Descriptions

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google V8 before 4.9.385.26, as used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75, allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors.

Múltiples vulnerabilidades no especificadas en Google V8 en versiones anteriores a 4.9.385.26, tal como se utiliza en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 49.0.2623.75, permiten a atacantes provocar una denegación de servicio o posiblemente tener otro impacto a través de vectores desconocidos.

It was discovered that the ContainerNode::parserRemoveChild function in Blink mishandled widget updates in some circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass same-origin restrictions. It was discovered that the PPB_Flash_MessageLoop_Impl::InternalRun function in Chromium mishandled nested message loops. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass same-origin restrictions. Various other issues were also addressed.
