Summary0007237: Bypassing the Login Page
Description

I have an issue with the login page. When Kali is in asleep mode, the screen is locked. If you suddenly fire up (power on) Kali, sometimes the login page will be bypassed!

Steps To Reproduce

You must select a password for your Kali and use Gnome

-Go to the Power Off / Log Out section
-Select Suspend
-Fire up (Power on) Kali

Additional Information

Linux version 5.10.0-kali7-amd64 ([email protected]) (gcc-10 (Debian 10.2.1-6) 10.2.1 20210110, GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.35.2) 0000001 SMP Debian 5.10.28-1kali1 (2021-04-12)

Can you please check Settings > Privacy > Screen Lock?
Is Automatic Screen Lock Delay set to something like 5 minutes?
If it is, try switching to "Screen Turns Off", and confirm that the screen stays locked.
Also make sure to tweak Settings > Power accordingly/if needed.

What I'm suspecting is that your screen remains "unlocked" for X amount of time, and you might happen to be waking up your computer before that time has passed.
If that's the case, please make sure to leave an update so that the issue can be closed.
