Bug 409810

Created attachment 121518 [details]
A screenshot showing the bug. The "security-low" icon can be seen.

SUMMARY
Akregator uses Libkdepim/ProgressManager to display the feed update progress. Even though the feed URL is HTTPS and the connection is secured, the progress bar indicates that "Connection is unencrypted".

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add some (5-10) HTTPS RSS feeds in Akregator
2. Open Wireshark and monitor port 80
3. Fetch the HTTPS feeds in Akregator and open the progress manager

OBSERVED RESULT
1. In Wireshark, there is no packet related to the fetch of HTTPS feeds, which means that the connections are encrypted.
2. In the progress manager, the "security-low" icon is displayed. (See attached screenshot) If you hover the mouse over the icon, "Connection is unencrypted" is displayed.

EXPECTED RESULT
The "security-high" icon should be displayed. If you hover the mouse over the icon, "Connection is encrypted" should be displayed.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux, KDE Frameworks 5.59.0, Akregator 19.04.3
