**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Google V8 versions prior to 5.0.71.40 Google Chrome versions prior to 51.0.2704.63 **Description** The issue is related to the regexp implementation in Google V8, which mishandles external string sizes. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted JavaScript code. The estimated number of potentially affected devices worldwide is not specified. There is no information about real-world incidents where this issue was exploited. **Recommendations** For Google V8 versions prior to 5.0.71.40, update to version 5.0.71.40 or later to resolve the issue. For Google Chrome versions prior to 51.0.2704.63, update to version 51.0.2704.63 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the execution of crafted JavaScript code until a patch is available.
