REF NO : CERT / 2024/02/10
Severity Level: Medium
Components Affected
Overview
Multiple vulnerabilities were identified in ChromeOS. A remote attacker could exploit some of these vulnerabilities to trigger denial of service condition, elevation of privilege, remote code execution and security restriction bypass on the targeted system.
Description
Insufficient data validation in Extensions in Google Chrome prior to 120.0.6099.216 allowed an attacker in a privileged network position to install a malicious extension via a crafted HTML page. In MMU_UnmapPages of mmu_common.c, there is a possible out of bounds read due to improper input validation. This could lead to local escalation of privilege in the kernel with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. In PMRWritePMPageList of TBD, there is a possible out of bounds write due to an integer overflow. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
