Description of problem: If someone steals my laptop while it is suspended, my password lets them read my encrypted email and send signed messages that impersonate me. They can also log into my machines. This goes against my usage of different passphrases for ssh, gpg and machines. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.8 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start a GNOME session 2. ssh to a machine using your public key 3. suspend and resume (or hibernate and resume) 4. ssh to a machine using your public key Actual results: Steps 2 prompts for the passphrase. Expected results: Steps 2 and 4 prompt for the passphrase. Additional info: The same behavior is present for the GPG agent. The GNOME keyring is locked/unlocked at suspend/resume.
If you enable 'Screen Lock' in gnome-control-center's 'Privacy' settings, your thief wont have access to anything unless they know your password.
It is enabled already, of course. But my GPG passphrase is different from my password for a reason. If people have gotten my password by looking over my shoulder, they won't be able to impersonate me in signed pull requests, for example. (Stealing my password over my shoulder is much easier than stealing my GPG key, since I use the GPG key much less).
