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.

In libwebm before 2019-03-08, a NULL pointer dereference caused by the functions OutputCluster and OutputTracks in webm_info.cc will trigger an abort, which allows a DoS attack, a similar issue to CVE-2018-19212.
