How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 chromium-browser to version 21.0.1180.89~r154005-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream chromium-browser package and not the chromium-browser package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.89 does not properly perform line breaking, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted document.
