SUMMARY After inspection of Password text content, "Save changes" is triggered when text is marked by the mouse and then copied. "Pairs" (Key and content) doesn't exhibit this behaviour. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open the KWallet Manager. 2. Select the Folder "Passwords" and then the sub-folder "Passwords" (text). 3. Select a Password and then display the content. 4. Select some text and then copy it to the KDE Paste Buffer. 5. Select another Password. OBSERVED RESULT The "Save changes" window appears. EXPECTED RESULT There were no changes made (only content was copied) and therefore there's no need to save any changes which were not made.

Seems to have been resolved by one of the openSUSE patches offered after the 22nd of July 2022. Possible candidate: Security update for libxml2 - CVE-2022-29824: Fixed integer overflow that could have led to an out-of-bounds write in buf.c (xmlBuf*) and tree.c (xmlBuffer*) (bsc#1199132). Also a possible candidate, despite a direct association with KWalletManager: Security update for pcre2 – CVE-2022-1587: Fixed out-of-bounds read due to bug in recursions (bsc#1199235).
