Use-after-free vulnerability in the Event::currentTarget function in core/events/Event.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JavaScript code that accesses the path property of an Event object.
CVSS 2.0 Base Score 7.5. CVSS Attack Vector: network. CVSS Attack Complexity: low. CVSS Vector: (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P).
The following example demonstrates the weakness.
}free(buf3R2);
The following code illustrates a use after free error:
}free(ptr);logError("operation aborted before commit", ptr);
When an error occurs, the pointer is immediately freed. However, this pointer is later incorrectly used in the logError function.
