A number of upstream bugfixes are also included in this release.

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is prior to 60.0.3112.78. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error exists in IndexedDB due to     improper handling of cursors during transactions. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5091)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the PPAPI component     that allows unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5092)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in Blink that is triggered     when displaying JavaScript alerts in fullscreen mode. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     spoof components in the user interface. (CVE-2017-5093)

  - A type confusion error exists in the 'Extensions     Bindings' component that is triggered when passing event     filters. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5094)

  - An overflow condition exists in PDFium due to improper     validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of     service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-5095)

  - An unspecified flaw exists related to 'Android intents'     that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to     disclose sensitive user information. (CVE-2017-5096)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in Skia due to     improper handling of verb arrays. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of     service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2017-5097)

  - A use-after-free error exists in Google V8 that allows     an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-5098)

  - An out-of-bounds write error exists in the PPAPI     component that allows an unauthenticated, remote     attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-5099)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the 'Chrome Apps'     component that allows an unauthenticated, remote     attacker to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2017-5100)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in the OmniBox     component that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker     to spoof URLs in the address bar. (CVE-2017-5101,     CVE-2017-5105)

  - Multiple uninitialized memory use flaws exist in Skia     that allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to have     an unspecified impact. (CVE-2017-5102, CVE-2017-5103)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist that allow an     unauthenticated, remote attacker to spoof components in     the user interface. (CVE-2017-5104, CVE-2017-5109)

  - A flaw exists in OmniBox that is triggered as domain     names containing arbitrary Cyrillic letters are rendered     in the address bar. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this, via a specially crafted domain name,     to spoof the URL in the address bar. (CVE-2017-5106)

  - A flaw exists in the SVG filters component due to     improper handling of floating point multiplication. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     timing attack, to extract sensitive user information.
    (CVE-2017-5107)

  - A type confusion error exists in Google V8 that allows     an unauthenticated, remote attacker to have an     unspecified impact. (CVE-2017-5108)

  - An unspecified flaw exists in the Payments dialog that     allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to spoof     components in the user interface. (CVE-2017-5110)

  - A type confusion error exists in SQLite due to improper     validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2017-7000)

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