Google Chrome < 2.0.172.31 WebKit Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 39356

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web browser that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 2.0.172.31. It thus is reportedly affected by multiple issues :

- A memory corruption issue exists in the way the WebKit handles recursion in certain DOM event handlers.
Successful exploitation of this issue could allow arbitrary code execution within the Google Chrome sandbox. (CVE-2009-1690)

- WebKit's handling of drag events is affected by an information disclosure issue. (CVE-2009-1718)

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome 2.0.172.31 or later.
