Description Vincent Danen 2012-03-28 21:33:22 UTC

The Google Chrome release 18.0.1025.142 noted the following flaw in v8:

[$500] [117794] Medium CVE-2011-3057: Invalid read in v8. Credit to Christian Holler.

Unfortunately the upstream bug report is private, so I cannot provide further details.

The Gentoo bug [1] implies this is fixed in 3.8.9.16, but I cannot seem to verify this.

This was corrected in Fedora quite some time ago; not sure why this was in an embargoed state for so long.  Looks to have been fixed in v8 3.8.9.16.
