- memory corruption issues
- An error within Chrome Object Wrapper (COW) when handling the
'InstallTrigger' object can be exploited to access certain privileged
functions and properties.
- Use-after-free in the IME State Manager code.
- combination of invoking full screen mode and navigating backwards in
history could, in some circumstances, cause a hang or crash due to a
timing dependent use-after-free pointer reference.
- Several methods of a feature used for testing (DOMWindowUtils) are not
protected by existing security checks, allowing these methods to be called
through script by web pages.
- An error when GetProperty function is invoked through JSAPI, security
checking can be bypassed when getting cross-origin properties.
- An issue with spoofing of the location property.
- Use-after-free, buffer overflow, and out of bounds read issues.
- The location property can be accessed by binary plugins through
top.location and top can be shadowed by Object.define Property as well.
This can allow for possible XSS attacks through plugins.
- several memory safety bugs in the browser engine used in mozilla products.");
