Description
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-1623)
CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
CVSSv4: 8.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The DOM implementation in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.109 does not properly restrict frame-attach operations from occurring during or after frame-detach operations, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted web site, related to FrameLoader.cpp, HTMLFrameOwnerElement.h, LocalFrame.cpp, and WebLocalFrameImpl.cpp.
2) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-1624)
CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption
CVSSv4: 8.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Integer underflow in the ProcessCommandsInternal function in dec/decode.c in Brotli, as used in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.109, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted data with brotli compression.
