Title:
Autorun files from Removable Media
Status in gsettings-desktop-schemas package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Ubuntu 16 is still automatically executing software that resides in an
external resource (removable media), such as USB or CD.
I don't need to tell you how bad this is..
---
You can see the default value that allows to autoplay / autorun files
by doing the following steps:
1. In Ubuntu 16.04, go to Settings -> Details.
2. In the left pane choose "Removable Media".
3. On the right pane you'll see "Software", while the value in the drop-down
menu is "Run Software".
---
A fix suggestion:
Instead of "Run Software", the default value should be "Do nothing".
