Description

WebKit/Source/core/layout/LayoutObject.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.87, does not properly restrict relayout scheduling, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted HTML document.

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
