Bug ID: 452676
Summary: No unconditional activation of all plugins for newly
paired devices
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Unspecified
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: paul_krause_1...@t-online.de
Target Milestone: ---
At the moment, each newly paired device has all plugins active on both paired
devices.
It would be more secure, and a nice feature, if this would not be the case
unconditionally.
Some extend of security is of course provided by the sandbox of flatpak, the
permissions system on mobile phones. But in other cases a newly paired device
can do anything on the other device (e.g. using the Run Commands plugin) that
the pairing user can do.
Personally, I do not mind if there is no fine control, just a "No plugin
activated by default" option. Likewise whether this is controlled by an option
in the gui, for desktop devices by some configuration file, by a pop-up asking
for preference at the time of pairing, or just plain hard-coded.
Many Thanks!
