The InMemoryUrlProtocol::Read function in media/filters/in_memory_url_protocol.cc in Google Chrome before 35.0.1916.114 relies on an insufficiently large integer data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via vectors that trigger use of a large buffer.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
