Title: pinlock snap decision potentially allows malicious app to gain access to user PIN and Passcode Status in Server and client library for desktop notifications in Unity: Triaged Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Currently the pinlock dialog is implemented as snapdecision and thus any application that is allowed to use the notifications can potentially trick the user to provide his PIN code or Passcode to the application by invoking the pinlock dialog. As we want to allow applications to send normal notifications and snapdecisions we can't just block the whole notify service from them, but also we don't have any means to block just one of them. Thus the only solution is to remove the pinlock from snap decisions completely and implement a standalone dbus service for pinlock dialog which can be properly confined.
