Attached debdiff between trusty-updates and SRU. ** Branch unlinked: lp:~unity-team/unity/trusty-1305440
** Description changed: + [Impact] + It might be desirable to have a distinct pam config file when logging in and when unlocking the screen. Specifically, using a fingerprint reader is fine for sudo or for unlocking, but you want to use your password when logging in, to provide a secret and be able to unlock the gnome- keyring for example. + + [Test Case] See http://askubuntu.com/questions/445131/how-do-i-enable-a-specific- pam-config-in-the-lockscreen So this feature request is about allowing for a (optional) pam config file for the lock-screen, distinct from the /etc/pam.d/lightdm currently used and shared with the greeter. + + [Regression Potential] + + An additional configuration point could allow a system to be + misconfigured for reduced security. The default configuration is to use + the same PAM stack as the LightDM login process so no new regression is + introduced without user modification. + + [Other Info] + + The Ubuntu 14.04 LTS SRU patch was cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10 where + it has been in production use for a few months and appears stable. ** Patch added: "debdiff between unity_7.2.3+14.04.20140826-0ubuntu1 and unity_7.2.4+14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1305440/+attachment/4289402/+files/unity_7.2.4%2B14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1305440 Title: Allow a distinct pam config file for greeter and for lock-screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1305440/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
