CVE-2010-1823

Publication date 24 September 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

Use-after-free vulnerability in WebKit before r65958, as used in Google Chrome before 6.0.472.59, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors that trigger use of document APIs such as document.close during parsing, as demonstrated by a Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) file referencing an invalid SVG font, aka rdar problem 8442098.

Notes

jdstrand

qt4-x11 unmaintained upstream (see README.webkit for details) webkit is a fork of khtml from kdelibs. kdelibs5 is farther from it, while qt4-x11 attempts to unify khtml and webkit.

mdeslaur

webkitkde is a wrapper around qt4-x11's webkit.

jdstrand

chromium-browser usually has its own CVEs for its own embedded webkit, but adjust it as needed

debian lists changeset 65692, but I'm not so sure
