Description Vincent Danen 2014-04-29 12:46:38 EDT

Security researcher Abhishek Arya (Inferno) of the Google Chrome Security Team used the Address Sanitizer tool to discover a fixed offset out of bounds read issue while decoding specifically formatted JPG format images. This causes a non-exploitable crash.
