            Bug ID: 335117
           Summary: Information leak when using GPG on Bcc recipients
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.12.4
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: crypto
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs@kde.org
          Reporter: n...@naturalnet.de

When sending e-mail to several recipients, of which some are Bcc with the
intention to hide them from the other recipients, using GPG leaks information
about those because the used encryption keys are visible on the encrypted
message.

GPG has a -R option that hides the used encryption key, and this method is most
likely also exposed through whatever KMail uses to run GPG. It should be used
for all Bcc recipients in order to not disclose their existence!

Reproducible: Always
