Bug ID: 332228
Summary: When displaying HTML mails, KMail loads external
references before asking the user for permission
Classification: Unclassified
Product: kmail2
Version: 4.11.5
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
URL: https://emailprivacytester.com
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
Reporter: mike2.schnei...@gmail.com
With HTML rendering disabled, KMail asks for permission before rendering a HTML
message. It also asks for permission for loading external references. This
creates the impression that no external references are loaded before having
received permission from the user.
However, as a check with https://emailprivacytester.com reveals, KMail loads at
least some external references (, object tags, iframes, CSS) before asking for
permission. This compromises the privacy of the user.
Expected behaviour: Kmail should not load any external references before given
permission to do so by the user.
Reproducible: Always
