CVSS 3.0
8.8 highCVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVE-2016-1679
High (8.8). EPSS 1.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
The ToV8Value function in content/child/v8_value_converter_impl.cc in the V8 bindings in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63 does not properly restrict use of getters and setters, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code.
