CVE-2008-7061
El gestor de "tooltips" (chrome/views/tooltip_manager.cc) de Google Chrome v0.2.149.29 Build 1798 y, posiblemente, de otras versiones anteriores a la v0.2.149.30 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de toda la CPU o caída de la aplicación) a través de una etiqueta con un atributo de título largo, que no es adecuadamente manejada cuando se muestra un "tooltip". Es una vulnerabilidad diferente a la CVE-2008-6994. NOTA: existen incosistencias en la información sobre los entornos bajo los que esta vulnerabilidad existe.
CVSS
- Puntuación base
- 4.3
- Versión
- 2.0
- Vector
- AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días
- 4.26 %
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas
- 91
- Fecha de la puntuación
- 21/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
