Descriptions

WebKit/Source/core/layout/LayoutBlock.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75, does not properly determine when anonymous block wrappers may exist, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect cast and assertion failure) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code.

WebKit/Source/core/layout/LayoutBlock.cpp en Blink, tal como se utiliza en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 49.0.2623.75, no determina adecuadamente cuándo pueden existir wrappers de bloqueo anónimos, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (proyección incorrecta y fallo de aserción) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de código JavaScriprt manipulado.
