Hi, Lots of our users also tested if the KDE screenlock program is affected by the "unlock by pressing return" bug. And it is. There is also a race condition and/or a memory leak which causes the lock program to terminate. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=579280 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217882 http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226449 Suspend to * is not required, it also works just by pressing return. For me it takes like 5 seconds. Machine load might help. It is unclear which KDE versions are affected, reports mostly show KDE 4.4.0. Needs a different CVE than the GNOME one. Ciao, Marcus
