A use after free in Blink in Google Chrome prior to 57.0.2987.133 for Linux, Windows, and Mac, and 57.0.2987.132 for Android, allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:0860 advisory.

    Chromium is an open-source web browser, powered by WebKit (Blink).

    This update upgrades Chromium to version 57.0.2987.133.

    Security Fix(es):

    * Multiple flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious     content could cause Chromium to crash, execute arbitrary code, or disclose sensitive information when     visited by the victim. (CVE-2017-5055, CVE-2017-5052, CVE-2017-5053, CVE-2017-5054, CVE-2017-5056)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201704-02 (Chromium: Multiple vulnerabilities)

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

    A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the       privileges of the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, obtain       sensitive information, or bypass security restrictions.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update to Chromium 57.0.2987.133 fixes the following issues (boo#1031677) :

  - CVE-2017-5055: Use after free in printing

  - CVE-2017-5054: Heap buffer overflow in V8

  - CVE-2017-5052: Bad cast in Blink

  - CVE-2017-5056: Use after free in Blink

  - CVE-2017-5053: Out of bounds memory access in V8

The following packaging changes are included :

  - No longer claim to provide browser(npapi)

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 57.0.2987.133. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type cast error exists in Blink in the     LayoutInline::absoluteVisualRect() function within file     layout/LayoutInline.cpp that allows an unauthenticated,     remote attacker to cause an unspecified impact.
    (CVE-2017-5052)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in V8 in the     IndexOfValueImpl() function template within file     builtins/builtins-array.cc when handling arrays. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     disclose memory content. (CVE-2017-5053)

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in V8 that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5054)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the PrintViewManager     class within file printing/print_view_manager.cc when     handling previews. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to deference already freed memory,     resulting in the execution arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-5055)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the Blink that allows     an unauthenticated, remote attacker to dereference     already freed memory, resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5056)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 57.0.2987.133. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A type cast error exists in Blink in the     LayoutInline::absoluteVisualRect() function within file     layout/LayoutInline.cpp that allows an unauthenticated,     remote attacker to cause an unspecified impact.
    (CVE-2017-5052)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in V8 in the     IndexOfValueImpl() function template within file     builtins/builtins-array.cc when handling arrays. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     disclose memory content. (CVE-2017-5053)

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in V8 that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5054)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the PrintViewManager     class within file printing/print_view_manager.cc when     handling previews. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to deference already freed memory,     resulting in the execution arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-5055)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the Blink that allows     an unauthenticated, remote attacker to dereference     already freed memory, resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5056)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
