The latest time it is saved is when the session is in SESSION_OPENING. This results in a /run/systemd/users/$uid file which contains STATE=online for the current user on the current active VT, which is obviously wrong. As functions like sd_uid_get_state() use this file to get the user’s state, this could result in things like PolicyKit making incorrect decisions about the user’s state. (See <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Please use sd_uid_get_state() to make security decisions, not sd_pid_get_session()" href="show_bug.cgi?id=76358">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76358</a>.) Fix this by re-saving the state for a session’s user after completing the state_job for that session.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
