Describe the bug
When looking at the logs for lexbox the location header for redirects is shown, that value should be redacted in the logs as it may contain sensitive information.

There's settings to control http response logging which includes what headers to log.

Research direction

Start by locating the HTTP response logging settings and the code that selects response headers for logging. Verify how redirect Location values are currently handled, then make the logging output redact or omit that header while preserving the existing configuration behavior. Done means sensitive Location values no longer appear in Lexbox logs.
