Description

This security bulletin contains information about 20 secuirty vulnerabilities.

1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7964)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the Passwords component in Google Chrome. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

2) Improperly implemented security check for standard (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7965)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation in V8 in Google Chrome. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it and compromise the system.

Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.

3) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7966)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in Skia in Google Chrome. A remote attacker can trick the victim to visit a specially crafted webpage, trigger a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the system.

4) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7967)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted HTML content in Fonts. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into opening it, trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7968)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the Autofill component in Google Chrome. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

6) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7969)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the V8 component in Google Chrome. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger a type confusion error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.

7) Type Confusion (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7971)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a type confusion error within the V8 engine. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted web page, trick the victim into visiting it, trigger a type confusion error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Note, the vulnerability is being actively exploited in the wild.

8) Improperly implemented security check for standard (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7972)
