I'm not sure there is a security issue here.

Being in the noasswdlogin group means you can login without a password.
Currently, the lock screen _does_ ask for a password, which is possibly contrary to expectations, since anyone can step up to the computer and simply reboot it.

I believe the bug is actually the fact that the lock screen does ask for a password.
