Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Google Chrome versions prior to 34.0.1847.137
Description
The issue is related to a use-after-free error in the FrameSelection::updateAppearance function in Blink, which can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impacts. This is achieved by leveraging improper RenderObject handling.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 34.0.1847.137, update to version 34.0.1847.137 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the FrameSelection::updateAppearance function until a patch is available.
