CVE-2016-7395 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:18.10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream firefox package and not the firefox package as distributed by Ubuntu.
SkPath.cpp in Skia, as used in Google Chrome before 53.0.2785.89 on Windows and OS X and before 53.0.2785.92 on Linux, does not properly validate the return values of ChopMonoAtY calls, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted graphics data.
