Spoof an Ethernet adapter on USB, and you can sniff credentials from locked laptops

I don't think the logged-in user (presumably you mean one of the possibly several users logged in at the console) is the one running any of the code involved, so I don't think their rights would ever be relevant.

I would hope, however, that blocking unknown USB devices (if practised) would be effective.
