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 51.0.2704.63. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2016_05_stable-channel-update_25 advisory.

- Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63 allow attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors. (CVE-2016-1695)

- The ModuleSystem::RequireForJsInner function in extensions/renderer/module_system.cc in the extension bindings in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63 mishandles properties, which allows remote attackers to conduct bindings-interception attacks and bypass the Same Origin Policy via unspecified vectors.
(CVE-2016-1672)

- Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63, allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2016-1673)

- The extensions subsystem in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63 allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2016-1674)

- Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63, allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy by leveraging the mishandling of Document reattachment during destruction, related to FrameLoader.cpp and LocalFrame.cpp. (CVE-2016-1675)

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 51.0.2704.63 or later.
