CVE-2015-6790: Google Chrome

Medium severity, CVSS 4.3. EPSS: 1.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The WebPageSerializerImpl::openTagToString function in WebKit/Source/web/WebPageSerializerImpl.cpp in the page serializer in Google Chrome before 47.0.2526.80 does not properly use HTML entities, which might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted document, as demonstrated by a double-quote character inside a single-quoted string.

Affected products

  • Google Chrome: up to and including 47.0.2526.73
