critical Nessus Plugin ID 157447

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5068 advisory.

- Out of bounds memory access in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 98.0.4758.80 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-0470)

- Use after free in Safe Browsing in Google Chrome prior to 98.0.4758.80 allowed a remote attacker to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-0452)

- Use after free in Reader Mode in Google Chrome prior to 98.0.4758.80 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page.
(CVE-2022-0453)

- Heap buffer overflow in ANGLE in Google Chrome prior to 98.0.4758.80 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-0454)

- Inappropriate implementation in Full Screen Mode in Google Chrome on Android prior to 98.0.4758.80 allowed a remote attacker to spoof the contents of the Omnibox (URL bar) via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-0455)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the chromium packages.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed in version 98.0.4758.80-1~deb11u1.
