CVE-2015-1288

Publication date 23 July 2015

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Negligible

Why this priority?

The Spellcheck API implementation in Google Chrome before 44.0.2403.89 does not use an HTTPS session for downloading a Hunspell dictionary, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to deliver incorrect spelling suggestions or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file, a related issue to CVE-2015-1263.
