Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. The DOM implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 47.0.2526.73, does not prevent javascript: URL navigation while a document is being detached, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via crafted JavaScript code that improperly interacts with a plugin.
