The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 44.0.2403.89. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An uninitialized memory read flaw exists in ICU that an     attacker can exploit to have unspecified impact.
    (CVE-2015-1270)

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in PDFium due to     improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker     can exploit this to execute arbitrary code or cause a     denial of service. (CVE-2015-1271, CVE-2015-1273)

  - A use-after-free memory error exists when the GPU     process is unexpectedly terminated. An attacker can     exploit this to have an unspecified impact.
    (CVE-2015-1272)

  - The settings for automatic downloading of files allows     EXE files to be auto-opened, which can result in the     execution of malicious code. (CVE-2015-1274)

  - A universal cross-site scripting (UXSS) vulnerability     exists in Google Chrome for Android due to improper     validation of 'intent://' URLs. An attacker, using a     specially crafted request, can exploit this to execute     arbitrary script code. (CVE-2015-1275)

  - A use-after-free memory error exists in IndexedDB that     can allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-1276)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to a     use-after-free memory error in the method     ui::AXTree::Unserialize. An attacker can exploit this to     cause a crash. (CVE-2015-1277)

  - An unspecified flaw exists when handling PDF files that     allows an attacker to spoof URLs. (CVE-2015-1278)

  - An integer overflow condition exists in the method     CJBig2_Image::expand() in file JBig2_Image.cpp due to     improper validation of user-supplied input. An attacker     can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow,     resulting in a denial of service or the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-1279)

  - A flaw exists in Google Skia due to improper validation     of user-supplied input, which an attacker can exploit to     corrupt memory or execute arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2015-1280)

  - An unspecified flaw exists that allows an attacker to     bypass the Content Security Policy. (CVE-2015-1281)

  - A use-after-free memory error exists in PDFium in the     file javascript/Document.cpp. An attacker, using a     crafted file, can exploit this to execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2015-1282)

    (CVE-2015-1286)

  - A flaw exists in WebKit related to the handling of     the quirks-mode exception for CSS MIME types, which     allows an attacker to bypass the cross-origin policy.
    (CVE-2015-1287)

  - A flaw exists in file spellcheck_hunspell_dictionary.cc,     related to the downloading of spellchecker dictionaries     over HTTP, which allows a man-in-the-middle to corrupt     the downloaded dictionaries. (CVE-2015-1288)

  - Multiple vulnerabilities exist that were disclosed by     internal auditing, fuzzing, and other initiatives,     which can result in a denial of service, execution of     arbitrary code, or other moderate to severe impact.

Updated chromium-browser packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Supplementary.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

Chromium is an open source web browser, powered by WebKit (Blink).

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Chromium to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Chromium. (CVE-2015-1271, CVE-2015-1270, CVE-2015-1272, CVE-2015-1273, CVE-2015-1274, CVE-2015-1276, CVE-2015-1277, CVE-2015-1278, CVE-2015-1279, CVE-2015-1281, CVE-2015-1282, CVE-2015-1283, CVE-2015-1284, CVE-2015-1285, CVE-2015-1286, CVE-2015-1287, CVE-2015-1288, CVE-2015-1289, CVE-2015-5605)

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2677-1 advisory.

    An uninitialized value issue was discovered in ICU. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-1270)

    A use-after-free was discovered in the GPU process implementation in Chromium. If a user were tricked in     to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of     service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the     program. (CVE-2015-1272)

    A use-after-free was discovered in the IndexedDB implementation in Chromium. If a user were tricked in to     opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of     service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the     program. (CVE-2015-1276)

    A use-after-free was discovered in the accessibility implemetation in Chromium. If a user were tricked in     to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of     service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the     program. (CVE-2015-1277)

    A memory corruption issue was discovered in Skia. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted     website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via renderer crash, or     execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the sandboxed render process. (CVE-2015-1280)

    It was discovered that Blink did not properly determine the V8 context of a microtask in some     circumstances. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could     potentially exploit this to bypass Content Security Policy (CSP) restrictions. (CVE-2015-1281)

    Multiple integer overflows were discovered in Expat. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via application     crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2015-1283)

    It was discovered that Blink did not enforce a page's maximum number of

    frames in some circumstances, resulting in a use-after-free. If a user were tricked in to opening a     specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via     renderer crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the sandboxed render process.
    (CVE-2015-1284)

    It was discovered that the XSS auditor in Blink did not properly choose a truncation point. If a user were     tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to obtain     sensitive information. (CVE-2015-1285)

    An issue was discovered in the CSS implementation in Blink. If a user were tricked in to opening a     specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to bypass same-origin restrictions.
    (CVE-2015-1287)

    Multiple security issues were discovered in Chromium. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially     crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to read uninitialized memory, cause a denial     of service via application crash or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the     program. (CVE-2015-1289)

    A use-after-free was discovered in oxide::qt::URLRequestDelegatedJob in some circumstances. If a user were     tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a     denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user     invoking the program. (CVE-2015-1329)

    A crash was discovered in the regular expression implementation in V8 in some circumstances. If a user     were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to     cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-5605)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

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