[Bug 1813947] [NEW] watchlist notification email about a page that is not on a watchlist

 

Public bug reported:

Possible GDPR ramifications.

Student A received a notification that (Student B) Student A's Portfolio
was updated. Student B does not own Student A's page. Is not attached to
Student A's page, is not being shared with or two student A.

Student A's Portfolio is only shared with her tutors, not fellow
students. Student B shouldn't have access (and doesn't from what I can
see) to Student A's page at all.  Let alone to setup a watchlist.  When
I logged in as Student B, there was no evidence that she had ever setup
a watchlist at all.
