Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Google Chrome 34.0.1847.130/34.0.1847.131 (Web Browser). Affected is an unknown code of the component DOM Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability (Type Casting). CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-20. The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

core/html/HTMLSelectElement.cpp in the DOM implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 34.0.1847.131 on Windows and OS X and before 34.0.1847.132 on Linux, does not properly check renderer state upon a focus event, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via vectors that leverage "type confusion" for SELECT elements.

The weakness was published 04/24/2014 by Khalil Zhani with Google as Stable Channel Update, March 2014 as confirmed release notes (Blog).
