Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Forced Integer Overflow
    This attack forces an integer variable to go out of range. The integer variable is often used as an offset such as size of memory allocation or similarly. The attacker would typically control the value of such variable and try to get it out of range. For instance the integer in question is incremented past the maximum possible value, it may wrap to become a very small, or negative number, therefore providing a very incorrect value which can lead to unexpected behavior. At worst the attacker can execute arbitrary code.

descriptionThe version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 6.0.472.62. Such versions are reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - There is a bad cast with malformed SVGs. (Issue #55114) - The buffer is mismanaged in the SPDY protocol. (Issue #55119) - A cross-origin property pollution issue exists. (Issue #55350)
