Description Marian Rehak 2019-05-06 10:46:20 UTC

Chrome could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by a parameter passing error in media player. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web site, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access to the system.
