What is CVE-2012-3452?

The vulnerability in gnome-screensaver affects versions 3.4.x prior to 3.4.4 and 3.5.x prior to 3.5.4. When using multiple screens, the application only locks the screen that currently has active focus, allowing physically nearby attackers to bypass the screen lock. This oversight can lead to unauthorized access to user data on unattended workstations, potentially compromising sensitive information.
