Summary
The C++ event processor emitted custom (track) events using the non-redacting context filter, so anonymous contexts were sent with all attributes intact. Server-side SDKs now redact all attributes of anonymous contexts in custom events (matching feature-event behavior); client-side SDKs continue to send them unredacted (they redact anonymous attributes only in feature events).
AsioEventProcessor<SDK>::Process:FilterWithAnonymousRedactionfor the server SDK,Filterfor the client SDK.redactAnonymousAllEventssplit in java-core / dotnet-core.Note
Medium Risk
Changes what PII/context data leaves server-side custom events (privacy fix), but scope is limited to one code path and mirrors existing feature-event filtering.
Overview
Server-side custom (track) events now run context through
FilterWithAnonymousRedactionbefore emission, so anonymous contexts no longer ship with full attributes in those payloads. Client SDK track events still use the standardFilterpath, unchanged.The branch is chosen in
AsioEventProcessor<SDK>::Processfrom the SDK template type, aligning track events with how full feature events already redact anonymous context on the server and withredactAnonymousAllEventsbehavior in other SDKs.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit da0f065.
