HAR Sanitizer: secure HAR sharing (cloudflare.com)

There is a new feature request for Chromium to strip this information by default, so people don't have to be educated to do any action like uploading it to Cloudflares tool!

I'm kinda missing this in the next steps defined by Cloudflare...

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=149580...


This would be attractive as a console application. But having to upload a file with sensitive information to CF to have it sanitized makes less sense.

Purpose and fit seems to be lost, here.


Looks like it can be run locally ok with npm https://github.com/cloudflare/har-sanitizer


Looks like it only checks for authorization: redaction in the headers which is great, but continues to leak the authorization header in batched http calls for Google APIs

IOW, a fine start, but one should still actually check har files for stanzas that are relevant to your authn/authz situation before sharing them with anyone


From the article

>The tool is built entirely on Cloudflare Workers, and all sanitization is done client-side which means Cloudflare never sees the full contents of the session token.


You can just deploy it to Cloudflare workers


CF schooling Okta


Thank you Cloudflare folks!
