The version of Google Chrome installed on the remote Mac OS X host is prior to 53.0.2785.143. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • An unspecified use-after-free error exists in V8 that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to deference already freed memory, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-5177)

  • Multiple flaws exist that allow an attacker to cause an unspecified impact. No other details are available.
    (CVE-2016-5178)

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