[Bug 1321043] Re: [regression] lock screen bypass with touchpad

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.2.2+14.04.20140714-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  [ Alfred Neumayer ]
  * Restore the launcher position by reversing the animation and
    unsetting the DND_PUSHED_OFF quirk. (LP: #1304882)

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * TextInput: move the warning icon inside the input field, render it
    white (LP: #1307738)
  * ShutdownView: Scale up the Buttons and Text plus Borders of the
    UnityWindowView. (LP: #1308323)
  * Lockscreen warning icon needs a tooltip to say what the warning is
    about! (LP: #1308288)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * UnityScreen: always paint the lockscreen above, just add menu and
    onboard as exceptions Some code cleanup, factorizing similar code.
    (LP: #1313280)
  * ApplicationLauncherIcon: Focus and, in case, Spread the windows on
    DnD After 1 second that an user is over an icon, that icon should
    focus the relative application and Spread its windows if it has more
    than one opened. Correctly handle the DnD scale in launcher, and
    apply glow to the icon under pointer. (LP: #607796)
  * ShutdownView: Scale up the Buttons and Text plus Borders of the
    UnityWindowView. (LP: #1308323)
  * SwitcherView: use RawPixel's for the size values and convert them to
    match current scaling (LP: #1317348)
  * PluginAdapter: try to grab the screen to make sure that the screen
    is not grabbed FocusIn event with NotifyGrab mode is not always
    triggered by X when a window takes the grab, then we need to ensure
    that there's no grab by trying to get one. We only care about
    keyboard here, since pointer grabs don't affect us in general.
    (LP: #741869)
  * ShortcutView: use RawPixel's for the size values and convert them to
    match current scaling Plus dinamically allocate horizontal space,
    not to cut the text. (LP: #924840)

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Fix issue where scaling the edge illumination up and down with the
    size of the Launcher icons would cause the illumination border to be
    offset and smaller than the icon. (LP: #1309739)
  * Fix issue where the number of Launcher icon pips are not always
    properly updated when a new window of an already running application
    is opened. (LP: #1283775)
  * Fix issue where the Panel shadow would get drawn over drop down
    windows in full screen windows. (LP: #1316005)
  * Bump upstream release to 7.2.2.

  [ Andrea Azzarone ]
  * Clear the clipboard when locking the screen. (LP: #1308911)
  * Disable switcher gestures if screen is locked. Fixed a regression.
    (LP: #1321043)
  * Pass the correct options to showLauncherKeyTerminate in
    UnityScreen::OnLockScreen (LP: #1320438)
  * Fix skype indicator blinking. (LP: #1310200)
  * Add a warning in the session dialog if other sessions are still
    open. (LP: #1281058)

  [ Ubuntu daily release ]
  * New rebuild forced

Title:
  [regression] lock screen bypass with touchpad

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in Unity 7.2 series:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Inpact]
  Using  3/4-fingers gestures in touchpads when unity is locked might make the switcher or the dash to show up

  [Test case]
  1) Lock the unity screen with Super+L
  2) Use the [1] three fingers gesture to show the switcher or the four fingers tap to
     show the dash
  3) Nothing should be shown.

  [Regression Potential]
  There's basically no regression potential. Geistures are just disabled when the screen is locked.

  László Gyaraki has reported a lock screen bypass using the touchpad;
  his video appears to use three-finger or four-finger use of his
  touchpad in conjunction with some gestures to bring up windows from
  the locked session.

  His demonstration video can be found here:
