NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream webkit2gtk package and not the webkit2gtk package as distributed by Ubuntu.

WebKit in Google Chrome before Blink M11 and M12 does not properly handle counter nodes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption).
