The weakness is caused due to an error in xscreensaver when the X Resize and Rotate (RandR) extension is loaded, which may allow to view parts of a locked screen if the screen has been resized. NOTE: Only systems that use the Xorg X server (or Xnewt X server for Sun Ray servers) are affected. The weakness is reported in Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris for the SPARC and x86 platforms. SOLUTION: Apply patches. -- SPARC Platform -- Solaris 10: Apply patch 120094-26 or later. OpenSolaris: Fixed in build snv_112 or later. -- x86 Platform -- Solaris 10: Apply patch 120095-26 or later.
