CVE-2016-5154
HighSummary
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in PDFium, used in Google Chrome before version 53.0.2785.89 on Windows and OS X and before version 53.0.2785.92 on Linux, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted JBig2 image.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability may lead to denial of service, affecting application availability and potentially being exploited for further attacks on the system.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update Google Chrome to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability and to monitor systems for unauthorized activities.
