Several security issues were fixed in Oxide.
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Chromium. If a user were tricked in to opening a specially crafted website, an attacker could potentially exploit these to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, read uninitialized memory, obtain sensitive information, spoof the webview URL, bypass same origin restrictions, cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code.
