Description
An Electron
<webview> guest can enable nodeIntegrationInWorker for its Web Workers even when the unsandboxed embedder has Node.js integration disabled. This allows untrusted guest content to create a Node-enabled worker with higher privileges than those granted by the embedder. This issue only affects applications that enable the <webview> tag and maintain an unsandboxed embedder.Recommendations
Update to version 41.10.6.
Update to version 42.9.2.
Update to version 43.4.1.
Update to version 44.0.0-beta.5.
Remove
nodeIntegrationInWorker from the guest preferences in a will-attach-webview handler.
Avoid enabling the <webview> tag when loading untrusted content.Exploit
Fix
Improper Privilege Management
