Hi all I am currently involved in rolling QGIS 2.18 out in a corporate environment. The security risk of a user installing a malicious plugin from the Official Plugin Repository has come up.
While we can ensure our corporate plugin repository is immediately visible to all corporate users via a startup.py script, it appears that we: - cannot remove the Official Plugin Repository from the repository list (due to https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/release-2_18/python/pyplugin_installer/installer_data.py#L316-L326) - cannot disable the Official Plugin Repository via Python API (and the user would just be able to enable via the Plugin Manager interface anyway) - cannot set the Plugin Manager interface to only show trusted plugins - cannot set the url parameters to include trusted=true as the url params are hardcoded: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/release-2_18/python/pyplugin_installer/installer_data.py#L228 So is there any other way to remove the Official Plugin Repository or limit the plugins that we allow users to view and install?
