gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock and gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock
are two different packages. The -ubuntu-dock one is the one installed by
default and the bug has already been fixed there. The fix has not yet
been released in gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock.

Title:
gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock: Dock accessible from lock screen
Status in gnome-shell-extension-dashtodock package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The dock sometimes appears on the lock screen, and it is possible to
start a program from the lock screen without logging in when this
happens, although it is not possible to interact with it once it has
started.
I haven't reported it as a security vulnerability because it would
take an exception set of circumstances for that to be the case, but
there is the potential for a security issue when you can start a
program without logging in.
In the attached photo the icons are ghosted as well. I haven't
actually seen this behaviour since the photo was taken, so I assume a
subsequent update has fixed whatever was causing that.
Clearly I have used a photo because you can't take a screen grab,
although I am curious as to whether it would be possible to have a
screen grab app on the dock and use that to capture directly from the
screen!
