Use-after-free vulnerability in the DOM implementation in Google Chrome before 28.0.1500.95 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to improper tracking of which document owns an Attr object.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201309-16 (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 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. Furthermore, a remote attacker       may be able to bypass security restrictions or have other, unspecified,       impact.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Chromium web browser.

The remote host has Google Chrome browser installed. Versions of Google Chrome prior to 28.0.1500.95 are affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A cross-origin restriction bypass error exists related to HTML frames. (CVE-2013-2881)

  - A type-confusion error exists in the V8 JavaScript engine. (CVE-2013-2882)

  - Use-after-free errors exist related to MutationObserver, DOM and input handling.(CVE-2013-2883, CVE-2013-2884, CVE-2013-2885)

  - Unspecified errors exist with no further details. (CVE-2013-2886)

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is a version prior to 28.0.1500.95.  It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A cross-origin restriction bypass error exists     related to HTML frames. (CVE-2013-2881)

  - A type-confusion error exists in the V8 JavaScript     engine. (CVE-2013-2882)

  - Use-after-free errors exist related to     MutationObserver, DOM and input handling.
    (CVE-2013-2883, CVE-2013-2884, CVE-2013-2885)
