Description

Power management (Powermanagement) on Solaris 2.4 through 2.6 does not start the xlock process until after the sys-suspend has completed, which allows an attacker with physical access to input characters to the last active application from the keyboard for a short period after the system is restoring, which could lead to increased privileges.
