Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I am using the latest 8.10. When the user with a private directory is not logged in, root can have a look in the Private directory and see exactly one file in clear: lrwxrwxrwx 1 norbert norbert 28 2008-10-15 23:19 THIS DIRECTORY HAS BEEN UNMOUNTED TO PROTECT YOUR DATA -- Run mount.ecryptfs_private to mount again -> /sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private -rw------- 1 norbert norbert 421581 2008-10-15 22:15 x.png.nc Here the file x.png.nc is the one. This file can be extracted and viewed. Regarding the nature of this directory, I regard this problem as security relevant. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
