fix: never send a secret property's default to the browser - #344
Conversation
A secret's default is part of the adapter package, so masking a subscription's values never touched it. The UI showed it as the field's placeholder.

📝 SummarySummary
Risk: risk:low Security-sensitive areas: Adapter descriptions sent to clients could expose secret defaults. This change withholds defaults only when the adapter marks the property private. It does not change subscription-value masking. Test coverage impact: Four unit tests cover removing secret defaults, retaining metadata and non-secret defaults, and preserving the input description. Test execution results were not provided. Operational concerns: No migration or deployment change is indicated. Custom adapters must mark passwords and keys as private. The adapter still applies its default when the value is empty. WalkthroughPrivate adapter startup values now omit their defaults in adapter descriptions and API responses. Other value metadata remains. Tests and documentation cover the filtering behavior and secret-property declarations. ChangesSecret Startup Default Filtering

The adapter catalog sent every setting's default to the browser, including the default of a secret setting. The UI shows a default as the field's placeholder. One client adapter shipped a production storage key as the default of a secret-looking setting, so anyone who could view subscriptions could read it.
AdapterStartupValues.WithoutSecretDefaultsdrops the default from every setting the adapter marks private. It's applied on the three endpoints that send adapter settings to the browser:adapters/catalog,GetStartupValuesandproperties. It copies rather than edits, because the description is cached and shared with the masking code. The adapter still applies the default itself when the value is left empty.This only covers settings an adapter marks private. Adapters also have to mark their secrets: simplify9/Bitween-Adapters#71.
Tested: 4 unit tests, and
AdapterCatalogTestspasses. On a local Bitween with a test adapter that marksPasswordprivate with a default, all three endpoints return no default, and an exchange run without a password still sent the default. Docs updated inadapters.mdandsecurity.md.
