| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 45.0.2454.85
Description
The issue is related to the WebRequest API implementation in Google Chrome, which does not properly consider a request's source before accepting the request. This allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a crafted app or extension. The vulnerability is related to errors in security settings.
Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 45.0.2454.85, update to version 45.0.2454.85 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the WebRequest API until a patch is available. Avoid using crafted apps or extensions that may exploit this issue.
