Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 46.0.2490.71. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists in Blink that allows an attacker to bypass the same-origin policy.
(CVE-2015-6755)

- A use-after-free error exists in PDFium. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code or a denial of service condition.
(CVE-2015-6756)

- A use-after-free error exists in ServiceWorker. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6757)

- An unspecified bad cast issue exists in PDFium that a remote attacker can exploit to have an unspecified impact. (CVE-2015-6758)

- An unspecified flaw exists in LocalStorage that allows an attacker to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2015-6759)

- An unspecified flaw exists when handling errors that allows an attacker to have an unspecified impact.
(CVE-2015-6760)

- A memory corruption issues exists in FFMpeg due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-6761)

- An unspecified flaw exists when handling CSS fonts. An attacker can exploit this to bypass cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) restrictions. (CVE-2015-6762)

- Multiple unspecified high severity issues exist that allow an attacker to have an unspecified impact.
(CVE-2015-6763)
