Descriptions

The ToV8Value function in content/child/v8_value_converter_impl.cc in the V8 bindings in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63 does not properly restrict use of getters and setters, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code.

La función ToV8Value en content/child/v8_value_converter_impl.cc en los vínculos V8 en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 51.0.2704.63 no restringe adecuadamente el uso de captadores y definidores, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación del sistema (uso después de liberación de memoria) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de un código JavaScript manipulado.
