CVE-2015-1274 - Far off Dammit

Description

Google Chrome before 44.0.2403.89 does not ensure that the auto-open list omits all dangerous file types which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by providing a crafted file and leveraging a user’s previous \Always open files of this type\ choice related to download_commands.cc and download_prefs.cc.
