Hi all
for security reasons we have chosen AllowArbitraryServer to be disabled
by default. On the other side we have synchronization feature which
allows to connect to arbitrary server as well and fetch any data from
it.
I think this disproportion should be fixed. I can see two approaches:
1. The other option would be to drop AllowArbitraryServer completely as
right now it really does not bring any security.
2. Make AllowArbitraryServer really work as expected:
- Make AllowArbitraryServer enabled by default. I don't think the risk
is too big and many people would use this feature.
- If AllowArbitraryServer is set to false, disallow synchronization
with arbitrary server as well.
But maybe I'm missing some other possibility. Comments?
