      Example log line:

      Thu Apr 25 16:35:30.246 [conn1]  authenticate db: test { authenticate: 1, nonce: "ce88504553b16752", user: "z", key: "6deb79af26ebcdd2b2c40438008cb7b0" }
      

      The log entry has more than enough information for any malicious entity to impersonate a user. And even worse, the log will also display an error if authentication fails, so it is easy to tell which users are valid just by examining the logs.
