    UBUNTU-CVE-2008-7320

    Published: 18 Nov 2018Last Modified: 18 Nov 2018

    Summary:

    Details: ** DISPUTED ** GNOME Seahorse through 3.30 allows physically proximate attackers to read plaintext passwords by using the quickAllow dialog at an unattended workstation, if the keyring is unlocked. NOTE: this is disputed by a software maintainer because the behavior represents a design decision.
