Integer Overflow in Chakra JIT Optimization Process
Chakra, the JavaScript engine used in Microsoft Edge, is vulnerable to an integer overflow in the JIT optimization process. This vulnerability occurs when an integer overflow continuously occurs in the JITed code or it's known that a value doesn't fit in an int at compile time. In such cases, Chakra considers the value to be a float, which can lead to an integer overflow. This can be exploited to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code.
Mitigation:
Microsoft has released a patch to address this vulnerability.
