Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is a version prior to 37.0.2062.120. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A use-after-free error exists related to rendering that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-3178)

- Unspecified errors exist having unspecified impact. (CVE-2014-3179)

Note that the following issues exist due to the version of Adobe Flash bundled with the application :

- Unspecified memory corruption issues exist that allow arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0547, CVE-2014-0549, CVE-2014-0550, CVE-2014-0551, CVE-2014-0552, CVE-2014-0555)

- An unspecified error exists that allows cross-origin policy violations. (CVE-2014-0548)

- A use-after-free error exists that allows arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0553)

- An unspecified error exists that allows an unspecified security bypass. (CVE-2014-0554)

- Unspecified errors exist that allow memory leaks leading to easier defeat of memory address randomization. (CVE-2014-0557)

- Heap-based buffer overflow errors exist that allow arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2014-0556, CVE-2014-0559)

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome 37.0.2062.120 or later.
