The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 2.0.172.43. Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple issues :

  • A flaw in the V8 JavaScript engine might allow a specially crafted JavaScript page to access unauthorized data in memory or to execute arbitrary code within the Google Chrome sandbox. (CVE-2009-2935)

  • The browser can connect to SSL-enabled sites whose certificates use weak hash algorithms, such as MD2 and MD4. An attacker may be able exploit this issue to forge certificates and spoof an invalid website as a valid HTTPS site. (Issue #18725)

  • A stack consumption vulnerability in libxml2 library could be exploited to crash the Google Chrome tab process or execute arbitrary code with in Google Chrome sandbox.
    (CVE-2009-2414)

  • Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities in libxml2 library could be exploited to crash the Google Chrome tab process or execute arbitrary code with in Google Chrome sandbox. (CVE-2009-2416)
