X will crash and/or restart, and the login screen will be presented again. + Notice that X now runs on tty7, and tty1 now shows the usual getty login prompt. I've successfully reproduced this at least 10 times. The bug dosen't seem to be in effect after the first X restart. I've also noticed random/garbage text on tty1 after X had restarted. This text is clearly console input data, as the getty responds to it with a 'Password:' prompt. Here's an example of the text (seen after 'login:' prompt): - 164*888888888<6'( + 164*888888888<6'( It's clear that at least one other character string can trigger the same bug (has the same effect). The string above just happened to be part of one of my passwords - that is how I initially discovered this: X - crashing everytime I tried logging in to particular service. + crashing everytime I tried logging in to a particular service.
