Issue: "Secret filtering" feature leads to "Unable to parse invalid logs" error when using empty secret

by armand.beneteau＠iot.bzh

Hello all, I am reporting here an issue we observed, in my company, that has started with the "2026.02" release, and more accurately, with the "Secret filtering" feature. Starting from this release, we've noticed that some of our jobs logs were not displayed in the UI. Instead we just had the following error message: "Unable to parse invalid logs: This is maybe a bug in LAVA that should be reported.". After looking for the source of the problem, we found out that the corresponding temporary logs files (example: /var/lib/lava/dispatcher/worker/tmp/2/logs.yaml) were full of "[MASKED]" string. This leads to a problem during the YAML parsing done a bit further by Lava. And this is at this moment that we understood that the problem happens when one of our "secrets" variable was empty. So, I guess this is a case that you did not cover in your tests, and this is why I wanted to warn you. Best regards, Armand Beneteau
