Public bug reported:
The bug occurs after removing location access authorization to an
application. The location is still available to the application, despite
the user having revoked access from within USS > Privacy > Location.
To reproduce:
1. Open a map application, like Here map
2. Allow access to location
3. Switch to System Settings > Privacy > Location
4. Disable location access for Maps
5. Kill Here map, and restart it
What should happen: you should not have access anymore (and should not see a
prompt)
What happens instead: the app still has access to your location, as shown in
the logs:
I1030 16:15:38.167752 3100 cached_agent_glog_reporter.cpp:32]
CachedAgent::authenticate_request_with_parameters: Application pid:
27975 Application uid: 32011 Application id: com.nokia.heremaps_here
Cached request: Request(from: com.nokia.heremaps_here, feature: 0,
when: 1414682114882519283, answer: granted)
I confirmed that the trust store had recorded the authorization change
as in:
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sqlite3 ~/.local/share/UbuntuLocationService/trust.db
"select * from requests"
