Descriptions

The AllowCrossRendererResourceLoad function in extensions/browser/url_request_util.cc in Google Chrome before 53.0.2785.89 on Windows and OS X and before 53.0.2785.92 on Linux does not properly use an extension's manifest.json web_accessible_resources field for restrictions on IFRAME elements, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct clickjacking attacks, and trick users into changing extension settings, via a crafted web site, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-5162.

La función AllowCrossRendererResourceLoad en extensions/browser/url_request_util.cc en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 53.0.2785.89 en Windows y SO X y en versiones anteriores a 53.0.2785.92 en Linux no se utiliza adecuadamente el campo web_accessible_resources en la extensión manifest.json para restricciones en elementos IFRAME, lo que facilita a atacantes remotos llevar a cabo ataques de clickjacking y engañar a usuarios para cambiar ajustes de extensión, a través de un sitio web manipulado, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2016-5162.
