CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 chromium-browser to version 30.0.1599.101-1 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.

The DoResolveRelativeHost function in url/url_canon_relative.cc in Google Chrome before 30.0.1599.66 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a relative URL containing a hostname, as demonstrated by a protocol-relative URL beginning with a //www.google.com/ substring.
