Log file of Visual Studio buildtools contains all plan variables even "secret" ones!!!

Hi,

I am trying to build my test database project using Bamboo and Visual Studio 2022 Build Tools. I want to generate a log file containing build logs.

My build script is something like below:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe" ^
C:\bamboo-home\local-working-dir\P1-PL1-BDJ\DbSource\Database3.sln /maxCpuCount /t:Rebuild /p:Configuration=Release /fileLogger1 /fileLoggerParameters1:LogFile=C:\bamboo-home\local-working-dir\P1-PL1-BDJ\DbSource\MSBuildLog.txt;Append;Verbosity=diagnostic;Encoding=UTF-8

After the execution, the generated MSBuildLog.txt contains all plan variables' value unencrypted! They are even not used for this build task.

Why is this happening? How can I prevent these irrelevant information from being logged?

Thanks
