CVE-2011-1805Network attack vector

Heap corruption via bad CSS object cast

Published Jun 3, 2020 · Updated Aug 6, 2024

Incorrect type conversion in Google Chrome before 11.0.0.0 allows remote attackers to corrupt heap memory through crafted CSS in an HTML page. Chrome's CSS handling casts a CSS value to an incompatible object type, causing heap corruption when the crafted page is rendered. Exploitation requires a user to open attacker-controlled content and can compromise browser confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
