fix: drop pam_acct_mgmt from password and FP paths (v0.6.13)
The PAM stack only ever had `auth include login` — no account module.
auth.rs nevertheless called pam_acct_mgmt after pam_authenticate, which
fell back to /etc/pam.d/other (pam_deny) and rejected every password.
On the FP side, the same call was wrapped in a spawn_blocking + 2s
resume_async retry path that triggered a use-after-free in
gtk_window_destroy (20+ SIGSEGVs in 6 days).

- auth.rs: remove pam_acct_mgmt extern + call; return pam_authenticate
  result directly. Lockout still works via pam_faillock in the auth stack.
- auth.rs: drop check_account() and its tests (FP path no longer needs it).
- lockscreen.rs::start_fingerprint: on success go straight to
  label.set_text + fp.stop() + cb(); no PAM acct check, no resume retry.
- fingerprint.rs: remove resume_async() — no caller left.
- config/moonlock-pam: keep single `auth include login` line, matching
  swaylock/gtklock pattern.
- CLAUDE.md, DECISIONS.md updated.

Moonlock

A secure Wayland lockscreen with GTK4, PAM authentication and fingerprint support. Part of the Moonarch ecosystem.

Features

  • ext-session-lock-v1 — Protocol-guaranteed screen locking (compositor keeps screen locked on crash, exit(1) in release if unsupported)
  • PAM authentication — Uses system PAM stack (/etc/pam.d/moonlock) with 30s timeout and generation counter
  • Fingerprint unlock — fprintd D-Bus integration with sender validation, async init (window appears instantly), pam_acct_mgmt check after verify, auto-resume on transient errors
  • Multi-monitor + hotplug — Lockscreen on every monitor with shared blur and avatar caches; monitors added after suspend/resume get windows automatically via connect_monitor signal
  • GPU blur — Background blur via GskBlurNode (downscale to max 1920px, configurable 0200)
  • i18n — German and English (auto-detected)
  • Faillock warning — Progressive UI warning after failed attempts, PAM decides lockout
  • Panic safety — Panic hook logs but never unlocks (installed before logging)
  • Password wipingZeroize on drop from GTK entry through PAM FFI layer
  • Journal loggingjournalctl -t moonlock, debug level via MOONLOCK_DEBUG env var

Requirements

  • GTK 4
  • gtk4-session-lock (ext-session-lock-v1 support)
  • PAM (/etc/pam.d/moonlock)
  • Optional: fprintd for fingerprint support

Building

cargo build --release

Installation

# Install binary
sudo install -Dm755 target/release/moonlock /usr/bin/moonlock

# Install PAM config
sudo install -Dm644 config/moonlock-pam /etc/pam.d/moonlock

# Optional: Install example config
sudo install -Dm644 config/moonlock.toml.example /etc/moonlock/moonlock.toml.example

Configuration

Create /etc/moonlock/moonlock.toml or ~/.config/moonlock/moonlock.toml:

background_path = "/usr/share/wallpapers/moon.jpg"
background_blur = 40.0    # 0.0200.0, optional
fingerprint_enabled = true

Usage

Typically launched via keybind in your Wayland compositor:

# Niri keybind example
binds {
    Mod+L { spawn "moonlock"; }
}

Development

cargo test
cargo build --release
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libgtk4-layer-shell.so ./target/release/moonlock
