Descriptions

The Chrome Web Store inline-installation implementation in the Extensions subsystem in Google Chrome before 52.0.2743.82 does not properly consider object lifetimes during progress observation, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted web site.

La implementación de la instalación en línea Chrome Web Store en el subsistema Extensions en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 52.0.2743.82 no considera adecuadamente la vida útil de los objetos durante el progreso de observación, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (uso después de liberación de memoria) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de un sitio web manipulado.
