**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Google Chrome versions prior to 49.0.2623.75 Opera versions prior to 49.0.2623.75 **Description** The issue is related to a use-after-free vulnerability in the content/browser/web contents/web contents impl.cc component. This vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impacts. The exploitation is triggered by initiating an image download after a certain data structure is deleted, as demonstrated by a favicon.ico download. **Recommendations** For Google Chrome versions prior to 49.0.2623.75, update to version 49.0.2623.75 or later. For Opera versions prior to 49.0.2623.75, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue, as the exact version is not specified. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting image downloads in the affected component until a patch is available.
