The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201111-01 (Chromium, V8: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Chromium and V8. Please       review the CVE identifiers and release notes referenced below for       details.
  Impact :

    A local attacker could gain root privileges (CVE-2011-1444, fixed in       chromium-11.0.696.57).
    A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to open a specially       crafted website or JavaScript program using Chromium or V8, possibly       resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the       process, or a Denial of Service condition. The attacker also could obtain       cookies and other sensitive information, conduct man-in-the-middle       attacks, perform address bar spoofing, bypass the same origin policy,       perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks, or bypass pop-up blocks.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
