CVE-2014-3161  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-264  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade chromium to version 36.0.1985.143 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. The WebMediaPlayerAndroid::load function in content/renderer/media/android/webmediaplayer_android.cc in Google Chrome before 36.0.1985.122 on Android does not properly interact with redirects, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted web site that hosts a video stream.
