This is a duplicate of https://together.jolla.com/question/37710/dbus-monitor-shows-exchange-mail-password-in-clear-text/ because this still happens on my Sailfish X 2.2.0 and I can't reopen an issue.

Copy of the original report :

I was fiddling with the dbus-monitor and noticed the password for my exchange mail flicker by on the screen. It seems like this could be a huge security hole since any app monitoring the dbus could get access to my exchange mail. Here is a draft of what I saw.

method call sender=:1.95 -> dest=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=31 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=GetConnectionUnixProcessID
   string ":1.20"
signal sender=:1.95 -> dest=(null destination) serial=32 path=/com/google/code/AccountsSSO/SingleSignOn/AuthSession_2; interface=com.google.code.AccountsSSO.SingleSignOn.AuthSession; member=stateChanged
   int32 8
   string "The request is started successfully"
method return sender=:1.95 -> dest=:1.20 reply_serial=233
   array [
      dict entry(

It also leaks all the email titles, senders etc :
