CVE-2016-1662

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 50.0.2661.94 Opera (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to the gc callback.cc file in the extensions/renderer directory, which does not prevent fallback execution once the Garbage Collection callback has started. This allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors.
