Weakness
Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787)
Summary

Heap buffer overflow in vp8 encoding in libvpx in Google Chrome prior to 117.0.5938.132 and libvpx 1.13.1 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)

Weakness
Use After Free (CWE-416)
Summary

Use after free in Site Isolation in Google Chrome prior to 118.0.5993.70 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: Critical)

Impact

Displaying of a specially crafted HTML page can lead to heap buffer overflow or heap corruption. In a worst-case scenario, a successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities can lead to execution of arbitrary code using the privileges of the user running the affected software. In the case of the PASvisu Builder, the vulnerability can only be exploited locally.
