Reproduction:

1. Click on a badge you have unlocked then go back to your profile.
2. A checkmark appears in your profile as unintended.
3. If you click another one’s profile while looking at badges, checkmarks will appear in those locations as well.

This is a purely visual bug, this is why I put it in #Contribute > UX
