Hi all,

Check attached snapshots.
I can right click and toggle fullscreen in firefox and can go anywhere.
It is risky.

Why don't you guys consider using python GUI?

The subject you are referring here is not a security issue but a clear cut case of disabling keys which will be done with the bug id . Also it is agreeable that you should have not been allowed access to terminal and closing full-screen window etc. which will be fixed.  But in essence all live cd's or installation cd's have "root" access.  If you have physical access to the box then its necessarily a sysadmins prerogative to not do "rm -rf /*" unless the idea is not to use the system. But if you see any root exploit or directory traversals from "webui" through a remote machine which could be considered as a security hole.
