Marc, the version currently in eoan-proposed has the fix. I'm working on addressing autopkgtest issues in related packages that prevent thunderbird from migrating to the release pocket.
Once sorted out in eoan, I'll proceed to preparing updates for all stable releases, including this fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1801383 Title: the WifiSyslog apport hook (used in firefox/tb) includes SSID informations Status in apport package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: When I apport-bug certain packages such as firefox for example, it uploads the WifiSyslog.txt file. The WifiSyslog may contain a list of all system connections enumerated in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections, i.e. all SSIDs the user has ever connected to that are found in the system-connections. This is a serious privacy risk and completely unnecessary information for most bug reports. Should either remove WifiSyslog as a requirement for packages that don't need it (should I report this to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/ ?), or redact information that may contain usernames and SSIDs from the log file.
