Google Chrome < 41.0.2272.118 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 82534

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 41.0.2272.118. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2015_04_stable-channel-update advisory.

- Google Chrome before 41.0.2272.118 does not properly handle the interaction of IPC, the Gamepad API, and Google V8, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.
(CVE-2015-1233)

- Race condition in gpu/command_buffer/service/gles2_cmd_decoder.cc in Google Chrome before 41.0.2272.118 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact by manipulating OpenGL ES commands. (CVE-2015-1234)

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 41.0.2272.118 or later.
