High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 1.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

common/partial_circular_buffer.cc in Google Chrome before 43.0.2357.65 does not properly handle wraps, which allows remote attackers to bypass a sandbox protection mechanism or cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) via vectors that trigger a write operation with a large amount of data, related to the PartialCircularBuffer::Write and PartialCircularBuffer::DoWrite functions.

Affected products

  • Debian Debian Linux: version 8.0 only
  • Google Chrome: up to and including 42.0.2311.152
