Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-1700)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

Use-after-free vulnerability in modules/speech/SpeechSynthesis.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 33.0.1750.149, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging improper handling of a certain utterance data structure.


2) Cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-1701)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data when processing data passed via vectors involving events. A remote attacker can trick the victim to follow a specially crafted link and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


3) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-1702)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the DatabaseThread::cleanupDatabaseThread function in modules/webdatabase/DatabaseThread.cpp in the web database implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 33.0.1750.149, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging improper handling of scheduled tasks during shutdown of a thread.


4) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-1703)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the WebSocketDispatcherHost::SendOrDrop function in content/browser/renderer_host/websocket_dispatcher_host.cc in the Web Sockets implementation in Google Chrome before 33.0.1750.149 might allow remote attackers to bypass the sandbox protection mechanism by leveraging an incorrect deletion in a certain failure case.
