[feature-request] Give us a keyring
asked 2014-05-02 11:01:06 +0200
Currently there is a bug with wrong file permissions in the credentials database: https://together.jolla.com/question/39495/security-risk-with-sqlite-db-in-jolla-passwords-in-plain-text-in-user-space/
Fixing the file permissions would solve the problem for privileged apps only (=from Jolla itself), a good start :-)
Encrypting the file content and giving every app programmer the key would be security by obscurity. On top of that every app that uses credentials has to solve the problem again and again and from app perspective it can not really be solved.
So please, give us a keyring (or keystore, cryptostore, wallet, what ever you name it) and a nice API for every app to use.
