The host is installed with Google Chrome before 1.0.154.64 and is prone to a denial of service vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to handle vectors related to a large bitmap that arrives over the IPC channel. Successful exploitation allows attackers to leverage renderer access to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code.
