Description

Environment variables can be populated from the D-Bus Secret Service so command-line programs can use stored credentials without hardcoding them in shell files.

This security tool helps avoid plaintext secrets in configuration, but secrets still become environment variables for child processes. Be careful with process dumps, logs, shells, and commands that print their environment.
