Consider a briefly-unattended laptop protected by only a lock screen. Normally the attacker would need a way to kill the X screensaver without killing the X session. Would the above make crashing the X session (and thus being dropped back to the display manager which auto-logs-in) sufficient to gain access? If so, this sounds like a bad idea (or at least an argument for something like physlock). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
