Hi,
Found this issue and tried it twice tonight on two different
machines.
With xscreensaver locked and waiting for your password, I walk up and
hit Alt-Ctrl-Backspace. It kills X and drops me into the console as you.
At this point I have your account.
I guess this is an XFree issue? Is there a way to configure XFree to not do this? Or is this an xscreensaver issue. Should it trap the key sequence and do nothing?
Is this a known bug? It seems quite dangerous to me.
From 'man XF86Config':
Option "DontZap" "boolean" This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace sequence. That sequence is normally used to terminate the X server. When this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed to clients. Default: off.
