CVE-2014-3198 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Instance::HandleInputEvent function in pdf/instance.cc in the PDFium component in Google Chrome before 38.0.2125.101 interprets a certain -1 value as an index instead of a no-visible-page error code, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via unspecified vectors.. EPSS estimates a 1.25% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
