Descriptions

Integer overflow in international date handling in International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ before 60.1, as used in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 63.0.3239.84 and other products, allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page.

Un desbordamiento de enteros en el manejo de fechas internacionales en International Components for Unicode (ICU) for C/C++ en versiones anteriores a la 60.1, tal y como se emplea en V8 en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a la 63.0.3239.84 y otros productos, permitía que un atacante remoto realizase una lectura de memoria fuera de límites mediante una página HTML manipulada.
