CVE-2009-2555
Heap-based buffer overflow in src/jsregexp.cc in Google V8 before 1.1.10.14, as used in Google Chrome before 2.0.172.37, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the Chrome sandbox via a crafted JavaScript regular expression.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
