            Bug ID: 387528
           Summary: Use safer defaults for mounting external drives
           Product: frameworks-solid
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: lu...@kde.org
          Reporter: ongun.ka...@gmail.com
                CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

It looks like Solid uses udisks2 default mount options which mounts external
NTFS drives with 777 permissions. Exec permission is rarely needed for NTFS
drives and might be dangerous for users. External USB drives a constantly used
attack vector against incautious users.

Since udisks2 doesn't allow its hardcoded default permissions to be changed via
a config file implementing it in Solid might be a good way to achieve a safer
default.
