Use after free in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 79.0.3945.130 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page.

The remote CentOS Linux 6 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:0214 advisory.

  - Use after free in speech in Google Chrome prior to 79.0.3945.130 allowed a remote attacker to potentially     exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2020-6378)

  - Use after free in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 79.0.3945.130 allowed a remote attacker to potentially     exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2020-6379)

  - Insufficient policy enforcement in extensions in Google Chrome prior to 79.0.3945.130 allowed a remote     attacker who had compromised the renderer process to bypass site isolation via a crafted Chrome Extension.
    (CVE-2020-6380)

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

An update of the nodejs package has been released.

The version of Microsoft Edge (Chromium) installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 79.0.309.68. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A spoofing vulnerability exists in the Windows CryptAPI due to how it validates Elliptic Curve     Cryptography (ECC) certificates. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by using a spoofed     code-signing certificate to sign a malicious executable, to make the executable appear like it is from a     trusted, legitimate source. (CVE-2020-0601)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the speech component of Google Chrome. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this, via a crafted HTML page, to potentially exploit heap corruption.
    (CVE-2020-6378)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in the V8 component of Google Chrome. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this, via a crafted HTML page, to potentially exploit heap corruption.
    (CVE-2020-6379)

  - An insufficient policy enforcement vulnerability exists in Google Chrome. An authenticated, remote     attacker that has compromised the renderer process can exploit this, via a crafted Chrome Extension, to     bypass site isolation. (CVE-2020-6380)

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