What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The pattern that hides credentials before text leaves your machine now also matches connection strings, cookies, session ids, bearer tokens, passwords and a family of *_key names, on top of the api key, secret and token forms it already caught.
Details
A companion pattern recognises text that is already redacted, so [REDACTED] markers and Bearer/Basic prefixes are not processed twice.
Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
