NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libv8-3.14 package and not the libv8-3.14 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

The SimplifiedLowering::DoLoadBuffer function in compiler/simplified-lowering.cc in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91, does not properly choose an integer data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code.
