How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 chromium-browser to version 5.0.375.29~r46008-1 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 ParamTraits<SkBitmap>::Read function in common/common_param_traits.cc in Google Chrome before 4.0.249.78 does not initialize the memory locations that will hold bitmap data, which might allow remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information from process memory by providing insufficient data, related to use of a (1) thumbnail database or (2) HTML canvas.
