CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade chromium to version 48.0.2564.97 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The UnacceleratedImageBufferSurface class in WebKit/Source/platform/graphics/UnacceleratedImageBufferSurface.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 48.0.2564.82, mishandles the initialization mode, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web site.
