NVD Description

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

Integer underflow in the ProcessCommandsInternal function in dec/decode.c in Brotli, as used in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.109, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted data with brotli compression.
