2014-04-09 08:25:14 Ritesh Khadgaray description 1. When the password is about to expire, the user will see the message on the login UI very briefly before the desktop appears. It's not actually long enough to read the message 2. Ubuntu 12.04. 3. How reproducible is the problem? Easy 4. Steps to Reproduce: 4.1. Make new user 4.2. Make user account set to expiring with chage tool. 4.3. Login in lightdm. a. Actual Results: A brief message is displayed saying the password is expiring. I can't even read the full message... b. Expected Results: A longer pause, or ideally a message after login saying the password is expiring and asking if they want to change it. 5. Known Workaround: It's a usability bug in some situations and requires resetting the password on a different system in the worse case [1] if the user wasn't proactive at resetting their password. 1.

[Impact] Messages that are shown after authentication is complete are not seen as the greeter immediately closes and the session starts. Examples of messages are warnings that the user password will expire soon. [Test Case] 1. Make new user 2. Make user account set to expiring with chage tool. (pick yesterday for the date here) $ sudo chage -d 2014/04/29 -M 2 <username> 3. Log into this user from the greeter Expected result: User is informed that their password is about to expire. Observed result: Message displayed briefly before greeter closes and session starts. (On fast systems may not be visible at all) [Regression Potential] Since this is a behaviour change in how the UI presents authentication prompts there is a risk that other authentication cases might be adversely affected. Tested manually using the unity-greeter test mode which simulates many of these cases.
