Bug ID: 401099
Summary: When trusting an imported secret key, KGpg fills all
memory and swap space and never completes the
operation
Product: kgpg
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@opensource.sf-tec.de
Reporter: marek...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
KGpg version 17.04.3 (current version on Ubuntu 17.10)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Export a PGP secret key from a third party
2. Import it into KGpg
3. Open the key properties dialogue, the trust level is "Unknown" as expected
for imported keys.
4. Change trust level to Ultimate and click Apply or OK.
OBSERVED RESULT
KGpg and gpg heavily utilises CPU. Memory starts to slowly fill up until it's
full. Then swap space starts to fill up until it's full. Then system crashes.
Tried multiple times with different keys. Created a large, 20GB swap space to
see what happens and observed the same behaviour.
EXPECTED RESULT
Just as in gpg command line editor, when trust command is issued, it should
immediately change trust level on the selected key and complete operation
swiftly.
