Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: chromium-browser security update

Notes

Topic
Updated chromium-browser packages that fix two security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 Supplementary. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Critical security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.
Details
Chromium is an open-source web browser, powered by WebKit (Blink). Two flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Chromium to crash, execute arbitrary code, or disclose sensitive information when visited by the victim. (CVE-2016-1629) All Chromium users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Chromium version 48.0.2564.116, which corrects these issues. After installing the update, Chromium must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
