The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201309-16 (Chromium, V8: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Chromium and V8. Please       review the CVE identifiers and release notes referenced below for       details.
  Impact :

    A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to open a specially       crafted website or JavaScript program using Chromium or V8, possibly       resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the       process or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker       may be able to bypass security restrictions or have other, unspecified,       impact.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 23.0.1271.97 and is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - Use-after-free errors exist related to visibility events     and the URL loader. (CVE-2012-5139, CVE-2012-5140)

  - An unspecified error exists related to instantiation     of the 'Chromoting' client plugin. (CVE-2012-5141)

  - An unspecified error exists related to history     navigation that can lead to application crashes.
    (CVE-2012-5142)

  - An integer overflow error exists related to the 'PPAPI'     image buffers. (CVE-2012-5143)

  - A stack corruption error exists related to 'AAC'     decoding. (CVE-2012-5144)

  - The bundled version of Adobe Flash Player contains     flaws that can lead to arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2012-5676, CVE-2012-5677, CVE-2012-5678)

Successful exploitation of some of these issues could lead to an application crash or even allow arbitrary code execution, subject to the user's privileges.
