- A buffer overflow vulnerability exists when capitalization style changes occur during CSS parsing.

- An out-of-bounds write error exists when processing invalid tile sizes in 'WebM' format videos that result in arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-1578)
- A use-after-free error exists in the 'DirectionalityUtils' component when text direction is used in the text layout that results in arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-1581)
- Multiple issues exist in WebRTC when the session is running within an 'iframe' element that will allow the session to be accessible even when sharing is stopped and when returning to the website. This could lead to video inadvertently being shared. (CVE-2014-1585, CVE-2014-1586)
