[Bug 1643753] Re: Ubuntu 16.04 local, global menus, CLI contents disappear
To clarify/repeat, I don't intend to imply that a bug which renders both GUI and CLI useless, requiring a reboot, is a security issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643753 Title: Ubuntu 16.04 local, global menus, CLI contents disappear To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1643753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1643753] Re: Ubuntu 16.04 local, global menus, CLI contents disappear
Thank you for providing feedback. I disagree with the assessment since the only (known) way to recover is a reboot, thus it seems conceivable that an attacker who knows how to exploit this issue may be able to deceive a user into an action which may lose data, or perhaps cause them to click on a GUI element that provides other attack vectors.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find. ** Information type changed from Private Security to Public ** Package changed: ubuntu => unity (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643753 Title: Ubuntu 16.04 local, global menus, CLI contents disappear To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1643753/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
