Google : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2015 (Gain Privilege)

packages/Keyguard/res/layout/keyguard_password_view.xml in Lockscreen in Android 5.x before 5.1.1 LMY48M does not restrict the number of characters in the passwordEntry input field, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a long password that triggers a SystemUI crash, aka internal bug 22214934.

The getRunningAppProcesses function in services/core/java/com/android/server/am/ActivityManagerService.java in Android before 5.1.1 LMY48I allows attackers to bypass intended getRecentTasks restrictions and discover the name of the foreground application via a crafted application, aka internal bug 20034603.

The AppWidgetServiceImpl implementation in com/android/server/appwidget/AppWidgetServiceImpl.java in the Settings application in Android before 5.1.1 LMY48I allows attackers to obtain a URI permission via an application that sends an Intent with a (1) FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION or (2) FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION flag, as demonstrated by bypassing intended restrictions on reading contacts, aka internal bug 19618745.

object-observe.js in Google V8, as used in Google Chrome before 45.0.2454.101, does not properly restrict method calls on access-checked objects, which allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via a (1) observe or (2) getNotifier call.

core/html/parser/HTMLConstructionSite.cpp in the DOM implementation in Blink, as used in Google Chrome before 43.0.2357.65, allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy via crafted JavaScript code that appends a child to a SCRIPT element, related to the insert and executeReparentTask functions.

components/navigation_interception/intercept_navigation_resource_throttle.cc in Google Chrome before 40.0.2214.91 on Android does not properly restrict use of intent: URLs to open an application after navigation to a web site, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of browser access to that site) via crafted JavaScript code, as demonstrated by pandora.com and the Pandora application, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-1205.
