Audit: Error Handling & Logging

Review error handling patterns and logging practices.

Error Handling

  1. Exception Handling

    • Are exceptions caught appropriately?
    • Generic catches hiding bugs?
    • Error information leakage?
  2. Error Recovery

    • Graceful degradation?
    • Retry logic with backoff?
    • Circuit breaker patterns?
  3. User-Facing Errors

    • Helpful without exposing internals?
    • Consistent error format?
    • Localization support?
  4. API Errors

    • Standard error response format?
    • Appropriate HTTP status codes?
    • Error codes for clients?

Logging

  1. What is Logged

    • Security events (auth, access)?
    • Errors with context?
    • Performance metrics?
  2. What Should NOT be Logged

    • Passwords/tokens
    • PII without consent
    • Full credit card numbers
  3. Log Quality

    • Structured logging (JSON)?
    • Correlation IDs?
    • Log levels used correctly?
  4. Log Security

    • Injection-safe?
    • Tamper-evident?
    • Retention policy?
