Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2014-3195 to the following vulnerability: Name: CVE-2014-3195 URL: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-3195 Assigned: 20140503 Reference: http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2014/10/stable-channel-update.html Reference: https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/detail?r=23144 Reference: https://code.google.com/p/v8/source/detail?r=23268 Reference: https://crbug.com/403409 Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101, does not properly track JavaScript heap-memory allocations as allocations of uninitialized memory and does not properly concatenate arrays of double-precision floating-point numbers, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via crafted JavaScript code, related to the PagedSpace::AllocateRaw and NewSpace::AllocateRaw functions in heap/spaces-inl.h, the LargeObjectSpace::AllocateRaw function in heap/spaces.cc, and the Runtime_ArrayConcat function in runtime.cc. From an initial inspection, it is not clear if the Fedora v8 packages are affected or not.
