Bug ID: 463265
Summary: Rules created via the simple dialogue have opposite
sense to what was expected
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_firewall
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Creating a rule using the simple "Create A New Firewall Rule" dialogue to allow
incoming for a selected application should allow incoming connections _to_ that
port; instead it allows incoming connections _from_ that port.
This means that -- for example -- allowing incoming for OpenSSH does not allow
other devices on the network to connect via ssh.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the firewall module in System Settings (supplying password if
requested)
2. Enable the firewall if it isn't already
3. "+ Add Rule..." (Create A New Firewall Rule dialogue appears)
4. Select an application from the list (e.g. OpenSSH)
5. Set Policy to "Allow"
6. Set Direction to "Incoming"
7. Click "Create"
OBSERVED RESULT
Rules are created that allow incoming from "OpenSSH (22/TCP)" to "Anywhere"
EXPECTED RESULT
Rules are created that allow incoming from "Anywhere" to "OpenSSH (22/TCP)"
