NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream oxide-qt package and not the oxide-qt package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The WebContentsImpl::FocusLocationBarByDefault function in content/browser/web_contents/web_contents_impl.cc in Google Chrome before 50.0.2661.75 mishandles focus for certain about:blank pages, which allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar via a crafted URL.
