*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

You have been subscribed to a public security bug by Seth Arnold (seth-arnold):

I currently have Ubuntu 12.04 installed, with automatic login enabled,
today when I turned on my computer, to my surprise Ubuntu asked for the
user password, and it doesn't accept my password anymore.

I know for sure I haven't changed my password and no one else used this
computer since my last access.

So I can only expect this to be some bug or a stupid security feature
that doesn't work very well since I lack the ability to foretell what's
the new password going to be.

This is but a personal computer with little sensitive information so I
doubt a cracker would have any interest in accessing it.
