Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 44.0.2403.89
Description
The issue is related to a use-after-free vulnerability in the IndexedDB implementation, specifically in the content/browser/indexed db/indexed db backing store.cc file. This vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impacts by leveraging an abort action before a certain write operation. The exploitation involves influencing write operations, which can lead to system disruption.
Recommendations
