Please report the issue at http://bugs.kde.org session based password remembering is an essential part of KDE's io slave handling, it should be changed in KDE, not Kubuntu. -- Konqueror remembers password when told not to with fish kioslave https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229545 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 229545] Re: Konqueror remembers password when told not to with fish kioslave
Konqueror/fish kio slave remembering the password (even if it's for the "session") when "remember password" has not been selected is downright misleading, and looks like cheating. The user can feel very insecure, with no obvious way of making it "forget" the password ("oh no, looks like it has stored my password... **panic**... go to configure konqueror, try to delete private data... it STILL remembers my password... **more panic** ... I can't trust Konqueror any more!"). This is critical on a public, shared computer. If "remember password" is not selected, the password should be used once for connecting and then forgotten. A "remember for session" option could be added, along with a clear definition of "session" and a way to allow the user to explicitly make Konqueror forget the password. It should be made clear to the user that this password will remain only in RAM, and not on the hard disk. This will ensure that the password won't be recoverable later in case of a power failure or something. The user might be at a public computer for a limited period of time (exactly the situation in which I encountered this bug), and it may not be possible for him/her to come back to the computer after the power has been restored. Users can be very sensitive about their passwords on remote machines, and KDE should respect this. Not only should Konqueror do the right thing, it should *take the user in confidence*, and the user should know exactly how Konqueror is dealing with the password. The user must be able to revoke the trust at any time. I sincerely believe that this bug is not invalid. I'm not sure if it's considered proper etiquette around here if I change the status back, though, so for now I'm leaving it at invalid. (I think a similar issue occurs with HTTP Basic Authentication, but I'm not very sure.) -- Konqueror remembers password when told not to with fish kioslave https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229545 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 229545] Re: Konqueror remembers password when told not to with fish kioslave
Well, don't kill the remote process. Konqueror (or rather the underlying fish kio slave) will remember the password for the session time - which is the actual usage + a time buffer of 30 seconds to some minutes (differs from kio slave to kio slave). ** This bug is no longer flagged as a security issue ** Changed in: kdebase (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Konqueror remembers password when told not to with fish kioslave https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229545 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
