Description Marcel de Rooy 2025-08-27 12:49:36 UTC
Since we just save a simple key in localStorage, this may still be active on public computers for the next user of that computer? Unless they have separate guest accounts, or cookies and localStorage are cleared when the browser exits.

Should we make a difference between browsing anonymous or logging in to Koha within this context of public computers? If so, we might need to save data in the db instead of locally?

Looks like this report is less clear than the two others (40712 and 40713).
