The SensitiveParameter class

(PHP 8 >= 8.2.0)

Introduction

This attribute is used to mark a parameter that is sensitive and should have its value redacted if present in a stack trace.

Class synopsis

final class SensitiveParameter {
/* Methods */
public __construct()
}

Examples

<?php

function defaultBehavior(
string $secret,
string $normal
) {
throw new
Exception('Error!');
}

function
sensitiveParametersWithAttribute(
#[\SensitiveParameter]
string $secret,
string $normal
) {
throw new
Exception('Error!');
}

try {
defaultBehavior('password', 'normal');
} catch (
Exception $e) {
echo
$e, PHP_EOL, PHP_EOL;
}

try {
sensitiveParametersWithAttribute('password', 'normal');
} catch (
Exception $e) {
echo
$e, PHP_EOL, PHP_EOL;
}

?>

Output of the above example in PHP 8.2 is similar to:

Exception: Error! in example.php:7
Stack trace:
#0 example.php(19): defaultBehavior('password', 'normal')
#1 {main}

Exception: Error! in example.php:15
Stack trace:
#0 example.php(25): sensitiveParametersWithAttribute(Object(SensitiveParameterValue), 'normal')
#1 {main}
