CVE-2014-3198: Google Chrome

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 1.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The Instance::HandleInputEvent function in pdf/instance.cc in the PDFium component in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101 interprets a certain -1 value as an index instead of a no-visible-page error code, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via unspecified vectors.

Affected products

• Google Chrome: up to and including 38.0.2125.7
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop Supplementary: version 6.0 only
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Supplementary: version 6.0 only
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Supplementary Eus: version 6.6.z only
• Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation Supplementary: version 6.0 only
