Debian DSA-5163-1 : chromium - security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 162152

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-5163 advisory.

- Use after free in ANGLE in Google Chrome prior to 102.0.5005.115 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-2011)

- Use after free in WebGPU in Google Chrome prior to 102.0.5005.115 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-2007)

- Double free in WebGL in Google Chrome prior to 102.0.5005.115 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (CVE-2022-2008)

- Out of bounds read in compositing in Google Chrome prior to 102.0.5005.115 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to potentially perform a sandbox escape via a crafted HTML page.
(CVE-2022-2010)

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 102.0.5005.115-1~deb11u1.
