Synopsis

The remote Windows host contains a web browser that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 48.0.2564.82. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A unspecified vulnerability exists in Google V8 when handling compatible receiver checks hidden behind receptors. An attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. No other details are available.
(CVE-2016-1612)

- A user-after-free error exists in PDFium due to improper invalidation of IPWL_FocusHandler and IPWL_Provider upon destruction. An attacker can exploit this to deference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1613)

- An unspecified vulnerability exists in Blink that is related to the handling of bitmaps. An attacker can exploit this to access sensitive information. No other details are available. (CVE-2016-1614)

- An unspecified vulnerability exists in omnibox that is related to origin confusion. An attacker can exploit this to have an unspecified impact. No other details are available. (CVE-2016-1615)

- An unspecified vulnerability exists that allows an attacker to spoof a displayed URL. No other details are available. (CVE-2016-1616)

- An unspecified vulnerability exists that is related to history sniffing with HSTS and CSP. No other details are available. (CVE-2016-1617)

- A flaw exists in Blink due to the weak generation of random numbers by the ARC4-based random number generator. An attacker can exploit this to gain access to sensitive information. No other details are available. (CVE-2016-1618)

- A out-of-bounds read error exists in PDFium in file fx_codec_jpx_opj.cpp in the sycc4{22,44}_to_rgb() functions. An attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service by crashing the application linked using the library. (CVE-2016-1619)

- Multiple vulnerabilities exist, the most serious of which allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code via a crafted web page. (CVE-2016-1620)
