Google Chrome before 21.0.1180.57 on Linux does not properly isolate renderer processes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (cross-process interference) via unspecified vectors.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Google Chrome for Linux issue where renderer processes were not isolated correctly. A remote attacker could cause a browser denial of service through unspecified vectors. The source bundle does not show data theft, privilege escalation, active exploitation, or affected enterprise software beyond legacy Linux Chrome versions before 21.0.1180.57. Exposure is likely limited to unmanaged or legacy Linux systems running Chrome versions older than 21.0.1180.57. Current managed Chrome installations are unlikely to be exposed if normal browser update controls are working. Treat as a legacy hygiene issue, not an emergency, unless the organization still operates very old Linux Chrome builds in production or public-facing kiosk environments. Mitigation focus: Update Linux Chrome installations to 21.0.1180.57 or later.; Retire unsupported Chrome builds from endpoints, images, and kiosks.; Check Google Chrome release guidance for any vendor-specific instructions..
