Package: gmail-notify
Version: 1.6.1.1-1
Severity: important
I just happened to look in the .notifier.conf file that gmail-notify keeps in
my home directory and noticed that it was storing my password in plain text. I
had assumed it would be stored somewhere in some encrypted form.
Ideally this should be fixed by encrypting the password, but at a minimum there
should be a warning that the password is going to be stored in this way.
