Audit: redis-py 7.4.0 password leak does not affect Scout#848
Conversation
redis-py < 7.4.0 exposed passwords in ConnectionPool.__repr__(). Scout APM only wraps Redis.execute_command() and Pipeline.execute() and never accesses ConnectionPool.__repr__(), so we are not affected. Add a security note documenting this finding. Closes #841 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
