Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Out-of-Bounds. Multiple buffer overflows in runtime.cc in Google V8 before 3.22.24.7, as used in Google Chrome before 31.0.1650.63, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors that trigger a large typed array, related to the (1) Runtime_TypedArrayInitialize and (2) Runtime_TypedArrayInitializeFromArrayLike functions.
