[Bug 1805715] Re: password exposed in application windows
Yes, in fact we can say with some confidence that the issue was probably fixed in a later Gnome version since no one else is reporting the issue in 18.04/18.10. If only we knew what fixed it and where then we would be able to backport that fix :/ ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1805715 Title: password exposed in application windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1805715/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I did some tests with 18.10 but the problem did not occur. Since the bug is intermittent, these tests may not be significant.

Testing 18.10 would help us the most in the short term.

Can you please try Ubuntu 18.04 and tell us if it has the same bug? http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ I feel this is most likely a bug that was fixed some time ago. And certainly if you're using Gnome Shell then we recommend Ubuntu 18.04 or later. ** Package changed: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu) ** Also affects: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gdm3 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1805715 Title: password exposed in application windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1805715/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Daniel, When I was running 16.04.0 with the same mods described in comment 3 and with the same monitor BUT with an older computer, I never got this problem. When I installed 16.04.5 (new install, erasing everything) on a newer computer BUT with the same monitor, I started getting this issue.

Oh, it is gdm3. But being Ubuntu 16.04 an older version than what we support in 18.04 onward.

[Bug 1805715] Re: password exposed in calculator input box
No I haven't. Is this really about an animated gnome-screensaver or just the screen lock? If the latter it might be better to assign this to 'lightdm'. ** Description changed: Plain text Linux user id password exposed in calculator input box. The first character of the password is dropped. This is reproducible as follows: + 0. the calculator window has the desktop focus and the input box is empty. 1. allow screen saver to kick in or invoke it manually with ctrl+alt+l 2. type in password 3. hit enter 4. view password in input box of calculator (less first character) - - Note the calculator window has the desktop focus and the input box is - empty.

The problem has just occurred in a Chrome browser gmail window while composing a new mail. In mid composition, I left my computer to attend to other matters. When I came back, the screen was locked.

Cannot reproduce this problem since reporting it. That said, it has been festering for a while. Please leave this open for others, just in case, given the seriousness.

The bug was reproducible yesterday and was experienced previously. Today, after booting from last night's shutdown, the problem is no longer manifesting itself. Note that Unity has been removed in favour of Gnome3 as per the following procedure: sudo apt-get install gdm3 sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm sudo reboot sudo apt-get remove unity sudo apt-get remove lightdm sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop Docky is now the launcher.
