Google Chrome < 43.0.2357.134 Multiple RCE Vulnerabilities

critical Nessus Plugin ID 84731

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 43.0.2357.134. It is, therefore, affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities in the bundled version of Adobe Flash :

- A use-after-free error exists in the opaqueBackground class in the ActionScript 3 (AS3) implementation. A remote attacker, via specially crafted Flash content, can dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5122)

- A use-after-free error exists in the BitmapData class in the ActionScript 3 (AS3) implementation. A remote attacker, via specially crafted Flash content, can dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-5123)

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome 43.0.2357.134 or later.
