Google · Google Chrome · CVE-2019-13726
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Google Chrome versions prior to 79.0.3945.79
**Description**
The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the password manager of Google Chrome, which can be exploited by a remote attacker using a specially crafted HTML page. This could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information and disruption of its integrity and availability.
**Recommendations**
For Google Chrome versions prior to 79.0.3945.79, update to version 79.0.3945.79 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the password manager in affected versions until a patch is applied. Restrict access to sensitive information and avoid using the browser for critical operations until the update is installed.
