Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 55.0.2883.75
Opera versions prior to 55.0.2883.75
Description
The issue arises from incorrect handling of deferred page loads by the Blink component in Google Chrome and Opera, allowing a remote attacker to inject arbitrary scripts or HTML (UXSS) via a crafted HTML page. This could potentially enable an attacker to obtain information about the integration platform and operating system.
Recommendations
For Google Chrome versions prior to 55.0.2883.75, update to version 55.0.2883.75 or later.
For Opera versions prior to 55.0.2883.75, update to version 55.0.2883.75 or later.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to crafted HTML pages until a patch is available.
Fix
XSS
