Google Chrome < 52.0.2743.116 Multiple Vulnerabilities (Mac OS X)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 92792

Synopsis

A web browser installed on the remote Mac OS X host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 52.0.2743.116. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - An overflow condition exists in PDFium due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2016-5139)

 - An overflow condition exists in OpenJPEG due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
 (CVE-2016-5140)

 - A flaw exists that is triggered when nested message loops access documents without generating a notification. An attacker can exploit this to spoof the address bar. (CVE-2016-5141)

 - A use-after-free error exists that allows an attacker to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5142)

 - A flaw exists in the sanitizeRemoteFrontendUrl() function in devtools.js due to a failure to properly sanitize input parameters. An attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2016-5143)

 - A flaw exists in the loadScriptsPromise() function in Runtime.js due to a failure to properly sanitize input parameters. An attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2016-5144)

 - A flaw exists due to improper handling of specially crafted images. An attacker can exploit this to bypass the same-origin policy. (CVE-2016-5145)

 - Multiple unspecified high and medium severity vulnerabilities exist, including an overflow condition in WebRTC due to improper validation user-supplied input when handling RTP packets. An attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5146)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome version 52.0.2743.116 or later.
