Issue [#353857](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/353857) is an example of credential leaks through log file. -- When credentials are required in a CI/CD job, use [masked variables](../ci/variables/index.md#mask-a-cicd-variable) to help prevent accidental exposure in the job logs. Be aware that when [debug logging](../ci/variables/index.md#debug-logging) is enabled, all masked CI/CD variables are visible in job logs. Also consider using [protected variables](../ci/variables/index.md#protected-cicd-variables) when possible so that sensitive CI/CD variables are only available to pipelines running on protected branches or protected tags. +- When credentials are required in a CI/CD job, use [masked variables](../ci/variables/index.md#mask-a-cicd-variable) to help prevent accidental exposure in the job logs.
