CVE-2014-3199 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Ubuntu:18.04 chromium-browser to version 38.0.2125.111-0ubuntu1.1103 or higher.
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.
See How to fix? for Ubuntu:18.04 relevant fixed versions and status.
The wrap function in bindings/core/v8/custom/V8EventCustom.cpp in the V8 bindings in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101, has an erroneous fallback outcome for wrapper-selection failures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via vectors that trigger stopping a worker process that had been handling an Event object.
