Description

This security bulletin contains information about 10 vulnerabilities.


1) Type confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-5070)

CWE-ID: CWE-843 - Type confusion

CVSSv4: 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/E:A/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion flaw in the V8 component of the Chromium browser. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger a type confusion condition and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-5071)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
