Hello, storing thumbnails should be an option choosable by the user in the konqueror property sheet. Of course the data are readable by any administrator. The other thing is that a huge amount of storage is wasted. Therefore the storage should be limited by an option let's say for example 5MB. Alternativly the user can create a tmpfs file system in the RAM and link .thumbnails to this place. Another thing is that any user data stored on the hd, which is not controlled by the user is security vulnerabilty where somebody can attack (see the discussion Bundestrojaner and Schäuble in Germany).

Do you mean some other method of privacy leak? $ ls -lda ~/.thumbnails drwx------ 5 kees kees 42 2005-11-11 09:07 /home/kees/.thumbnails/ ** Visibility changed to: Public ** Changed in: kdebase (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Kees Cook Status: New => Invalid -- thumnails konqueror https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140776 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug.
