I have the external wireless "ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II" (https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/accessories-and-software/keyboards-and-mice/keyboards/4y40x49493). With this keyboard, middle-mouse scrolling *also* sends a middle-click, which often has the net effect of triggering a paste in addition to scrolling. This has the potential for unwanted information disclosure (e.g. passwords), hence the severity. In the past, with a different keyboard (a wired external ThinkPad keyboard), middle-mouse scrolling avoids sending a middle-click, and thus avoids triggering things like middle-mouse paste or opening a new tab. I don't know if this is an issue with the handling of this model, or an issue that changed in libinput. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: arm64 Kernel: Linux 5.16.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
