VCID-35uj-bty2-aaac Aliases: CVE-2020-17489	An issue was discovered in certain configurations of GNOME gnome-shell through 3.36.4. When logging out of an account, the password box from the login dialog reappears with the password still visible. If the user had decided to have the password shown in cleartext at login time, it is then visible for a brief moment upon a logout. (If the password were never shown in cleartext, only the password length is revealed.)	3.36.4-1ubuntu1~20.04.2 Affected by 0 other vulnerabilities.
VCID-dmp9-4dsk-aaaa Aliases: CVE-2019-3820	It was discovered that the gnome-shell lock screen since version 3.15.91 did not properly restrict all contextual actions. An attacker with physical access to a locked workstation could invoke certain keyboard shortcuts, and potentially other actions.	3.28.3+git20190124-0ubuntu18.04.2 Affected by 1 other vulnerability.

VCID-h27m-268d-aaas Aliases: CVE-2017-8288	gnome-shell 3.22 through 3.24.1 mishandles extensions that fail to reload, which can lead to leaving extensions enabled in the lock screen. With these extensions, a bystander could launch applications (but not interact with them), see information from the extensions (e.g., what applications you have opened or what music you were playing), or even execute arbitrary commands. It all depends on what extensions a user has enabled. The problem is caused by lack of exception handling in js/ui/extensionSystem.js.	3.24.2-0ubuntu6 Affected by 2 other vulnerabilities.
