That's texture bleeding.
Probably dup of bug 257566.

I just wanted to add that this isn't just about the wobbly effect or translucency. You could also see it when showing the desktop cube, sphere or cylinder with opaque windows and opaque title bars.

A comment on reddit:

> I noticed this on my system and I also notice that when I set the "Scale Method" to "Crisp" in the compositor settings it doesn't seem to happen.
