We're aware of this bug and it is already fixed upstream. In the
meantime you can add a workaround to /etc/environment:
MUTTER_DEBUG_DISABLE_HW_CURSORS=1
and then reboot. This workaround mode is also what the screen recorder
uses.

Title:
Cursor drawn incorrectly on portrait mode
Status in Mutter:
Unknown
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
On 23.10 Ubuntu Mantic Minotaur (development branch). Noticed this
when upgrading to gnome-shell 45~beta.1-0ubuntu2
While the cursor itself behaves normally on portrait mode (I can fully
drag around windows and click on things normally), how it's drawn is
not. It seems like the cursor is being drawn as if the monitor is in
landscape mode? When moving my invisible up and down cursor near the
top of my Portrait Right monitor, the drawn cursor on the top moving
left and right. Moving the cursor to the top of my monitor causes the
drawn one to hit the right side, and moving my cursor downwards causes
the drawn one to go off-screen to the left.
In Portrait Right at least, my monitor is physically vertical but the
"monitor" that the mouse was drawn on is rotated 90 degrees clockwise
with the top right corner aligned.
Notably, the mouse is the correct orientation.
Both the built in screen recorder (when it isn't crashing) and OBS with a
Screen Capture (PipeWire) source both capture the cursor drawn correctly.
