Details:
· Type of Issue : Buffer Overflow.
· Affected Software : Google Chrome 0.2.149.27.
· Exploitation Environment : Google Chrome on Windows XP SP2.
· Impact: Remote code execution.
· Rating : Critical.
· Description :
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when handling the
"SaveAs" function. On saving a malicious page with an overly long title
(<title> tag in HTML), the program causes a stack-based overflow and makes
it possible for attackers to execute arbitrary code on users’ systems.
· How an attacker could exploit the issue :
To exploit the Vulnerability, a hacker might construct a specially crafted
Web page, which contains malicious code. He then tricks users into visiting
a Website and convinces them to save this Page. Right after that, the code
would be executed, giving him the privilege to make use of the affected
system.
