CVE-2010-4574 Information

Description

The Pickle::Pickle function in base/pickle.cc in Google Chrome before 8.0.552.224 and Chrome OS before 8.0.552.343 on 64-bit Linux platforms does not properly perform pointer arithmetic which allows remote attackers to bypass message deserialization validation and cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via invalid pickle data.
