Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.34%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

gnome screensaver before 2.14, when running on an X server with AllowDeactivateGrabs and AllowClosedownGrabs enabled, allows attackers with physical access to cause the screensaver to crash and access the session via the Ctl+Alt+Keypad-Multiply keyboard sequence, which removes the grab from gnome.
