Description

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5089 advisory.

- Use after free in Chrome OS Shell in Google Chrome on Chrome OS prior to 99.0.4844.51 allowed a remote attacker who convinced a user to engage in a series of user interaction to potentially exploit heap corruption via user interactions. (CVE-2022-0808)

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

Solution

Upgrade the chromium packages.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 99.0.4844.51-1~deb11u1.
