The host is installed with Google Chrome before 3.0.195.32 and is prone to a denial of service vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to handle a page-local link, related to an "empty redirect chain," as demonstrated by a message in Yahoo! Mail. Successful exploitation allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a page-local link.
