Bug ID: 461725
Summary: Plasma Firewall doesn't allow adding rules with IP
ranges that contain backslash character (/)
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.26.2
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_firewall
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: thebluequa...@mailo.com
CC: lucas.bia...@kde.org, tcanabr...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Adding firewall rules with IP ranges in the Plasma Firewall is not possible, as
it doesn't seem to allow backslash character in the IP address boxes.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open system settings and go to Firewall section,
2. After opening the add rule pop-up window, check advanced option
3. Try typing anything in the source or destination box that contains IP range
and backslash (/) character, like 192.168.1.0/24 for the entire local network
IP addresses.
4. You won't be able to type the backslash character and that rule cannot be
created from Plasma Firewall, even though UFW does support such rules
OBSERVED RESULT
It is not possible to add a rule with IP ranges in the Plasma firewall, because
it doesn't allow adding backslash characters in the IP source or destination
boxes
EXPECTED RESULT
As UFW does support adding such rules, Plasma Firewall should support adding
them, too.
