Description Victor Pereira 2016-03-10 16:08:38 UTC 
rh#1315361

WebKit/Source/core/layout/LayoutBlock.cpp in Blink, as used in Google Chrome
before 49.0.2623.75, does not properly determine when anonymous block wrappers
may exist, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect
cast and assertion failure) or possibly have unspecified other impact via
crafted JavaScript code.
