Title:
Virtualbox steals password from lock screen
Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I just experienced some really troubling behavior from the Ubuntu lock screen:
I had been working in a VirtualBox virtual machine (running Windows 10, if
that matters) and after being away from the computer for a while, Ubuntu locked
the screen. When I entered my password and confirmed it with return, the lock
screen went away and I was surprised to see my password in a terminal I had had
open in the virtual machine.
When I tried to close the VirtualBox window, Ubuntu went back to the lock
screen. I was not using full-screen mode in VirtualBox.
Here are the installed versions of the relevant packages:
virtualbox-5.0: 5.0.20-106931~Ubuntu~xenial
gnome-screensaver: 3.6.1-7ubuntu5
lightdm: 1.19.5-0ubuntu1
This happened on Ubuntu 16.10 with an x86_64 4.8.0-27-generic kernel.
