CVE-2014-7300 in Gnome-shellinfo

Zusammenfassung (Englisch)

GNOME Shell 3.14.x before 3.14.1, when the Screen Lock feature is used, does not limit the aggregate memory consumption of all active PrtSc requests, which allows physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary commands on an unattended workstation by making many PrtSc requests and leveraging a temporary lock outage, and the resulting temporary shell availability, caused by the Linux kernel OOM killer.

Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
