How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 clutter-1.0 to version 1.14.4-3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream clutter-1.0 package and not the clutter-1.0 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

The translate_hierarchy_event function in x11/clutter-device-manager-xi2.c in Clutter, when resuming the system, does not properly handle XIQueryDevice errors when a device has "disappeared," which causes the gnome-shell to crash and allows physically proximate attackers to access the previous gnome-shell session via unspecified vectors.
