Summary0000154: Privacy concern
DescriptionUnder which condition is the tverify bit set for a cacert user account? I found that it is the case for quite a lot of users - probably more than really needed.

The problem is, that any of these users can download thawte verification IDs (such as images of passports, drivers licences, etc) from the cacert database by changing the value of photoid in

  https://www.cacert.org/account.php?id=51&photoid=4&img=show

As it might be helpful to have some people to assist with the verification, there is no need to give them permanent access to these files.

I recommend to review the accounts having tverify set and to block access to already verified userphotos.
