CVE-2015-6759  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:9 chromium-browser to version 46.0.2490.71-1 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:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The shouldTreatAsUniqueOrigin function in platform/weborigin/SecurityOrigin.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 46.0.2490.71, does not ensure that the origin of a LocalStorage resource is considered unique, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via vectors involving a blob: URL.
