Security bug allows to kill screenlocker used to lock screen and ask password to unlock, if a preson has physical access to keyboard. This feature (as in links below) was introduced and then removed in 2008, in 2011 it was reintroduced, but not documented and turned on by default. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. use screensaver/screenlocker, which asks password to unlock (for example, KDE or Gnome's ones) 2. press Ctrl + Alt + * (the star from Numpad) Actual Results: screensaver/screenlocker gets killed Expected Results: screensaver/screenlocker should not get killed https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28003 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTA0NTA http://gu1.aeroxteam.fr/2012/01/19/bypass-screensaver-locker-program-xorg-111-and-up/ Please fix this bug and mask xorg-server-1.11 while fixing or waiting for upstream fix (if there is going to be one). I didn't test it with xorg-server-1.10, but previous links says it's unaffected. Bug tested with xorg-server-1.11.2-r2.
