The ResourceFetcher::canRequest function in core/fetch/ResourceFetcher.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 36.0.1985.125, does not properly restrict subresource requests associated with SVG files, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a crafted file.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-3160 is an old Blink/Google Chrome browser flaw. Before Chrome 36.0.1985.125, SVG-related subresource loading was not restricted correctly, allowing a crafted file to bypass Same Origin Policy protections. The provided sources do not include CVSS, CWE, or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Chrome or Chromium-based packages older than Chrome 36.0.1985.125, including distro-packaged Chromium noted by Debian and Gentoo advisories. Modern managed browsers should not be affected if continuously updated. Treat this as a legacy hygiene issue unless unsupported browsers remain in production. The business risk rises where old browser builds access sensitive internal applications, because Same Origin Policy bypasses can undermine browser isolation assumptions. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Google Chrome or Chromium to at least 36.0.1985.125 or a vendor-fixed package.; Apply Debian or Gentoo security updates where Chromium is managed through those distributions.; Confirm browser auto-update policies are enabled and enforced across managed endpoints..
