"The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201012-01
(Chromium: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities were found in Chromium. For further
    information please consult the release notes referenced below.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could trick a user to perform a set of UI actions
    that trigger a possibly exploitable crash, leading to execution of
    arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.
    It was also possible for an attacker to entice a user to visit a
    specially crafted web page that would trigger one of the
    vulnerabilities, leading to execution of arbitrary code within the
    confines of the sandbox, successful Cross-Site Scripting attacks,
    violation of the same-origin policy, successful website spoofing
    attacks, information leak, or a Denial of Service. An attacker could
    also trick a user to perform a set of UI actions that might result in a
    successful website spoofing attack.
    Multiple bugs in the sandbox could result in a sandbox escape.
    Multiple UI bugs could lead to information leak and successful website
    spoofing attacks.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.");
