"It was discovered that there was an issue around revealing passwords
in the 'gnome-shell' component of the GNOME desktop.

In certain configurations, when logging out of an account the password
box from the login dialog could reappear with the password visible in
cleartext.

For Debian 9 'Stretch', this problem has been fixed in version
3.22.3-3+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnome-shell packages.

For the detailed security status of gnome-shell please refer to its
security tracker page at:

block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
