inserted image in product description got broken on front end

[forvin]

My site is built by Magento 2.1. Newly added products will not appear until you manually re-index via SSH. But inserted image in product description will break after you re-index your magento. Anybody know how to fix the two problems? Thank you !

Preconditions

Using custom Ubuntu xenial vagrant-box, php7, apache

1. Have latest stable release of Magento 2.1 installed.
2. Install sample data (sampledata:deploy).
3. {optional} disable xdebug php module (makes testing faster).
4. {optional} disable js merging/minifying (if running in developer mode, makes testing faster).

Steps to reproduce

1. Log into admin
2. Navigate to PRODUCTS >> Inventory >> Catalog
3. Filter the list by name: "Breathe-Easy Tank"
4. Select the product that has that exact name (should be last in the list)
5. In the editor form open up: Content >> Description
6. Enable WYSIWYG editor
7. Use the Insert/Edit image icon in the editor toolbar
8. Use the "Browse" icon/button (it's next to "Image url" field) in the popup that opens
9. Choose any image
10. (the image will show up in the product description area)
11. save the product
12. switch to storefront in another tab
13. search for "Breathe-Easy Tank"
14. choose the product in result that has that exact name
15. find the product description on the page (the added image should be visible there)
16. [admin tab] sign out from admin
17. [storefront tab] reload the category page

Expected result

Image gets rendered in the description area

Actual result

Image is not rendered, instead you get broken image link icon

Notes

What I have now experienced is that the media directive in product description never gets converted to the common format of {{media}}. Instead, it remains an admin link. This means that it kind of looks OK for you after you have saved it and remain logged in in admin, but as soon as you log out or as soon as someone else visits the product page - the image link is broken.

Seems that same happens with category description. Even if you try to use media directives, they never get converted to proper image url's.

Issue prevalent: product pages, category pages.

The actual URL generated in the frontend for the image is similar to:

http://magento.dev/admin/cms/wysiwyg/directive/___directive/e3ttZWRpYSB1cmw9Ind5c2l3eWcvXzkwODgyOTA2X21lZGlhaXRlbTkwODgyOTA1LmpwZyJ9fQ,,/key/63c0a22e66f27a455e7909536728d8fe3fe5042ab22c7813ddd77c476c6a2f15/

Accessing the url directly redirects you to the admin dashboard (if logged in).

Same problem as @allanpaiste. Revealing admin url is a security issue:

We have a lot of product descriptions which show a broken image and it happens only when administrator log's out from Magento admin. This should be high priority.
