Microsoft Edge (Chromium-Based) Multiple Vulnerabilities (Apr 2021) CPE = "cpe:/a:microsoft:edge_chromium_based" This host is missing an important security update according to Microsoft Edge (Chromium-Based) updates. Multiple flaws exist due to: An use after free error in Aura. An out of bounds read error in IPC. Multiple heap buffer overflow errors in TabStrip. An use after free error in V8. An use after free error in screen capture. Successful exploitation will allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, gain access to sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, cause denial of service and may have other impacts. Microsoft Edge (Chromium-Based) prior to version 89.0.4389.114. The vendor has released updates
