Description

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

Google Chrome before 13.0.782.107 does not ensure that developer-mode NPAPI extension installations are confirmed by a browser dialog, which makes it easier for remote attackers to modify the product's functionality via a Trojan horse extension.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
