CVSS v2.0

High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 47.0.2526.73
Description
The issue is related to the VideoFramePool::PoolImpl::CreateFrame function in Google Chrome, which does not initialize memory for a video-frame data structure. This might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging improper interaction with the
vp3 h loop filter c function in libavcodec/vp3dsp.c in FFmpeg.Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 47.0.2526.73, update to version 47.0.2526.73 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the
VideoFramePool::PoolImpl::CreateFrame function until a patch is available. Avoid using the vp3 h loop filter c function in the affected libavcodec/vp3dsp.c file until the issue is resolved.Exploit
