Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server V 6.1 and  *
*                  V7.0 that have Common Event Infrastructure  *
*                  (CEI) installed in their environment and    *
*                  want to configure JMS authentication alias. *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Common Event Infrastructure prints      *
*                      in the trace file, when logging         *
*                      is set to finest (or all) may           *
*                      contain sensitive information.          *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
For debugging purposes Common Event Infrastructure offers the
possibility to log the trace of an issued command. When the
user wants to set a JMS authorization alias, one of Common
Event Infrastructure's methods may also print out sensitive
information.

Problem conclusion

If the parameters passed to CEI contain sensitive information,
this is no longer printed in the logs, but it is replaced by
some * (star) characters.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 6.1.0.31 and 7.0.0.9.  Please refer to the
