The CSSParser::parseFontFaceSrc function in WebCore/css/CSSParser.cpp in WebKit, as used in Google Chrome before 8.0.552.224, Chrome OS before 8.0.552.343, webkitgtk before 1.2.6, and other products does not properly parse Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) token sequences, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted local font, related to "Type Confusion."
The UNIX IPC layer in WebKit, including WebKitGTK+ prior to 2.16.3, does not properly validate certain message metadata, allowing a compromised secondary process to cause a denial of service (release assertion) of the UI process. This vulnerability does not affect Apple products.
