Bug ID: 386042
Summary: Only one attempt to enter correct webdav password. It
will not be asked a second time
Product: frameworks-kio
Version: 5.38.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: fa...@kde.org
Reporter: enrico.tagliav...@gmail.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
When trying to access my nextcloud instance via webdavs URL in dolphin I have
only one change to put the correct password in. If I don't put it in right the
first time password will never be asked again.
>From the nextcloud logs I can see dolphin flooding authentication requests,
failing because the password is wrong. Eventually this is detected as a brute
force by nextcloud.
Given I have a fairly long password (24+ chars) and I'm a quite terrible write
this happens often. Only way to get back in is to reboot the computer so I'm
asked again for the password.
Even using webdavs://user:passw...@host.tld/ works after the failed first
attempt.
Steps to reproduce:
1. try to access a Nextcloud (or equivalent) instance via
"webdavs://host.tld/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav/"
2. when asked for username and password put the wrong password in
3. observe nothing happens. Page stays empty, not login failure message is
shown, password is not asked again
4. attempt again, from another dolphin window or from a file open dialogue in
kwrite, or any other application. Nothing will work
