DISPUTED Xfce4-session 4.5.91 in Xfce does not lock the screen when
the suspend or hibernate button is pressed, which might make it easier for
physically proximate attackers to access an unattended laptop via a resume
action, a related issue to CVE-2010-2532. NOTE: there is no general
agreement that this is a vulnerability, because separate control over
locking can be an equally secure, or more secure, behavior in some threat
environments.

| sbeattie | upstream does not intend to fix this in xfce4-session, but rather via whatever power manager is installed. |
