4. Metadata Leakage via Unfiltered Response Logs

Attack: Sensitive internal IPs, API tokens, or infrastructure references leak through response fields or stack traces returned to the agent. Example Leak: “error”: “Connection refused at 10.2.0.4:9200” Mitigation:

  • Mask IPs, ports, headers, internal stack info
  • Log to secure sinks with masking in place
