CVE-2014-3198

Google Chrome < 38.0.2125.101 - Denial of Service via PDFium Instance Input Event Handling

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The Instance::HandleInputEvent function in pdf/instance.cc in the PDFium component in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101 interprets a certain -1 value as an index instead of a no-visible-page error code, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via unspecified vectors.
