The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is prior to 62.0.3202.89, and is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - A use-after-free error exists in the 'InstanceBuilder::Build()' function in 'wasm/module-compiler.cc' that is triggered as certain input is not properly validated. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to dereference already freed memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-15399)
 - An overflow condition exists in the 'QuicClientPromisedInfo::OnPromiseHeaders()' function in 'net/quic/core/quic_client_promised_info.cc' that is triggered when handling method headers. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to cause a stack-based buffer overflow, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-15398)

This update for Chromium to version 62.0.3202.89 fixes the following vulnerabilities (boo#1066851) :

  - CVE-2017-15398: Stack-based buffer overflow in QUIC

  - CVE-2017-15399: Use after free in V8
