Bug ID: 451069
Summary: VPN password input sanitizer
Product: plasma-nm
Version: 5.24.2
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: applet
Assignee: jgrul...@redhat.com
Reporter: ilario.gottarde...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When entering a password for a VPN connection, cariage return will not be
removed so a simple double click - middle button copy-paste will fail.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to a VPN (in my case OpenVPN)
2. copy-paste the password from a text file
3. Connection will fail because of wrong password
OBSERVED RESULT
Cariage return is pasted and considered a character of the password
EXPECTED RESULT
Invalid characters should be stripped
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.24
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I know passwords should not be saved in text files and so on, but it is like it
is. The same password is used to connect to Teams and selecting it double
clicking the line and pasting with middle button works as expected.
