#7114 closed defect (fixed)

Unprivileged users opening a sensitive ticket don’t know that they succeeded

Reported by: Anders Kaseorg Owned by: Daniel Kahn Gillmor
Priority: normal Component: SensitiveTicketsPlugin
Severity: normal Keywords: newticket success feedback
Cc: Trac Release: 0.11

Description

If a user without SENSITIVE_VIEW permissions opens a sensitive ticket, then they do not have permission to view the ticket they just opened, and they are mysteriously redirected back to the new ticket form with no error message, and no indication that the ticket was successfully opened (even though it was).

Yes, this is a concern. Perhaps the reporter should be allowed access as well as people with SENSITIVE_VIEW. Or maybe anyone in the Cc field as well?
