I set the security flag because there's clearly information disclosure here - in this instance it was me logging in to a computer only I had previously used, so I saw items from my own prior sessions. In other circumstances, this might be a shared machine and the person seeing my desktop icons and fragments of windows I had used in prior sessions might be less well-intentioned.
Note also that it is not necessarily only the previous session that is disclosed - there have been instances where I've recognised notification bubbles from several days previous, despite having rebooted in the interim. I shudder to think what might happen if I were to present at a public conference and have fragments of the Ubuntu One source or pages from Canonical's internal wiki flashed on the projector. I urge you to reconsider. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/938555 Title: Display memory is not cleared on reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/938555/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
