[Bug 1261818] Re: Can't type user password in lightdm
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 128 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128 I would confirm this is a security issue. With this problem when you are typing the focus remains on the desktop. I mean you can open applications, and type commands in a terminal or whatever. The only restricction for a hacker in a locked computer it that he can use only a keyboard and he gets no visual feedback (but that pretty much means that a hacker can do at will). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1261818 Title: Can't type user password in lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1261818/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 128 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128 This bug may be a security issue, because i had the following experience: I was working in a terminal window with elevated privileges when i locked my computer to go for a meeting. When i came back i couldn't log in because LightDM seemd not to capture my keyboard. After some clicking around and trying i finally could log in again and saw that everything i typed was entered in the terminal window as plain text. I hope this gets solved soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1261818 Title: Can't type user password in lightdm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1261818/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1261818] Re: Can't type user password in lightdm
Additional info: if I do a software update which results in me having to restart Ubuntu after the update, the bug is temporarily fixed. What happens is that, following the restart, I can now type straight into the password field on the unity-greeter screen without having to use the mouse workaround described in Comment #6. However, this 'fix' only happens once: the next time I have to log in, I can only type into the password field using my mouse click workaround. This temporary fix has occurred more than once, so it's not just random.

[Workaround] If you right hand click on the password box, then left hand click back into it, input focus is restored and you can now enter your password.
