CVE-2013-6656: Google Chrome

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 1.1% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The XSSAuditor::init function in core/html/parser/XSSAuditor.cpp in the XSS auditor in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 33.0.1750.117, processes POST requests by using the body of a redirecting page instead of the body of a redirect target, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors.
