[GitHub] [cordova-plugin-media-capture] breautek opened a new issue #209: (Android): Plugin declares unnecessary permissions

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

breautek opened a new issue #209:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-media-capture/issues/209


   # Bug Report
   
   ## Problem
   
   ### What is expected to happen?
   
   Plugin unnecessary requires `RECORD_AUDIO`, `WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE`, and `READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` permissions.
   
   `RECORD_AUDIO` only is required if the app uses the microphone APIs directly, but this plugin uses an intent to record audio.
   
   The external permissions are already handled by the cordova-plugin-file, which this plugin depends on.
   
   ### What does actually happen?
   
   Not to declare unnecessary permissions.
   
   ## Information
   <!-- Include all relevant information that might help understand and reproduce the problem -->
   
   This is a GH extension of an existing jira ticket: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10814
   
   Special testing may be necessary around what happens if the app (from an external source) declares `RECORD_AUDIO`, will it causes `SecurityErrorException` like with the `CAMERA` permission (See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10120)
