The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 42.0.2311.135. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An unspecified user-after-free memory error exists in     DOM. (CVE-2015-1243)

  - Other unspecified errors exists. No other details are     available. (CVE-2015-1250)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Chromium was updated to 42.0.2311.135 to fix security issues and bugs.

The following vulnerabilities were fixed :

  - CVE-2015-1243: Use-after-free in DOM

  - CVE-2015-1250: Various fixes from internal audits,     fuzzing and other initiatives.

The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 42.0.2311.135. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An unspecified user-after-free memory error exists in     DOM. (CVE-2015-1243)

  - Other unspecified errors exists. No other details are     available. (CVE-2015-1250)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Updated chromium-browser packages that fix multiple security issues and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Supplementary.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

Chromium is an open source web browser, powered by WebKit (Blink).

Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Chromium to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Chromium. (CVE-2015-1243, CVE-2015-1250)

This update also fixes the following bug :

* Prior to this update, Chromium did not accept GNOME's system proxy settings due to having GConf support disabled. This issue has been resolved in this update. (BZ#1217065)

All Chromium users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Chromium version 42.0.2311.135, which corrects these issues.
After installing the update, Chromium must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

Google Chrome Releases reports :

5 security fixes in this release, including :

- [453279] High CVE-2015-1243: Use-after-free in DOM. Credit to Saif El-Sherei.

- [481777] CVE-2015-1250: Various fixes from internal audits, fuzzing and other initiatives.

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the chromium web browser :

  - CVE-2015-1243     Saif El-Sherei discovered a use-after-free issue.

  - CVE-2015-1250     The chrome 42 team found and fixed multiple issues     during internal auditing.

A use-after-free was discovered in the DOM implementation in Blink. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a denial of service via renderer crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the sandboxed render process. (CVE-2015-1243)
