I can reproduce it here.

But this is about the "Underline" cursor, you need to switch to that in the
profile settings (Advanced tab->Cursor Shape).

The cursor seems to be rendered slightly wrong since anti-aliasing was
introduced, and that likely causes the "lingering" artifact.

The standard block cursor had a similar problem but that was fixed in 18.12.1
with
https://cgit.kde.org/konsole.git/commit/?h=Applications/18.12&id=b48ecb5712037027e6385515c9eced7fabfc3dc3

And the "I-Beam" cursor is also still rendered wrong, although that doesn't
seem to cause any artifacts here.

Yes, it does happen with compositing on here.

Btw, this is probably a duplicate of bug#402589 I think.
