Background ========== Chromium is an open-source web browser project. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-client/chromium < 8.0.552.224 >= 8.0.552.224 Description =========== Multiple vulnerabilities were found in Chromium. For further information please consult the release notes referenced below. Impact ====== A remote attacker could trick a user to perform a set of UI actions that trigger a possibly exploitable crash, leading to execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service. It was also possible for an attacker to entice a user to visit a specially-crafted web page that would trigger one of the vulnerabilities, leading to execution of arbitrary code within the confines of the sandbox, successful Cross-Site Scripting attacks, violation of the same-origin policy, successful website spoofing attacks, information leak, or a Denial of Service. An attacker could also trick a user to perform a set of UI actions that might result in a successful website spoofing attack. Multiple bugs in the sandbox could result in a sandbox escape. Multiple UI bugs could lead to information leak and successful website spoofing attacks. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All Chromium users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/chromium-8.0.552.224" References ========== [ 1 ] Release Notes 5.0.375.86 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/06/stable-channel-update_24.html [ 2 ] Release Notes 5.0.375.99 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/07/stable-channel-update.html [ 3 ] Release Notes 5.0.375.125 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/07/stable-channel-update_26.html [ 4 ] Release Notes 5.0.375.127 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/08/stable-channel-update_19.html [ 5 ] Release Notes 6.0.472.59 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/09/stable-beta-channel-updates_14.html [ 6 ] Release Notes 6.0.472.62 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/09/stable-beta-channel-updates_17.html [ 7 ] Release Notes 7.0.517.41 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/10/stable-channel-update.html [ 8 ] Release Notes 7.0.517.44 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/11/stable-channel-update.html [ 9 ] Release Notes 8.0.552.215 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/12/stable-beta-channel-updates.html [ 10 ] Release Notes 8.0.552.224 http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2010/12/stable-beta-channel-updates_13.html Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201012-01.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
