"The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 4.9.385.26. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 2016_03_stable-channel-update advisory.

  - Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75 allow attackers to cause a
    denial of service or possibly have other impact via unknown vectors. (CVE-2016-1642)

  - The ContainerNode::parserRemoveChild function in WebKit/Source/core/dom/ContainerNode.cpp in Blink, as
    used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75, mishandles widget updates, which makes it easier for remote
    attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted web site. (CVE-2016-1630)

  - The PPB_Flash_MessageLoop_Impl::InternalRun function in
    content/renderer/pepper/ppb_flash_message_loop_impl.cc in the Pepper plugin in Google Chrome before
    49.0.2623.75 mishandles nested message loops, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin
    Policy via a crafted web site. (CVE-2016-1631)

  - The Extensions subsystem in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75 does not properly maintain own properties,
    which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via crafted JavaScript code that
    triggers an incorrect cast, related to extensions/renderer/v8_helpers.h and gin/converter.h.
    (CVE-2016-1632)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.75, allows remote
    attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.
    (CVE-2016-1633)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
