I believe this bug affects security, given that it is a failure of Ubuntu to perform a "Session Lock". E.g. this is from NIST Special Publication 800-53 (Rev. 4):
https://nvd.nist.gov/800-53/Rev4/control/AC-11 The information system: a. Prevents further access to the system by initiating a session lock after [Assignment: organization-defined time period] of inactivity or upon receiving a request from a user; and b. Retains the session lock until the user reestablishes access using established identification and authentication procedures. The name has been changed from "Session Lock" to "Device Lock" in Rev 5 (draft, 2017), but it's still listed there for the sake of best practices. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1798615 Title: suspend does not lock in 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1798615/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
