Use-after-free vulnerability in the RenderBlock::addChildIgnoringAnonymousColumnBlocks function in core/rendering/RenderBlock.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 34.0.1847.116, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors involving addition of a child node.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201408-16 (Chromium: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    A remote attacker could conduct a number of attacks which include: cross       site scripting attacks, bypassing of sandbox protection,  potential       execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process, or cause       a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This chromium version update fixes the following security and non-security issues :

  - Add patch chromium-fix-arm-skia-memset.patch to resolve     a linking issue on ARM with regards to missing symbols.

  - Add patch arm_use_gold.patch to use the right gold     binaries on ARM. Hopefully this resolves the build     issues with running out of memory

  - bnc#872805: Update to Chromium 34.0.1847.116

  - Responsive Images and Unprefixed Web Audio

  - Import supervised users onto new computers

  - A number of new apps/extension APIs 

  - Lots of under the hood changes for stability and     performance 

  - Security fixes :

  - CVE-2014-1716: UXSS in V8

  - CVE-2014-1717: OOB access in V8

  - CVE-2014-1718: Integer overflow in compositor

  - CVE-2014-1719: Use-after-free in web workers

  - CVE-2014-1720: Use-after-free in DOM

  - CVE-2014-1721: Memory corruption in V8

  - CVE-2014-1722: Use-after-free in rendering

  - CVE-2014-1723: Url confusion with RTL characters

  - CVE-2014-1724: Use-after-free in speech

  - CVE-2014-1725: OOB read with window property

  - CVE-2014-1726: Local cross-origin bypass

  - CVE-2014-1727: Use-after-free in forms

  - CVE-2014-1728: Various fixes from internal audits,     fuzzing and other initiatives

  - CVE-2014-1729: Multiple vulnerabilities in V8 

  - No longer build against system libraries as that     Chromium works a lot better and crashes less on websites     than with system libs

  - Added package depot_tools.tar.gz as that the chromium     build now requires it during the initial build phase. It     just contains some utilities and nothing from it is     being installed.

  - If people want to install newer versions of the ffmpeg     library then let them. This is what they want.

  - Remove the buildscript from the sources

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the chromium web browser.

  - CVE-2014-1716     A cross-site scripting issue was discovered in the v8     JavaScript library.

  - CVE-2014-1717     An out-of-bounds read issue was discovered in the v8     JavaScript library.

  - CVE-2014-1718     Aaron Staple discovered an integer overflow issue in     chromium's software compositor.

  - CVE-2014-1719     Colin Payne discovered a use-after-free issue in the web     workers implementation.

  - CVE-2014-1720     cloudfuzzer discovered a use-after-free issue in the     Blink/Webkit document object model implementation.

  - CVE-2014-1721     Christian Holler discovered a memory corruption issue in     the v8 JavaScript library.

  - CVE-2014-1722     miaubiz discovered a use-after-free issue in block     rendering.

  - CVE-2014-1723     George McBay discovered a url spoofing issue. 

  - CVE-2014-1724     Atte Kettunen discovered a use-after-free issue in     freebsoft's libspeechd library.

  Because of this issue, the text-to-speech feature is now disabled by   default ('--enable-speech-dispatcher' at the command-line can   re-enable it).

  - CVE-2014-1725     An out-of-bounds read was discovered in the base64     implementation.

  - CVE-2014-1726     Jann Horn discovered a way to bypass the same origin     policy. 

  - CVE-2014-1727     Khalil Zhani discovered a use-after-free issue in the     web color chooser implementation.

  - CVE-2014-1728     The Google Chrome development team discovered and fixed     multiple issues with potential security impact.

  - CVE-2014-1729     The Google Chrome development team discovered and fixed     multiple issues in version 3.24.35.22 of the v8     JavaScript library.

    (CVE-2014-1716)
