Test your exposed credentials checks configuration

After enabling and configuring exposed credentials checks, you may want to test if the checks are working properly.

Cloudflare provides a special set of case-sensitive credentials for this purpose:

  • Login: CF_EXPOSED_USERNAME or CF_EXPOSED_USERNAME@example.com
  • Password: CF_EXPOSED_PASSWORD

The WAF always considers these specific credentials as having been previously exposed. Use them to force an “exposed credentials” event, which allows you to check the behavior of your current configuration.
