Descriptions

In Ubuntu's trust-store, if a user revokes location access from an application, the location is still available to the application because the application will honour incorrect, cached permissions. This is because the cache was not ordered by creation time by the Select struct in src/core/trust/impl/sqlite3/store.cpp. Fixed in trust-store (Ubuntu) version 1.1.0+15.04.20150123-0ubuntu1 and trust-store (Ubuntu RTM) version 1.1.0+15.04.20150123~rtm-0ubuntu1.

En trust-store de Ubuntu, si un usuario revoca el acceso a la ubicación desde una aplicación, la ubicación aún está disponible para la aplicación porque la aplicación respetará los permisos de caché incorrectos. Esto es debido a que la caché no fue ordenada por tiempo de creación por la estructura Select en el archivo src/core/trust/impl/sqlite3/store.cpp. Es corregido en trust-store (Ubuntu) versión 1.1.0+ 15.04.20150123-0ubuntu1 y trust-store (Ubuntu RTM) versión 1.1.0+15.04.20150123~rtm-0ubuntu1
