It's most likely one of the empathy accounts, because IIRC all other
account plugins use OAuth, whose re-authentication screen looks very
different from this.

It's very strange that this happened: when signon-ui is requested to
show a dialog, it shows it only if it's given a X window ID to parent it
to; otherwise, no dialog is shown and you'll see an OSD notification
instead. Unless it was unable to dispatch the message to the indicator.

Can you please check if "com.canonical.indicators.webcredentials" is an
active (or activatable) D-Bus service in your session (you could use
d-feet for this)?

Status in signon-ui package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I was just doing Netflix and chill, when signon-ui created the
  attached dialog apparently out of the blue.

  What is it asking me to give credentials for, and why?
