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 RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The NavigationScheduler::schedulePageBlock function in core/loader/NavigationScheduler.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101, does not properly provide substitute data for pages blocked by the XSS auditor, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted web site.
