The right way to fix this "securely" is to make the password and
fingerprints required, both of them. Then you can unlock the keyring,
log into WPA protected wifi, connect samba shares and so on.

Anything else is security theater.  The odds are pretty good, especially
on a tabletPC or laptop, that there's a recoverable fingerprint on the
LCD screen.  This is the fingerprint equivalent of the password on a
stickynote attached to the monitor, except you do it without even
trying.
