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 3.30.33.15. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2015_01_stable-update advisory.

- Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91 allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors. (CVE-2015-1205)

- Multiple off-by-one errors in libavcodec/vorbisdec.c in FFmpeg before 2.4.2, as used in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted Vorbis I data. (CVE-2014-7937)

- The Regular Expressions package in International Components for Unicode (ICU) 52 before SVN revision 292944, as used in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to a look-behind expression. (CVE-2014-7923)

- Use-after-free vulnerability in the IndexedDB implementation in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering duplicate BLOB references, related to content/browser/indexed_db/indexed_db_callbacks.cc and content/browser/indexed_db/indexed_db_dispatcher_host.cc. (CVE-2014-7924)

- The Regular Expressions package in International Components for Unicode (ICU) 52 before SVN revision 292944, as used in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors related to a zero-length quantifier. (CVE-2014-7926)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome version 3.30.33.15 or later.
