fgr Vulnerable to Insecure Default Variable Initialization

Impact

Any users whom would not desire a traceback to be included in their logs whenever an error is raised in their code will be affected.

If users have inadvertently created a scenario in their code that could cause a traceback to include sensitive information and a malicious entity gained access to their log stream, this could create an issue.

Patches

None yet... users will need to upgrade to 0.4.*

Workarounds

No particularly reasonable ones at present.
