CVE-2009-3933

Publication date 12 November 2009

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

WebKit before r50173, as used in Google Chrome before 3.0.195.32, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a web page that calls the JavaScript setInterval method, which triggers an incompatibility between the WTF::currentTime and base::Time functions.

Notes

jdstrand

webkit is a fork of khtml from kdelibs. kdelibs5 is farther from it, while qt4-x11 attempts to unify khtml and webkit
