@Kai @kairobert Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command only once, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal: apport-collect 966129 You didn't mention your release, but the most modern release mentioned is 16.04.4, and fyi: Xubuntu 16.04 LTS is already EOL (support ended April-2019). Xubuntu has it's own screensaver, having replaced the use of xscreensaver in more modern releases too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This issue still exists. I work in a big company, and on several occations I found my computer unlocked when I got back to my desk. This is a huge security issue and I have to uninstall xubuntu now because of this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 966129] Re: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop
I can confirm this still exists. It's also definitely a security vulnerability. I just came back from the weekend and found my work machine completely unlocked, open, and accessible. Like many users in my place, this is completely unacceptable and dangerous. I have no choice but to stop using xscreensaver now. I'm running xscreensaver 5.34, and Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS (Xenial Xerus) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is still a security issue; password protected machine will unlock itself when the screensaver daemon crashes. ive found that this is also however an issue upstream on debian 8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 966129] Re: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop
This happens to me, as well. I have switched to gnome-screensaver in hopes that it fixes the problem, but unfortunately gnome-screensaver is not configurable under XFCE so I am somewhat dissatisfied. This crash only occurs once every few weeks, so I have not been able to catch it in gdb. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 966129] Re: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop
Since this I've had this issue occur both on 12.04, and 12.10 (and on Mint 14), so this is still an issue. I also don't understand how a crash that unlocks my - specifically locked - screen is NOT a security vulnerability. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/966129 Title: Xscreensaver daemon crash returned to unlocked desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/966129/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
