Package: filezilla Version: 3.0.11.1-1 Severity: important The program silently saves as plain text in it's preferences folder all used passwords including even ssh ones. They are expected to be manually deleted by the user, using menu option that works only when no connection is established. No warning of any kind is issued before saving the password and no options can be found in the preferences dialog to prevent passwords from being written to the disk.
I know that FileZilla is originally Windows program and as such it's developers may see this behavior as acceptable or even expected. If they don't want to fix it adding install time warning to the Debian package may be appropriate. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-tuxonice-fbcon (SMP w/1 CPU core; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=bg_BG.CP1251, LC_CTYPE=bg_BG.CP1251 (charmap=CP1251) (ignored: LC_ALL set to bg_BG.CP1251) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages filezilla depends on: ii filezilla-common 3.0.11.1-1 Architecture independent files for ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.1-6 GCC support library ii libgnutls26 2.4.1-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libidn11 1.9-1 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libstdc++6 4.3.1-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwxbase2.8-0 2.8.7.1-1 wxBase library (runtime) - non-GUI ii libwxgtk2.8-0 2.8.7.1-1 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI t Versions of packages filezilla recommends: ii filezilla-locales 3.0.11.1-1 Translations of filezilla -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
