Severity	- Unknown + Low
Remote	- Unknown + Local
Type	- Unknown + Insufficient validation
Description	+ fishProtocol::establishConnection in fish/fish.cpp in KDE kio-extras through 20.04.0 makes a cacheAuthentication call even if the user had not set the keepPassword option. This may lead to unintended KWallet storage of the password. + + This is considered a security issue by users who do not trust KWallet (e.g. because passwords can be read in KWalletManager, given physical access).
