Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 49.0.2623.108. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - An out-of-bounds read error exists in Google V8 that allows an attacker to crash the application, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2016-1646)

 - A use-after-free error exists in the Navigation component that allows an attacker to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1647)

 - A use-after-free error exists in the Extensions component that allows an attacker to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1648)

 - An overflow condition exists in libANGLE due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1649)

 - An unspecified flaw exists in the pageCapture extension that allows an attacker to have an unspecified impact.
 (CVE-2016-1650)

 - A denial of service vulnerability exists in PDFium due to improper handling of file names. An attacker can exploit this to crash the application, resulting in a denial of service.

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome version 49.0.2623.108 or later.
