Descriptions
The CSSParser::parseFontFaceSrc function in WebCore/css/CSSParser.cpp in WebKit, as used in Google Chrome before 8.0.552.224, Chrome OS before 8.0.552.343, webkitgtk before 1.2.6, and other products does not properly parse Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted local font, related to "Type Confusion."
Google Chrome anterior v8.0.552.224 y Chrome OS anterior v8.0.552.343 no parsea adecuadamente la secuencia de elementos Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (por lectura fuera de rango) a través de vectores no especificados.
This GLSA contains notification of vulnerabilities found in several Gentoo packages which have been fixed prior to January 1, 2012. The worst of these vulnerabilities could lead to local privilege escalation and remote code execution.
