Google V8 before 3.13.7.5, as used in Google Chrome before 23.0.1271.64, on 64-bit Linux platforms allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code that triggers an out-of-bounds access to an array.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Google V8 bug affecting Google Chrome before 23.0.1271.64 on 64-bit Linux. A malicious web page could trigger out-of-bounds array access through crafted JavaScript, causing a crash or possibly other unspecified impact. Modern managed browsers should not be exposed. Exposure is most likely limited to obsolete 64-bit Linux systems running Chrome before 23.0.1271.64 or V8 before 3.13.7.5. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete, so do not broaden scope beyond the cited Chrome/V8 versions without vendor evidence. Treat this as a legacy hygiene issue unless old Linux browsers remain in use. The business urgency is low for modern managed fleets, but any internet-facing browsing environment with obsolete Chrome should be updated or removed promptly. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Chrome to 23.0.1271.64 or later on affected 64-bit Linux systems.; Upgrade embedded V8 only where vendor guidance confirms exposure to versions before 3.13.7.5.; Retire unsupported Chrome or Chromium builds from managed Linux endpoints..
