To be clear, the "always restart locked" half of the fix is the more
important bit.  The crash is embarrassing, but crashes will happen, and
we'll find others.  Having it restart unlocked is bordering on
unforgivable, and we should focus on fixing that first.

  Ubuntu 14.04: security problem in the lock screen

Bug description:
  affects ubuntu

  Hello,
  I am running Ubuntu 14.04 with all the packages updated.
  When the screen is locked with password, if I hold ENTER after some
  seconds the screen freezes and the lock screen crashes. After that I
  have the computer fully unlocked.
