A flaw was found in Chromecast within Google Chrome. An integer overflow vulnerability allows a remote attacker, who has already compromised the renderer process, to potentially execute arbitrary code outside of the sandbox environment. This exploitation can occur by tricking a user into visiting a specially crafted HTML page, leading to a severe security bypass.
