Google · Google V8 · CVE-2014-7927
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Google Chrome versions prior to 40.0.2214.91
**Description**
The issue is related to the SimplifiedLowering::DoLoadBuffer function in Google V8, which does not properly choose an integer data type. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, such as memory corruption, or possibly have other unspecified impacts via crafted JavaScript code.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 40.0.2214.91, update to version 40.0.2214.91 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the execution of crafted JavaScript code until the update is applied.
