Title:
Unlock dialog for VeraCrypt volumes closes without error message when
wrong password entered
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Noble:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
1. Ensure that udisks2 supports unlocking TCRYPT devices:
sudo touch /etc/udisks2/tcrypt.conf && sudo systemctl restart udisks2
2. Ensure that auto-mounting is enabled:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount true
3. Attach a VeraCrypt file container:
udisksctl loop-setup --file veracrypt-container.hc
4. GNOME Shell opens the unlock dialog. Enter an incorrect password and try
to unlock.
5. The unlock dialog just closes.
The password should have been asked again.
Coming from https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/7631
[ Test case ]
1. Create a VeraCrypt volume in a file
DISK=/tmp/veracrypt.img
dd if=/dev/zero of="$DISK" bs=1M count=10
DEV=$(sudo losetup --find --show "$DISK")
sudo zuluCrypt-cli -c -t vcrypt -p test -d "$DEV"
sudo losetup --detach "$DEV"
2. Ensure that udisks2 supports unlocking TCRYPT devices:
sudo touch /etc/udisks2/tcrypt.conf && sudo systemctl restart udisks2
3. Ensure that auto-mounting is enabled:
dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount true
4. Attach the VeraCrypt file container:
udisksctl loop-setup --file "$DISK"
5. GNOME Shell opens the unlock dialog. Enter an incorrect password
and try to unlock.
6. See that the password gets asked again.
7. Enter the correct password
8. See that the volume is correctly automounted and the password is
not prompted for again.
[ Regression potential ]
Password is not asked again when trying to unlock other kind of
encrypted devices.
