Description Sergey Y. Afonin 2004-07-27 10:08:18 UTC 
Version:           0.7.7 (using KDE 3.2.2, ALT Linux)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (ALT Linux, build 3.3.3-alt4)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.26

Hello.

Currient personal group settings can cause security compromise:
empty fields in identity fill from account properties but this isn't obviously.

I see two ways for resolve it:

1 (easy). Don't fill empty fields in identity of group properties if any one field specified

2 (good). Display filling data from account properties in fields of identity of group properties if field's data isn't specified.

Security issues are "critical" in Bugzilla...
Comment 2 Stephan Binner 2004-08-15 09:55:25 UTC 
If I understand you right this is at most if at all about privacy and the best solution is to show the used identity in the composer.
Comment 3 Volker Krause 2004-08-17 17:32:30 UTC 
CVS commit by vkrause: 

Use the innermost non-empty identity completly instead of merging the group, account and global identity in case of empty fields.

This fixes #61970 and #86070 (1).

Comment 4 Sergey Y. Afonin 2004-08-18 08:23:55 UTC 
to Stephan Binner: Yes. And possible good idea using another color (grey ?) for  data from account properties in felds of group properties
