Descriptions

Use-after-free vulnerability in the Pepper plugins in Google Chrome before 39.0.2171.65 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted Flash content that triggers an attempted PepperMediaDeviceManager access outside of the object's lifetime.

Vulnerabilidad de uso después de liberación en los plugins Pepper en Google Chrome anterior a 39.0.2171.65 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través del contenido de un Flash manipulado que provoca un intento de acceso a PepperMediaDeviceManager fuera del curso de la vida del objeto.

Chromium is an open-source web browser, powered by WebKit. Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Chromium to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Chromium. A flaw was found in the way Chromium parsed certain URL values. A malicious attacker could use this flaw to perform phishing attacks.
