Mac reboots if I hold the mouse button when the screen is locked

[drecc]

I have an M2 Macbook Air, connected to a thunderbolt monitor. I have an Apple Magic Touch ID Keyboard and an Apple Magic Mouse.

If I lock the screen (by tapping the lock button on the keyboard), and then keep the mouse pressed, after a few seconds my monitor flashes bright pink and my Mac reboots.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Thanks

I have same hardware but can't replicate this. Behaviour was rather inconsistent. Tapping the Lock button (=Touch ID button) gets the log in screen, which I didn't know, but sometimes behaved like fast user switching if another user was already logged in. Click and hold mouse mostly just slept the monitor. It never rebooted with a pink screen.

Thanks for trying.

The specific error I get is this:

It looks like other people have this issue, except it happens when they press ESC repeatedly after locking the screen. See here and here
