Bug ID: 513274
Summary: Please make OSC52 support configurable and opt-in
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version First 25.08.3
Reported In:
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: copy-paste
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
As of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=372116 and
https://invent.kde.org/utilities/konsole/-/commit/9f7a2b846afbf3d34d10c224a9f3b32ce7aa1379,
Konsole supports OSC52 write-only access, with read access intentionally left
disabled due to security concerns.
I believe write-only access also comes with certain security shortcomings. For
example, I may be connected to an untrusted machine via SSH, and as I copy
something innocuous to subsequently paste it in my main machine, something
malicious is written to the clipboard via OSC52, and malicious contents get
pasted (and potentially executed, depending on the contents and the paste
target).
I wonder if it would be possible to make OSC52 write-only access (currently
enabled and non-configurable) configurable and opt-in?
