Description Robert 2017-08-22 23:04:37 UTC
Description of problem:

If a user unwittingly follows the URL provided in the 'mypaint' package, and are not able to *quickly* dismiss the entrapping dialog boxes, they may become quite frustrated trying to leave this phishing site.

An elderly user might additionally be tricked into divulging sensitive data, etc.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mypaint-1.1.0-8.fc24 (noticed)
mypaint-1.?????.fc25
mypaint-1.?????.fc26
mypaint-1.3.0-4.fc27 (rawhide)


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. lookup "the URL" (via rpm, yum, dnf, or gnome software center)
    a. e.g. "dnf info mypaint"
2. click "the URL"

Actual results:
The user is visually and audibly directed that Microsoft has detected a problem with there computer, and that they need to take action.

Expected results:
Browsing the authoritative & relevant mypaint website.

Additional info:
The new URL should probably be: http://mypaint.org/
