thanks

Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for xtrlock.

CVE-2016-10894[0]:
| xtrlock through 2.10 does not block multitouch events. Consequently,
| an attacker at a locked screen can send input to (and thus control)
| various programs such as Chromium via events such as pan scrolling,
| "pinch and zoom" gestures, or even regular mouse clicks (by depressing
| the touchpad once and then clicking with a different finger).

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
