Denial of service vulnerability in Google Chrome via crafted VPx video data (deb)ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:23823 | Date: (C)2015-03-18 (M)2023-11-16 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
The host is installed with Google Chrome before 41.0.2272.76 and is prone to a denial of service vulnerability. A flaw is present in VpxVideoDecoder::VpxDecode function in media/filters/vpx_video_decoder.cc in the vpxdecoder implementation in Google Chrome, which does not ensure that alpha-plane dimensions are identical to image dimensions. Successful exploitation allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read).
