Several out-of-bounds write bugs were discovered in Skia. If a user were
tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could
potentially exploit these to cause a denial of service via application

[CRITICAL] Research Spotlight: Exploiting Use-After-Free Vulnerabilities
This blog post was authored by Earl Carter & Yves Younan.
Talos is constantly researching the ways in which threat actors take advantage of security weaknesses to exploit systems. Yves Younan of Talos will be presenting at CanSecWest on Friday March 20th. The topic of his talk will be FreeSentry, a software-based mitigation technique developed by Talos to protect against exploitation of use-after-free vulnerabilities. Use-after-free vulnerabilities have become an important class of security problems due to the existence of mitigations that protect against other types of vulnerabilities, such as buffer overflows.
