Ubuntu 14.04: security problem in the lock screen
Status in Unity:
In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
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.

This bug is about the lockscreen being bypassed when unity
crashes/restarts, which is a critcal security issue. The crash will be
handled from bug 1308750
