## Description

The texSubImage2D implementation in the WebGL subsystem in Google Chrome
before 20.0.1132.43 does not properly handle uploads to floating-point
textures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(assertion failure and application crash) or possibly have unspecified
other impact via a crafted web page, as demonstrated by certain WebGL
performance tests, aka rdar problem 11520387.
