Descriptions
PDFium, as used in Google Chrome before 44.0.2403.89, does not properly handle certain out-of-memory conditions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PDF document that triggers a large memory allocation.
Vulnerabilidad en PDFium implementado en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a la 44.0.2403.89, no maneja correctamente ciertas condiciones de out-of-memory, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio mediante un desbordamiento de buffer basado en memoria dinámica o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través un documento PDF manipulado que desencadena una asignación de memoria de gran tamaño.
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. All Chromium users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Chromium version 44.0.2403.89, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Chromium must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
