    Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the Chromium browser.
    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
    the following problems:

    CVE-2011-2818

    Use-after-free vulnerability in Google Chrome allows remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via
    vectors related to display box rendering.


    CVE-2011-2800

    Google Chrome before allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive
    information about client-side redirect targets via a crafted web site.


    CVE-2011-2359

    Google Chrome does not properly track line boxes during rendering, which
    allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via unknown vectors that lead to a "stale pointer."


    Several unauthorised SSL certificates have been found in the wild issued
    for the DigiNotar Certificate Authority, obtained through a security
    compromise with said company.
    This update blacklists SSL certificates issued by DigiNotar-controlled intermediate CAs used by the Dutch PKIoverheid program.


    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 6.0.472.63~r59945-5+squeeze6.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
    version 13.0.782.220~r99552-1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 13.0.782.220~r99552-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your chromium-browser packages.
