| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 34.0.1847.116
Description
The issue is related to the incorrect handling of string data consisting only of whitespace characters in the base64DecodeInternal function in wtf/text/Base64.cpp in Blink. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a call to the
window.atob method.Recommendations
For versions prior to 34.0.1847.116, update to version 34.0.1847.116 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the
window.atob method until a patch is applied.Fix
