What is CVE-2006-1335?

The Gnome Screensaver version prior to 2.14 presents a vulnerability where attackers with physical access can exploit the configuration options AllowDeactivateGrabs and AllowClosedownGrabs on an X server. This flaw allows the screensaver to crash when certain keyboard sequences, specifically Ctl+Alt+Keypad-Multiply, are executed, effectively removing the secure grab from the screensaver. This behavior can lead to unauthorized access to the user's session.
