User Story

As a VHServer, I expect to be able to run './vhserver pd' and see the server details on termbin without the password in the launch command exposed

Basic info

  • Distro: [Ubuntu 20.04.2]
  • Game: [Valheim]
  • Command: [pd]
  • LinuxGSM version: [v21.1.3]

Further Information

I have my server up and running and just wanted to see what pd gave me, and noticed that in the command-line output that the password was listed:

Command-line` Parameters
=================================
 ./valheim_server.x86_64 -name 'Chums UP!' -password cleartextpass -port 2456 -world DextersLab -public 1

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Start vhserver: ./vhserver start
  2. ./vhserver pd
  3. Output on termbin contains passwords

Expected behaviour

I would expect my password to be masked since the menu option says that passwords will be removed.

looks like its specifically the start parameters that are the issue.

I can provide my real world example if needed, I would just rather not post it directly in the issue.
