--- Comment #5 from [email protected] ---
Confirmed here: Windows XP, LibreOffice 3.6.5.2

Unfortunately also confirmed that the recovery file is saved WITHOUT ANY
protection, fully unencrypted into the backup directory (user/backup)!

IMHO it is a very nasty bug in terms of security, that should seriously be
taken into account, and resolved as soon as possible!

Now by switched on recovery the "password protected" document gets saved every
5-10 minutes without ANY protection, easily recoverable by not much advanced
techniques (eg. undeleting the backup file). It is a MAJOR problem in terms of
security, and users definitely should be warned of this, making them switch off
the auto-recovery as a temporary workaround.
