Medium

Base vector

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 3.0.195.21

Description The issue allows remote web servers to bypass the Same Origin Policy and conduct cross-site scripting attacks via unknown vectors, related to a user's visit to a different web server that hosts an SVG document. This is due to the getSVGDocument method omitting an unspecified "access check".

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.195.21, update to version 3.0.195.21 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to SVG documents from external web servers to minimize the risk of exploitation.
