An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-7941 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Google Chrome. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-7941/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-7941/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-7941","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-7941/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-7941","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6877-256j-g6q4","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-7941"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Google Chrome","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via crafted X11 data due to an out-of-bounds read in Chrome's selection handling.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Chrome","cpe":[{"product":"chromium","vendor":"chromium"},{"product":"chrome","vendor":"google"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop_supplementary","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_supplementary","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server_supplementary_eus","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation_supplementary","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The SelectionOwner::ProcessTarget function in ui/base/x/selection_owner.cc in the UI implementation in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91 uses an incorrect data type for a certain length value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via crafted X11 data.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-7941","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"google:chrome","products":["google:chrome","opensuse:opensuse","redhat:enterprise_linux_desktop_supplementary","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_supplementary","redhat:enterprise_linux_server_supplementary_eus","redhat:enterprise_linux_workstation_supplementary"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-7942"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-7940"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-01-22","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Use after free in Chrome","id":"CVE-2023-1531","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-21"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-7939","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-01-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via crafted X11 data due to an out-of-bounds read in Chrome's selection handling.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-7941/"}
