Title:
Screen unlocks without password
Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I think this might be a duplicate of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1870803
however, I can't find out to add my machine information to it.
A little more information I can add - not sure if it's the same for
original reporter - when I first log into my account I get some sort
of notification about gnome-screensaver not being enabled because
gnome isn't installed; or something to that effect. This started upon
upgrade to Focal.
TLDR: If I lock my account using the gnome-menu, then press
ctrl+alt+F7, it immediately goes to my session without needing to type
a password, bypassing all security.
