CVE-2013-2918

CVE-2013-2918 describes a use-after-free vulnerability in the RenderBlock::collapseAnonymousBlockChild function within the Blink DOM implementation, affecting Google Chrome versions prior to 30.0.1599.66. This flaw, stemming from incorrect handling of parent-child relationships for anonymous blocks, could allow remote attackers to trigger a denial of service or potentially achieve other unspecified impacts. With a CVSS score of 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P), it represents a high-severity risk, indicating network-based exploitation with low complexity and potential for partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise. There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in CISA's KEV catalog, and it has received minimal community discussion and media coverage.
