DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Google Chrome, where
some have unknown impacts and others can be exploited by malicious
people to bypass certain security restrictions, conduct spoofing
attacks, conduct cross-site scripting attacks, and potentially
compromise a user's system.

1) An error within the history handling can be exploited to spoof the
URL bar and display attacker controlled content while the browser
presents the certificate of a trusted site.

2) An error can be exploited to spoof the URL bar by e.g. tricking
the user into performing a drag and drop operation on specially
crafted content.

3) An error is caused due to the application stripping whitespaces at
the end of download filenames.

4) Certain input passed to the appcache internals page is not
properly sanitised before being displayed. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in context of the appcache
internals page.

5) A race condition exists within the initialisation of worker
processes.

6) An unspecified error can be exploited to redirect to chrome scheme
URIs.

7) An unspecified error exists within the HTTP header delimiter
handling.

8) Various unspecified errors can be exploited to violate the
cross-origin policy.

9) A use-after-free error exists within the media buffer handling.

10) A use-after-free error exists within the counter handling.

11) Various timing issues exist within the DOM traversal.

12) Various issues related to stale styles can lead to use-after-free
errors.

13) Unspecified errors within v8 can be exploited to cause
out-of-bounds writes.

14) An unspecified error related to javascript URIs can be exploited
to steal cookies.

15) A use-after-free error exists related to plug-ins and editing.

16) An error related to Web Audio can be exploited to cause a heap
overflow.

17) A use-after-free error exists within the video source handling.

18) Internal v8 functions are exposed.

SOLUTION:
Upgrade to version 15.0.874.102.
