Google Chrome before 29 sends HTTP Cookie headers without first validating that they have the required character-set restrictions, which allows remote attackers to conduct the equivalent of a persistent Logout CSRF attack via a crafted parameter that forces a web application to set a malformed cookie within an HTTP response.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects Google Chrome before version 29. A malicious remote input could cause a site to set a malformed cookie, and Chrome would later send that cookie without required validation. The documented impact is equivalent to persistent logout CSRF, not confirmed system compromise. Exposure appears limited to endpoints still using Google Chrome before 29. The source bundle does not identify other affected products, supported platforms, or modern Chrome exposure. Treat this as low priority unless legacy Chrome remains in use. The business risk is mainly user disruption and session reliability, not documented data theft or code execution. Mitigation focus: Remove or upgrade any Google Chrome versions before 29.; Block unsupported legacy Chrome from enterprise web access where feasible.; Check Chromium or vendor guidance for any embedded legacy browser use..
