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 Ubuntu.

components/navigation_interception/intercept_navigation_resource_throttle.cc in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91 on Android does not properly restrict use of intent: URLs to open an application after navigation to a web site, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of browser access to that site) via crafted JavaScript code, as demonstrated by pandora.com and the Pandora application, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-1205.
