Google Chrome before 11.0.696.71 does not properly implement the GPU command buffer, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Google Chrome before 11.0.696.71 does not properly implement the GPU command buffer, which allows remote     attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified     vectors. (CVE-2011-1806)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Versions of Google Chrome earlier than 11.0.696.71 are potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - It may be possible to bypass the pop-up blocker. (CVE-2011-1801)

  - A stale pointer exists in floats rendering. (CVE-2011-1804)

  - A memory corruption issue exists in the GPU command buffer. (CVE-2011-1806)

  - An out-of-bounds write exists in blob handling. (CVE-2011-1807)

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 11.0.696.71.  Such versions of Chrome are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An unspecified error allows the pop-up blocker to be     bypassed. (Issue #72189)

  - A stale pointer can be left behind when floating point     numbers are rendered. (Issue #82546)

  - An unspecified error in the GPU command buffer can lead     to memory corruption. (Issue #82873)

  - An unspecified error in the handling of blobs can lead     to out-of-bounds writes. (Issue #82903)
