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 52.0.2743.82. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :- Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities exist that allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors.
(CVE-2016-1705)
- A sandbox protection bypass vulnerability exists in PPAPI due to a failure to validate the origin of IPC messages to the plugin broker process. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the sandbox. (CVE-2016-1706)
- A use-after-free error exists in Extensions due to a failure to consider object lifetimes during progress observation. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
(CVE-2016-1708)
- An array indexing error exists in the ByteArray::Get() function in data/byte_array.cc due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a heap-based buffer overflow, resulting in a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
(CVE-2016-1709)
- A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists in Blink due to a failure to prevent window creation by a deferred frame. A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the same-origin policy. (CVE-2016-1710)
- A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists in Blink due to a failure to disable frame navigation during a detach operation on a DocumentLoader object. A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the same-origin policy.
(CVE-2016-1711)
- A use-after-free error exists in Blink in the previousLinePosition() function. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via crafted JavaScript code involving an @import at-rule in a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequence in conjunction with a rel=import attribute of a LINK element, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5127)
- A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists in Google V8 due to a failure to prevent API interceptors from modifying a store target without setting a property. A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the same-origin policy. (CVE-2016-5128)
- A flaw exists in V8 due to improper processing of left-trimmed objects. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via crafted JavaScript code, to cause a denial of service condition or the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5129)
- A flaw exists that is triggered when handling two forward navigations that compete in different frames. A remote attacker can exploit this to conduct a URL spoofing attack. (CVE-2016-5130)
- A use-after-free error exists in libxml2 in the xmlXPtrRangeToFunction() function. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5131)
- A same-origin bypass vulnerability exists in the Service Workers subsystem due to a failure to properly implement the Secure Contexts specification during decisions about whether to control a subframe. A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the same-origin policy.
(CVE-2016-5132)
- A flaw exists in the handling of origin information during proxy authentication that allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof a proxy-authentication login prompt or trigger incorrect credential storage by modifying the client-server data stream. (CVE-2016-5133)
- A validation flaw exists in the Proxy Auto-Config (PAC) feature due to a failure to ensure that URL information is restricted to a scheme, host, and port. A remote attacker can exploit this to disclose credentials by operating a server with a PAC script. (CVE-2016-5134)
- A cross-origin bypass vulnerability exists in Blink due to a failure to consider referrer-policy information inside an HTML document during a preload request. A remote attacker can exploit this to bypass the Content Security Policy (CSP) protection mechanism.
(CVE-2016-5135)
- A use-after-free error exists in Extensions that allows a remote attacker to dereference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-5136)
- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Blink when handling HTTP vs HTTPs ports in source expressions.
An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to determine whether a specific HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) web site has been visited by reading a CSP report. (CVE-2016-5137)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
