Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2013-10-24 00:29:58 UTC
CVE-2013-2190 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-2190):
  The translate_hierarchy_event function in x11/clutter-device-manager-xi2.c
  in Clutter, when resuming the system, does not properly handle XIQueryDevice
  errors when a device has "disappeared," which causes the gnome-shell to
  crash and allows physically proximate attackers to access the previous
  gnome-shell session via unspecified vectors.
