How to fix?

Upgrade chromium to version 36.0.1985.143 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. The InMemoryUrlProtocol::Read function in media/filters/in_memory_url_protocol.cc in Google Chrome before 35.0.1916.114 relies on an insufficiently large integer data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via vectors that trigger use of a large buffer.
