<p>The whole approach of comparing executables is just completely flawed and does not provide any security, only maybe "accidental" use of an interface by an application.</p>

<p>The bug outlined above is not responsible for that. It's something else. (Possibly the NoDisplay flag?)</p></blockquote>
<p>I didn't mean that this bug was responsible, but rather that the blacklisting is. There is just no <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">.desktop</tt> file at all in xdg-desktop-portal-kde 5.17, so it's completely blocked.</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R108 KWin</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D22571">https://phabricator.kde.org/D22571</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>apol, Plasma, KWin, davidedmundson<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>fvogt, zzag, broulik, graesslin, davidedmundson, kwin, LeGast00n, The-Feren-OS-Dev, sbergeron, jraleigh, fbampaloukas, GB_2, mkulinski, ragreen, jackyalcine, iodelay, crozbo, bwowk, ZrenBot, ngraham, alexeymin, himcesjf, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, hardening, romangg, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol, ahiemstra, mart<br /></div>
