This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 229-6ubuntu1

---------------
systemd (229-6ubuntu1) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Hack to support system-image read-only /etc, and modify files in
      /etc/writable/ instead.

systemd (229-6) unstable; urgency=medium

  * systemd-container: Prefer renamed "btrfs-progs" package name over
    "btrfs-tools". (Closes: #822629)
  * systemd-container: Recommend libnss-mymachines. (Closes: #822615)
  * Drop systemd-dbg, in favor of debhelpers' automatic -dbgsym packages.
  * Drop Add-targets-for-compatibility-with-Debian-insserv-sy.patch; we don't
    need $x-display-manager any more as most/all DMs ship native services, and
    $mail-transport-agent is not widely used (not even by our default MTA
    exim4).
  * Unify our two patches for Debian specific configuration files.
  * Drop udev-re-enable-mount-propagation-for-udevd.patch, i. e. run udevd in
    its own slave mount name space again. laptop-mode-tools 1.68 fixed the
    original bug (#762018), thus add a Breaks: to earlier versions.
  * Ship fbdev-blacklist.conf in /lib/modprobe.d/ instead of /etc/modprobe.d/;
    remove the conffile on upgrades.
  * Replace util-Add-hidden-suffixes-for-ucf.patch with patch that got
    committed upstream.
  * Replace Stop-syslog.socket-when-entering-emergency-mode.patch with patch
    that got committed upstream.
  * debian/udev.README.Debian: Adjust documentation of MAC based naming for
    USB network cards to the udev rule, where this was moved to in 229-5.
  * debian/extra/init-functions.d/40-systemd: Invoke status command with
    --no-pager, to avoid blocking scripts that call an init.d script with
    "status" with an unexpected pager process. (Closes: #765175, LP: #1576409)
  * Add debian/extra/rules/70-debian-uaccess.rules: Make FIDO U2F dongles
    accessible to the user session. This avoids having to install libu2f-host0
    (which isn't discoverable at all) to make those devices work.
    (LP: #1387908)
  * libnss-resolve: Enable systemd-resolved.service on package installation,
    as this package makes little sense without resolved.
  * Add a DHCP exit hook for pushing received NTP servers into timesyncd.
    (LP: #1578663)
  * debian/udev.postinst: Fix migration check from the old persistent-net
    generator to not apply to chroots. (Closes: #813141)
  * Revert "enable TasksMax= for all services by default, and set it to 512".
    Introducing a default limit on number of threads broke a lot of software
    which regularly needs more, such as MySQL and RabbitMQ, or services that
    spawn off an indefinite number of subtasks that are not in a scope, like
    LXC or cron. 512 is way too much for most "simple" services, and it's way
    too little for the ones mentioned above. Effective (and much stricter)
    limits should instead be put into units individually.
    (Closes: #823530, LP: #1578080)
  * Split out udev rule to name USB network interfaces by MAC address into
    73-usb-net-by-mac.rules, so that it's easier to disable. (Closes: #824025)
  * 73-usb-net-by-mac.rules: Disable when net.ifnames=0 is specified on the
    kernel command line, to be consistent with disabling the *.link files.
  * 73-special-net-names.rule: Name the IBM integrated management module
    virtual USB network card "ibmimm". Thanks Marco d'Itri!

Title:
  [udev] FIDO u2f security keys should be supported out of the box

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Trusty:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Users plugin U2F key and it does not work in Google Chrome

  [Test Case]

   * Have stock ubuntu install, without custom U2F rules or libu2f-host0
  installed

   * Use U2F factor authentication website e.g. google apps, github,
  yubico, etc.

   * Pluging in the key, should just work and complete U2F
  authentication instead of timing out

  [Regression Potential]

   * Should not conflict with libu2f-host0 udev rules which is where
  these are currently shipped

  FIDO u2f is an emerging standard for public-private cryptography based
  2nd factor authentication, which improves on OTP by mitigating
  phishing, man-in-the-middle attacks and reply attacks.

  Google Chrome supports u2f devices which are now widely available from
  Yubico (new premium neo Yubikeys and Security keys).

  However, udev rules are required to setup permissions to allow the
  web-browsers which are running as regular users to access the devices
  in question.

  E.g.:

  KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev",
  ATTRS{idVendor}=="1050", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0113|0114|0115|0116|0120"

  Something like that should be enabled by default, however probably not
  encode on the vendor/productid as other vendors will also make u2f
  devices.
