Logging Configuration and YAML Loading Issues in "main.py"

Madhav-MKNC opened this issue · 2 comments

The current code snippet has two issues related to logging configuration and YAML loading. These issues should be addressed to ensure proper functionality and security. Here are the details of each issue:

Logging Configuration:
The logging configuration in the code is incomplete and needs improvement. It lacks the setup for the log handler and the desired log level. The code should be modified to include a suitable log handler and set the appropriate log level for different ranks. This will ensure consistent and effective logging throughout the application.

YAML Loading Security:
The code uses yaml.load to parse the YAML file, which can potentially introduce security vulnerabilities due to code injection. It is recommended to replace yaml.load with yaml.safe_load to safely load the YAML file. This will prevent potential risks associated with malicious YAML files.

To address these issues, the logging configuration should be updated to include the desired log handler and log level. Additionally, the usage of yaml.load should be replaced with yaml.safe_load for secure YAML loading.

Please consider reviewing and resolving these issues to enhance the code's functionality and ensure proper security practices

Hi @Madhav-MKNC, this also sound reasonable to me. Should be pretty straightforward, did you want to submit a PR for this change? If not I can take care of it perhaps sometime this weekend.

Yes sure, I would like to submit a PR for this.
