(Get the code!)
1) Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Beta 2 (nightly build)
2) unity-greeter: Installiert: 0.2.6-0ubuntu1
This bug occures occasionally when logging out from a sessioin - where NO encfs encrypted directory is used. Somehow it's not possible for the greeter to access/acknowledge the wallpaper of the user and crashes. The greeter crashes ENDLESSLY, until you are quick enough, to press the up-/down arrow on the keyboard and switch to the guest session.
If you restart the pc - in the hope, the bug will be gone after restart, you land on the same user after the restart - and the greeter goes on crashing, so restarting the pc is no solution.
Because you access the users setting from the user directory (I know you do it, because encfs let's you not acknowledge the users wallpaper - and change it in the greeter) - and the fact, that this bug crashes the greeter, you might have a possible security vulnerabillity.
