Descriptions

The extensions subsystem in Google Chrome before 53.0.2785.113 does not properly restrict access to Object.prototype, which allows remote attackers to load unintended resources, and consequently trigger unintended JavaScript function calls and bypass the Same Origin Policy via an indirect interception attack.

El subsistema de extensiones en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 53.0.2785.113 no restringe adecuadamente el acceso a Object.prototype, lo que permite a atacantes remotos cargar recursos no intencionados y consecuentemente desencadenar llamas de función JavaScript no intencionadas y eludir la Same Origin Policy a través de un ataque de interceptación indirecto.
