Can not override site-wide plugging setting with "Block" |
|||||||
Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Set enterprise setting to add plugin exception for a particular site, such as bbc.com, and make plugin "always allowed to run". 2. Have user try to override this setting, blocking all plugins for the same site. 3. Observe that the plugins run anyways. What is the expected behavior? If site-wide setting is ALLOW but user override is BLOCK, the interpretation should be the least permissive of the two, i.e. BLOCK, and plugins should not run. What went wrong? Plugin runs unexpectedly. Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116 Channel: stable OS Version: Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0 This is the opposite issue 616218 : in the other bug, it's undesirable for override a policy of ASK with a user setting of ALLOW. In this bug, the user wants to override a policy of ALLOW with a user setting of ASK or BLOCK, to stop random plugins from running. Attached is a screenshot of the conflicting plugin setting, where I expected the less permissive of the two settings to take effect, but it seems that the site-wide setting always takes effect.

I am not sure this is the wanted behavior. Policies does not necessary mean restrictions in the sense of limiting capabilities, but might also mean enforcing capabilities. So if an admin believes running plugins on a page is necessary the user's choice should not be allowed to override this. Adding some more people to chime in on that too.

I don't know how the restrict-view-google label happened to be implied but I also don't see how to remove it since I don't see any reason for it.

It's because you filed a bug using an @google.com address with a screenshot. You need the magic label `allpublic`.

From general content settings perspective, policy settings always override users settings, not just for plugins, also for other types like notifications, cookies...
