Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 55.0.2883.75 for Mac, Windows and Linux Google Chrome version 55.0.2883.84 for Android Opera (affected versions not specified)

This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code using a specially crafted HTML page. The corruption of the DOM tree occurs during the removal of a full screen element.

For Google Chrome version 55.0.2883.84 for Android, update to a version later than 55.0.2883.84. For Opera, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
