steps to reproduce: 1) open system settings > network > network proxy 2) change mode to manual 3) enter socks host "localhost" and port 12345 as in screenshot 4) click on apply system wide 5) the authenticate dialog appears, press cancel 4 times 6) open browser and go to any website, chrome and firefox complain about the proxy which means that the settings have been applied. the proxy localhost:12345 is not responding, because we didn't set it up.
This means either we can go around the security check by clicking cancel 4 times, or there shouldn't be a dialog box in the first place. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1512156 Title: bypassing password request by pressing 'cancel' 4 times To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1512156/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
