and clickhouse-client version 0.4.6 or newer to remediate this issue. Until upgraded, avoid logging exception messages that may contain sensitive SSL key passwords or restrict access to such logs to trusted personnel only.

Description

Exposure of sensitive information in exceptions in ClichHouse's clickhouse-r2dbc, com.clickhouse:clickhouse-jdbc, and com.clickhouse:clickhouse-client versions less than 0.4.6 allows unauthorized users to gain access to client certificate passwords via client exception logs. This occurs when 'sslkey' is specified and an exception, such as a ClickHouseException or SQLException, is thrown during database operations; the certificate password is then included in the logged exception message.
