CVE-2013-2190 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. 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.. EPSS estimates a 0.53% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
