CVE-2018-12387:
Impact
critical
Description
A vulnerability where the JavaScript JIT compiler inlines Array.prototype.push with multiple arguments that results in the stack pointer being off by 8 bytes after a bailout. This leaks a memory address to the calling function which can be used as part of an exploit inside the sandboxed content process.
Fast stabilization started. Added to an existing GLSA request. This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201810-01 at https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/201810-01 by GLSA coordinator Thomas Deutschmann (whissi). |
