Google Chrome 'WebKit' Multiple Vulnerabilities (Linux) - Sep 10
Summary:
Check for the version of Google Chrome
Description:
Overview: This host is installed with Google Chrome and is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Vulnerability Insight: The flaws are due to: - Error in 'toAlphabetic' function in 'rendering/RenderListMarker.cpp' in WebCore in WebKit. - Error in 'page/Geolocation.cpp' which does stop timers associated with geolocation upon deletion of a document. - Memory corruption in 'font' handling. - Error in 'editing/markup.cpp' which fails to validate input passed to 'innerHTML' property of textarea. - Error in 'third_party/WebKit/WebCore/dom/Element.cpp' in 'Element::normalizeAttributes()' resulting in DOM mutation events being fired. - 'Clipboard::DispatchObject' function which does not properly handle 'CBF_SMBITMAP objects' in a 'ViewHostMsg_ClipboardWriteObjectsAsync' message which lead to illegal memory accesses and arbitrary execution related to 'Type Confusion' issue. - Error in 'rendering/FixedTableLayout.cpp' which leads to denial of service - 'Cross-origin bypass' in DOM methods. - Error in 'page/EventHandler.cpp' causes Cross-origin keystroke redirection.
Impact: Successful exploitation will allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service, cross-site-scripting and execution of arbitrary code.
Impact Level: Application
Affected Software/OS: Google Chrome version prior to 5.0.375.70 on Linux
