disable automounting while screen is locked
On the recent Shmoocon there was a presentation by Jon Larimer demonstrating how to abuse vulnerabilities and bugs, or even just creating socially or security compromising thumbnails in mounting and thumbnailing, which happens o automounting USB drives. This is a particular issue when this happens on a locked box where the attacker doesn't otherwise have access to the user account: http://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=10544 Disable automounting if the GNOME screen saver is currently locked. Backported from gnome-settings-daemon trunk commits 71deedf7 and 90c0f8676. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=642020
