Description Murray McAllister 2014-04-10 07:05:10 UTC
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2014-1716 to
the following vulnerability:

Name: CVE-2014-1716
URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-1716
Assigned: 20140129
Reference: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2014/04/stable-channel-update.html
Reference: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=354123
Reference: https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/detail?r=20138

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Runtime_SetPrototype
function in runtime.cc in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before
34.0.1847.116, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script
or HTML via unspecified vectors, aka "Universal XSS (UXSS)."

From a brief, initial investigation, the function is not in the versions of v8 as shipped in Red Hat products.

Comment 1 Tomas Hoger 2014-06-16 10:35:12 UTC
This fix is not applicable to v8 3.14.
