    descriptionThe version of Google Chrome installed on the remote host is earlier than 24.0.1312.56 and is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities : - A use-after-free vulnerability exists related to font handling and canvas. (CVE-2013-0839) - An error exists related to URL validation and the opening of new browser windows. (CVE-2013-0840) - An array index is not properly checked in relation to content blocking. (CVE-2013-0841) - An unspecified error exists related to handling null characters in embedded paths. (CVE-2013-0842) Successful exploitation of some of these issues could lead to an application crash or even allow arbitrary code execution, subject to the user

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201309-16 (Chromium, V8: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Chromium and V8. Please review the CVE identifiers and release notes referenced below for details. Impact : A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted website or JavaScript program using Chromium or V8, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore, a remote attacker may be able to bypass security restrictions or have other, unspecified, impact. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.
