Next info provided on behalf of Crytek CERT:

Due to bug in screenlock implementation in latest Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, it is possible to crash screenlock with a short timeslot in ~1.5 seconds, during which you can interact with programs on desktop.

Requirements:
  2 languages (EN, RU)
  Language switch shortcut: LCtrl+LShift

Steps to reproduce:
  Lock screen with Super+L
  Press LCtrl+LShift to switch language, and during crash of screenlock, right click on desktop to hover context menu - this will expand timeslot up to 3 seconds

Additional info with all available logs will be added.
