[Bug 1205273] Re: Session is not locked when switching to guest session

 

This bug was fixed in the package indicator-session -
12.10.5+13.10.20130821-0ubuntu1

---------------
indicator-session (12.10.5+13.10.20130821-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  [ Charles Kerr ]
  * Lock the current session before switching to the guest session. This
    is done by modifying IndicatorSessionActionsDbus::switch_to_guest()
    to call org.gnome.ScreenSaver's Lock function before switching to
    the guest session. (LP: #1205273)

Title:
  Session is not locked when switching to guest session

Status in The Session Menu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I expect my session to be locked when switching to a guest session. If
  it isn't, the guest could just switch to my VT with Ctrl+Alt+F7.

  Apparently, `gnome-screensaver --lock` (or the
  org.gnome.SessionManager equivalent) needs to be called when switching
  users or creating a guest session.
