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.

Google Chrome before 23.0.1271.64 on Mac OS X does not properly mitigate improper write behavior in graphics drivers, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors that trigger "wild writes."
