           Summary: KWallet/SecretService: Support "plain" algorithm for
                    DBus communications
           Product: frameworks-kwallet
           Version: 5.97.0
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: va...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

Based on https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kwallet/-/issues/3

SUMMARY
KWallet introduced Secret Service API support in 5.97.0, but only using
encrypted communication over DBus ("dh-ietf1024-sha256-aes128-cbc-pkcs7"
algorthm).
https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kwallet/-/blob/master/src/runtime/kwalletd/kwalletfreedesktopservice.cpp#L265

Some applications use a hardcoded "plain" algorithm for secret transfer and the
specification says: "It is strongly recommended that a service implementing
this API support the plain algorithm."  
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/secret-service/latest/ch07s02.html

It would be awesome if "plain" would also be supported to support more
applications.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.97.0
