  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"CVE-2018-12407: Buffer overflow with ANGLE library when using VertexBuffer11 module
A buffer overflow occurs when drawing and validating elements with the ANGLE graphics library, used for WebGL content, when working with the VertexBuffer11 module. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2018-17466: Buffer overflow and out-of-bounds read in ANGLE library with TextureStorage11
A buffer overflow and out-of-bounds read can occur in TextureStorage11 within the ANGLE graphics library, used for WebGL content. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2018-18492: Use-after-free with select element
A use-after-free vulnerability can occur after deleting a selection element due to a weak reference to the select element in the options collection. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2018-18493: Buffer overflow in accelerated 2D canvas with Skia
A buffer overflow can occur in the Skia library during buffer offset calculations with hardware accelerated canvas 2D actions due to the use of 32-bit calculations instead of 64-bit. This results in a potentially exploitable crash.

CVE-2018-18494: Same-origin policy violation using location attribute and performance.getEntries to steal cross-origin URLs
A same-origin policy violation allowing the theft of cross-origin URL entries when using the Javascript location property to cause a redirection to another site using performance.getEntries(). This is a same-origin policy violation and could allow for data theft.

CVE-2018-18495: WebExtension content scripts can be loaded in about: pages
WebExtension content scripts can be loaded into about: pages in some circumstances, in violation of the permissions granted to extensions. This could allow an extension to interfere with the loading and usage of these pages and use capabilities that were intended to be restricted from extensions.

CVE-2018-18497: WebExtensions can load arbitrary URLs through pipe separators
Limitations on the URIs allowed to WebExtensions by the browser.windows.create API can be bypassed when a pipe in the URL field is used within the extension to load multiple pages as a single argument. This could allow a malicious WebExtension to opened privileged about: or file: locations.

CVE-2018-18498: Integer overflow when calculating buffer sizes for images
A potential vulnerability leading to an integer overflow can occur during buffer size calculations for images when a raw value is used instead of the checked value. This can ... [Please see the references for more information on the vulnerabilities]");
