CVE-2016-1649  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade chromium to version 50.0.2661.75 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. The Program::getUniformInternal function in Program.cpp in libANGLE, as used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.108, does not properly handle a certain data-type mismatch, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted shader stages.
