RFE: ignorePorts=false and untrusted

Post by al_9x »

when ignorePorts=false is applied to the whitelist it pulls in a more restrictive direction, less implicit trust

but when applied to the blacklist, the same setting pulls in a less restrictive direction, less implicit distrust

That's a bit schizophrenic, I think it makes sense to decouple its application. It either shouldn't apply to untrusted at all, or there should be a separate setting.

This. It should just be a UI issue, though, isn't it? (i.e. site specifications listed for "Mark as untrusted" should never contain ports)

By just a UI issue do you mean that the difference between untrusted and non-whitelisted is just cosmetic?

So you agree that the current behavior should be changed? Now ignorePorts=false does apply to untrusted, if domain.invalid is marked untrusted, domain.invalid:port is not treated as untrusted.
