Quoting from SQL Server 2008 Books Online - Users who have SHOWPLAN permission can view queries that are captured in Showplan output. These queries may contain sensitive information such as passwords.
Which passwords are they referring to?
Can it be a password from the owner of a SQL agent job that is using the sa account?
Thanks in advance. |

They are referring to input that may be placed in queries or passed to stored procedures. Of course - passwords are just an example. Other data could be social security numbers, account numbers, physical addresses, names, anything!
