Which files, when missing, cause this to happen? Can you provide strace
output of the failing process?
This seems unlikely to be due to PAM, which has fairly well exercised

Yes, the bug is exploitable even with full disk encryption. Among other things,
if there's an open instant messaging app, an attacker can send a message which
would appear as if it was sent by the authenticated user.

Jonathan, please file a new bug against xfce's screenlocking package
with instructions for reproducing, hopefully someone will know how to
address it.
Paul, this issue is likely to affect far more than just Ubuntu,
programmers are in general not expecting IO errors at every syscall
