Title:
empty autologin-user should not be passed to PAM
Status in Light Display Manager:
Fix Released
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
If autologin-user in lightdm.conf is set to an empty string this should not
be passed on to PAM. At least with the pam_permit module from Linux PAM which
is usually employed for password-less login on Linux setting the username to an
empty string will result in a successful login as the "nobody" user. This is
probably never desirable.
See the attached patch for a proposed fix.
