Description

Mailer for both for issue_add and issue_edit doesn't take watchers' private notes viewing permissions in consideration when generating the cc list.

A possible solution would be to do the following:

  recipients = journal.recipients
  watchers = journal.journalized.watcher_users.active
  watchers.reject! {|user| !journal.visible?(user)}

  cc = watchers.collect(&:mail) - recipients

Being journal.visible? a new method on Journal:

  def visible?(usr=User.current)
    issue.visible?(usr) && (!private_notes? || usr.allowed_to?(:view_private_notes, project))
  end

Daniel, make sure you do the following steps:

Login as user U1
Assign an user U2 as a watcher on a issue I of project P (user U2 must not have permission to view private notes on that project P)
Write a private note on issue I

User U2 now receives a notification email when it shouldn't.

On r10781, neither Mailer nor ActsAsWatchable are fixed so you should still be able to reproduce it:

65| recipients = journal.recipient # Assigns author, assignee selecting those who can view private_notes
66| # Watchers in cc
67| cc = issue.watcher_recipients - recipients # watcher_recipients selects all the watchers that can view
                                               # the issue without rejecting those who can't view private notes

Here's a correction on my solution (I forgot to filter the watchers like it is done on ActsAsWatchable):

recipients = journal.recipients
watchers = journal.journalized.watcher_users.active
watchers.reject! {|user| user.mail_notification == 'none' || !journal.visible?(user)}

cc = watchers.collect(&:mail).compact - recipients
