Hi,
Lots of our users also tested if the KDE screenlock program is affected
by the "unlock by pressing return" bug.
And it is.
There is also a race condition and/or a memory leak which causes
the lock program to terminate.

Suspend to * is not required, it also works just by pressing return.
For me it takes like 5 seconds. Machine load might help.
It is unclear which KDE versions are affected, reports mostly show
KDE 4.4.0.
Needs a different CVE than the GNOME one.
Ciao, Marcus
