Google Chrome < 42.0.2311.152 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Network Monitor Plugin ID 8780

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web browser that is vulnerable to multiple attack vectors.

Description

The version of Google Chrome on the remote host is prior to 42.0.2311.152 and is affected by the following vulnerabilities in the Adobe Flash player component :

- An unspecified security bypass flaw exists that allows an attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2015-3044)

- Multiple unspecified type confusion flaws exist that allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3077, CVE-2015-3084, CVE-2015-3086)

- Multiple memory corruption flaws exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit these flaws, via specially crafted flash content, to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3078, CVE-2015-3089, CVE-2015-3090, CVE-2015-3093)

- An unspecified security bypass exists that allows a context-dependent attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2015-3079)

- An unspecified use-after-free error exists that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3080)

- Multiple validation bypass vulnerabilities exists that allow an attacker to lead to write arbitrary data to the file system. (CVE-2015-3082, CVE-2015-3083, CVE-2015-3085)

- An integer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. This allows a context-dependent attacker to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3087)

- A heap-based buffer overflow condition exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-3088)

- Multiple unspecified memory leaks exist that allow an attacker to bypass the Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) feature. (CVE-2015-3091, CVE-2015-3092)

Solution

Upgrade to Google Chrome 42.0.2311.152 or later.
