Beta release: 0.2.149.30

четверг, 18 сентября 2008 г.

Google Chrome version 0.2.149.30 was released on 17 September 2008. Users will get automatic updates over the next few days.

Security Updates

[r2042] Fix a potential denial of service with very long title attributes on tags. The title attribute sets the tooltip text when you hover the mouse over an element.
Security Rating: Low risk. This can lead to 100% CPU usage or a tab crash.

Other Changes

[r1927] Stop adding content from HTTPS sites to the searchable index.
Google Chrome keeps a searchable history of pages you visit. This history is only stored locally on your computer. Previously, this searchable history included the text from secure sites, such as your online bank (any sites using SSL for security). Google Chrome no longer saves text from secure pages in its local history. The address bar and local history search page will no longer find data from secure sites you have visited.

If you are concerned about data that might have been indexed for searching before this release, you can follow the Google Chrome Help Center instructions for clearing your browsing history.

[r1978] Don't send sensitive URLs to search suggest services. Google Chrome stops sending data to a suggest service if the typed URL:

contains a username:password field (http://username:password@example.com/)
has query parameters (the trailing ?param=data following the URL)
is an https URL with any path component (any part following the hostname, such as /path in https://www.example.com/path)

[r1848, r1943, r2003] Fixes to the Google Chrome updater to make updates more reliable.

[r1859] Fix problems with Flash not playing video if too many connections are opened. For example, using the slider to advance video on YouTube could cause video to stop playing.

[r2059] Allow JavaScript to communicate with Java applets. Fixes bug 580.

[r1299] JavaScript: Dispatch contextmenu events after mouseup events. This fixes the right-click menu not working on Google Spreadsheets. Fixes bug 745.

[r1692] Fix crashes with some plugins --3dvia was the most widely reported-- when they return an error for NPN_GetValue. Fixes bug 493.

Beta release: 0.2.149.29

понедельник, 8 сентября 2008 г.

Google Chrome version 0.2.149.29 was released on 5 September 2008, and all users are being automatically updated. Automatic updates are a key security feature in helping to ensure the safety of Google Chrome users.

This is a security and bug fix update, with no new functionality.

Security Updates:

Fix a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling long filenames that display in the Save As... dialog. This is a critical risk that could lead to execution of arbitrary code.

Fix a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling link targets displayed in the status area when the user hovers over a link. This is a critical risk that could lead to execution of arbitrary code.

Fix an out-of-bounds memory read when parsing URLs ending with :%. This is a low risk that can be used to crash the entire browser, possibly causing loss of data in the current session.

Fix: http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=1760

Change the default Downloads directory if it is set to Desktop, and ensure that Desktop cannot be the default. This mitigates the risk of malicious cluttering of the desktop with unwanted downloads, which can lead to executing unwanted files.

Other changes:
