Description

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5120 advisory.

- Use after free in tab groups in Google Chrome prior to 100.0.4896.88 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-1313)

- Inappropriate implementation in full screen in Google Chrome on Android prior to 100.0.4896.88 allowed a remote attacker to spoof the contents of the Omnibox (URL bar) via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-1307)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues 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 100.0.4896.88-1~deb11u1.
