Synopsis

A web browser installed on the remote macOS host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote macOS host is prior to 83.0.4103.97. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2020_06_stable-channel-update-for-desktop advisory.

 - Use after free in payments in Google Chrome on MacOS prior to 83.0.4103.97 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2020-6496)
