==========================
=========

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 9.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 9.10:
gnome-screensaver 2.28.0-0ubuntu3.1

After a standard system upgrade you need to restart your session to effect
the necessary changes.

Details follow:

he
screen not being automatically locked after the inactivity timeout is
reached, permitting an attacker with physical access to gain access to an
unlocked session.
