[Secure-testing-team] Bug#555680: System information in bug reports may be security-sensitive

[Ben Hutchings]

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.31-1
Severity: normal
Tags: security

The bug script now offers to include network configuration and status.
The network configuration file /etc/network/interfaces may include
encryption keys for wireless networks, which we should scrub.  There
is also a more general problem of sensitive information in the kernel
log, but I'm not sure what we can do about that.

Ben.
