Integer overflow in the WebGL implementation in Google Chrome before 22.0.1229.79 on Mac OS X allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.

Chromium was upgraded to version 24.0.1290 which fixed multiple security flaws.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201210-07 (Chromium: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Chromium. Please review       the CVE identifiers and release notes referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted web       site using Chromium, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary       code with the privileges of the process, arbitrary file write, a Denial       of Service condition, Cross-Site Scripting in SSL interstitial and       various Universal Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Versions of Google Chrome earlier than 22.0.1229.79 are potentially affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Out-of-bounds write errors exist related to Skia and the PDF viewer. (CVE-2012-2874, CVE-2012-2883, CVE-2012-2895)

  - Various, unspecified errors exist related to the PDF viewer. (CVE-2012-2875)

  - A buffer overflow error exists related to 'SSE2' optimizations. (CVE-2012-2876)

  - An unspecified error exists related to extensions and modal dialogs that can allow application crashes. (CVE-2012-2877)

  - Use-after-free errors exist related to plugin handling, 'onclick' handling, 'SVG' text references and the PDF viewer. (CVE-2012-2878, CVE-2012-2887, CVE-2012-2888, CVE-2012-2890)

  - An error exists related to 'DOM' topology corruption. (CVE-2012-2879)

  - Race conditions exist in the plugin paint buffer. (CVE-2012-2880)

  - 'DOM' tree corruption can occur with plugins. (CVE-2012-2881)

  - A pointer error exists related to 'OGG' container handling. (CVE-2012-2882)- An out-of-bounds read error exists related to Skia. (CVE-2012-2884)

  - The possibility of a double-free error exists related to application exit. (CVE-2012-2885)

  - Universal cross-site scripting issues exist related to the v8 JavaScript engine bindings and frame handling. (CVE-2012-2886, CVE-2012-2889)

  - Address information can be leaked via inter process communication (IPC). (CVE-2012-2891)

  - A bypass error exists related to pop-up block. (CVE-2012-2892)

  - A double-free error exists related to 'XSL' transforms. (CVE-2012-2893)

  - An error exists related to graphics context handling. (CVE-2012-2894)

  - An integer overflow error exists related to 'WebGL'. (CVE-2012-2896)
Successful exploitation of any of these issues could lead to an application crash or even allow arbitrary code execution, subject to the user's privileges.
