Description Nikos Chantziaras 2021-12-19 03:39:09 UTC 
SUMMARY
***
When opening an encrypted vault in Dolphin and deleting files in it, the files are moved outside the vault and thus are exposed unencrypted. They end up in ~/.local/share/Trash.

I believe this is a serious security issue, which is why I marked this bug with a severity of "major."
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a vault.
2. Create a new text file in the fault.
3. Select the new file in Dolphin and press the Del key on the keyboard.

OBSERVED RESULT
The file gets moved to "~/.local/share/Trash", which is unencrypted.

EXPECTED RESULT
The file should be moved to the trash folder on the root directory of the vault.

Can confirm, though. Came searching for this issue specifically because I unexpectedly found files from my encrypted vault unencrypted in my trash folder.
