You can either report privately to the Debian security team (team@security.deb<br class="gmail_msg">
<a href="http://ian.org" rel="noreferrer" class="gmail_msg" target="_blank">ian.org</a>) or open a launchpad bug and tag it security (so it will be private).<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Note that dm-tool lock won't actually lock anything but (as indicated in the<br class="gmail_msg">
manpage) switch to a greeter with a hint that the screen is locked. If you<br class="gmail_msg">
don't have something doing the actual lock (like light-locker) then nothing<br class="gmail_msg">
will happen.<br class="gmail_msg">
