A vulnerability was found in Google Chrome 31.0.1650.57 (Web Browser). It has been classified as very critical. Affected is an unknown function of the component Array Indices Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

The DehoistArrayIndex function in hydrogen-dehoist.cc (aka hydrogen.cc) in Google V8 before 3.22.24.7, as used in Google Chrome before 31.0.1650.63, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via JavaScript code that sets a variable to the value of an array element with a crafted index.

The weakness was disclosed 11/15/2013 by Jakob Kummerow (Cloudfuzzer) with Chromium Development Community as 319860 as not defined advisory (Website). The advisory is available at googlechromereleases.blogspot.com. The public release has been coordinated in cooperation with the vendor. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2013-6640 since 11/05/2013.
